Finland will resume funding for UNRWA

The Finnish Minister of Foreign Trade and Development confirmed on Friday that his country will resume providing funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA).


“UNRWA improving its risk management, which means preventing misconduct and starting to monitor it more closely, provides sufficient guarantees for us at this stage to continue our support,” said Finnish Minister of Foreign Trade and Development Welle Tavio.


He continued by saying during a press conference that some of the Finnish funds will be allocated to risk management.


Countries including Canada, Australia and Sweden have resumed funding for UNRWA, while several other countries have increased funding for the agency after the recent Israeli campaign.
