Bomb-clearing in Laos may get more U.S. help
Secretary of State John Kerry said on 25 January that the United States is considering increasing financial aid to help Laos clear the countryside of unexploded ordnance left over from the Vietnam War more than four decades ago.
Speaking at the end of a one-day stop in the impoverished, communist-run country, Kerry said that no final figure has been determined, but discussions are underway to increase it.
