Kuwait says $30 billion pledged to rebuild Iraq
Kuwait says a total of $30 billion in pledges have been made at a summit on rebuilding Iraq after the Islamic State war.
The announcement falls short of the $88.2 billion requested by Iraq, however it is far higher than the amount previously announced by those taking part.
“The commitment of the international community at the conference was clear,” says Kuwaiti Foreign Minister Sheikh Sabah al-Khaled Al-Sabah, adding that 76 countries, numerous international funds and global organizations had made pledges.
