The conference called aid to Afghanistan with the participation of the United Nations leaders, the head of the International Red Cross Committee Peter Maurer and dozens of representatives from many governments, including Foreign Minister Heiko Maas

The United Nations hopes to raise $ 606 million, of which 1/3 is devoted to the World Food Program (WFP).

Just before the Taliban controls Afghanistan, about 18 million people, equivalent to half of the population, lived depending on aid sources.

Countries suddenly stopped billions of dollars for Afghanistan after the collapse of the old government, the more difficult to this country.
