The proposed aid of €60.2 million to Serbia, €8.96 million to Croatia and €10.5 million to Bulgaria is to help cover part of the emergency costs incurred by the public authorities in these three countries due to the disasters.
In particular, it will help to restore vital infrastructure and services, reimburse the cost of emergency and rescue operations, and help cover some of the clean-up costs in the disaster-stricken regions.
Serbia suffered the worst of the damage. The floods most severely hit the districts of Kolubara, Macva, Moravica District, Pomoravlje, and part of Belgrade, with detrimental effects for some 1.6 million inhabitants.
