APPENDIX F
POST-LIBERATION FOREIGN AID TO GREECE
Since liberation, October 1944, Greece has received almost $1.5 billion in foreign
aid, as follows:
UNRRA
$354,000,000
US
546,500,000
UK
528,000,000
Other relief
18,051,000
TOTAL
1,446,551,000 (excluding reparations)
With the exception of the $340 million extended Greece by the US in May 1947 under
the Truman Doctrine and the European Relief Program, most of the foreign grants have
been expended. The $340 million was originally planned to carry Greece through June
1948. Accelerated imports and increased military costs, however, were expected to
exhaust AMAG funds by mid-April. Further US aid under ERP and the extended
Greek-Turkish Aid Bill (pending Congressional approval) is tentatively scheduled at
$200 million for fiscal 1949 military aid, and $55 million economic aid from April through
June 1948.
