摘要

From a policy and legal perspective, providing support for demobilization has beenrnchallenging for USAID because of the legal restrictions on providing assistance to foreignrnmilitaries and inflexibilities of development assistance. Staff have found creative solutionsrnenabling USAID to be supportive and still uphold the spirit of the legislation. Congressionalrnappropriations, such as the Demobilization and Transition Fund (DTF) for El Salvador andrnthe African Disaster Account (ADA), have been important vehicles for USAIDrninvolvement.
