Chancellor Angela Merkel has called on Germans to donate for Pakistan. Around 7.5 million € are there shortly after the show and the phones are still far from. The total climbs still to € 7,984,388, so the official final score.

"The people of Pakistan deserve our help," said the Chancellor on the evening in the ZDF broadcast "aid to Pakistan". Remember, donations could possibly fall into the wrong hands, they rejected it: "One can be sure that aid does not reach the hands of terrorists." Aid organizations would be familiar and well bring donations directly to those affected.

"Pakistan remains on the agenda"
This Merkel met criticism on the Facebook page today, according to ZDF. "One of the government can not trust because below," commented Chris K. "The poor people would help you a lot, but the money is not likely." Rdiger B. wonders, however, whether "the reference to the political situation in Pakistan was not in reality only a pretext." Who would send his donation reputable organizations could be sure that nothing lands on the Taliban, or was being spent on arms purchases.
