But the truth is that the amount of foreign aid we can provide each year is very limited. To cite the example of French-speaking West African nations, the amount of foreign assistance we give them a year doesn't even amount to US $ 5 million, not even one-twentieth of the US $ l00 million that France gives them.
其實每年我們能提供的援外資金十分有限，以西非法語系國家為例，每年我國的援助金額不到五百萬美元，比起法國對此地區每年一億美元的援助金額，二十分之一不到。
