The European Union will provide additional 70 million euro ($76.09 million) to help enhance food and nutrition security, improve the rule of law and establish peace in Myanmar, the regional grouping said on Monday.
Under the provision, EU will contribute to reducing poverty and improving food and nutrition security through a new aquaculture programme, Xinhua cited an EU release as saying.
EU will continue its support to the reform of the police in its transition into a modern police service.
The grouping will also increase its support for efforts to achieve a lasting peace in Mynamar.
Since the start of reforms in 2011, the EU has lifted sanctions, allocated substantial funding, initiated programmes and encouraged further reforms, said EU Ambassador to Myanmar Roland Kobia. (Courtesy of Business Standard News)
