Germany, where combined public and private aid for tsunami victims has reached $1.1 billion (making it the largest international donor), says that it would like its aid to be used to foster peace settlements. A worthy goal, but successful models do not come readily to mind.
对海啸灾民的公共和私人捐助总和已达11亿美元的德国（成为国际上捐资最多的国家）表示希望捐助能够解决和平问题。为此目标值得一试，但到目前为止尚无此类成功范例。
