The US budget climbs every year, and the last few years, the FA is decreasing percentage wise compared to the years before... but then, the budgets were smaller too.

What countries send foreign aid to the US???

And what do the countries in Europe spend for all the countries in the European theater, as well as total FA worldwide?

U.S.: Congress Passes Foreign Aid Bill
By Andrew Tully

Washington, 21 December 2001 (RFE/RL) -- The U.S. Senate has given final congressional approval to legislation under which the American government would spend $15.4 billion in aid to foreign countries during the 2002 fiscal year.

The Senate voted yesterday (20 December) to approve the measure. The House passed the bill a day earlier. President George W. Bush is expected to sign it into law, even though it appropriates $200 million more than he had requested.
