    230 Thousand People Got Material Aid from "Fund of Mutual
    Understanding and Reconciliation" Since August 2001


    Moscow. The federal official body "Fund of mutual understanding and
    reconciliation" and the Savings Bank of Russia have been making
    payments of material aid to the citizens injured of national
    socialism within the World War Two from means of the German Fund
    "Memory, Responsibility and Future" since August 2001, and since

    and Cooperation". For the period of payments, 230 thousand people got

    Payments are made in more than 7 thousand branches of the Savings Bank
    of Russia, located in 2400 settlements of the Russian Federation from

    The Savings Bank of Russia transfers sums of material aid to the
    citizens living outside the Russian Federation on their accounts
    opened in foreign banks. The greatest number of addressees is living
