EUobserver reports on the latest report published, on 6 April 2011, by the European Commission and OECD related to the development aid goals for 2010. The figure represents a rise of €4.5 billion on the previous year, but at 0.43 percent of the EU's gross national income (GNI), was below the 0.56 percent target set by EU countries in 2005. As thousands of refugees continue to flee tough conditions in northern Africa for Europe, EU development commissioner Andris Piebalgs warned that the bloc's current aid levels are ultimately unacceptable, despite the improvement. |
