Nobody likes to dance for their dinner.

Whenever money is given, there are always strings attached. If you don't like the strings, don't accept the money.

BurningB - exactly how much funding for UNRWA comes from Russia? I looked it up for 2017:

Japan is a very respectable $43.4M.

Russia is #36 with $2.0M.

The USA was #1 with $364M.

Australia has a little less GDP as Russia and they donated $17.6M.

Let's not forget China - $350K.
