Прикол в том, что США это особо и не скрывают. =)))
The United States has been Georgia’s largest bilateral aid donor, budgeting cumulative aid of $1.9 billion in fiscal years 1992 through 2007 (FREEDOM Support Act and agency funds). Georgia has regularly ranked among the top world states in terms of per capita U.S. aid, indicating the high level of concern for its fate within the Administration and Congress. Estimated budgeted aid for FY2008 is $66.4 million, and the Administration requested
$69.2 million for FY2009 (both these aid amounts include FREEDOM Support Act and other foreign assistance, but do not include Defense and Energy Department funds). The U.S. Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) announced in May 2004 that Georgia met required democratic and economic reform criteria and would be invited to apply for aid. In August 2005, the MCC approved a five-year, $295.3 million agreement (termed a “compact”) with Georgia on building infrastructure, setting up a small business investment fund, and creating agricultural grants.

In the wake of the August 2008 Russia-Georgia conflict (see below), Secretary of State Rice announced plans for $1 billion in U.S. foreign assistance for Georgia (above that already allocated or planned for FY2008-FY2009). USAID Administrator Henrietta Fore specified in late October 2008 that $720 million would be provided in 2008 in the form of loans and grants, and $280 million in 2009 (by a new U.S. Administration). Of the $1 billion, $250 million would be used for direct budget support, $100 million for urgent civilian reconstruction, and $360 million for other reconstruction needs. Also included would be $100 million in new MCC funding for Georgia and over $150 million in Overseas Private Investment Corporation loans and guarantees for construction, manufacturing, and affordable mortgages.
