I agree with both of these .........
Some of the countries offering need it moreso, but it is great they offered. I think it is interesting how we complain about sending aid to others (which I am not a fan of in some cases) and yet here they are wanting to help us. And not for political reasons.
I also find it interesting to see who hasn't offered.
