International aid - Standpoint image 4

I think international aid does more good than harm.

The first reason is because international aid can give important things like food, clothes and other supplies. This can really help when countries are having a difficult time, especially after disasters.

Another reason is that international aid can send help quickly when something bad happens. For example, if there is a big disaster, other countries can send supplies and support to help people.

Also, when disasters happen, many buildings and homes can be destroyed. International aid can help by sending medical supplies and other support so people can recover.

Some people might disagree and say international aid can cause problems because countries might become too dependent on help from other countries.

However, I still think international aid is important because it helps people who are suffering and need support.

For example, when disasters happen, international aid can send doctors and nurses so injured people can get treatment.

So I think international aid does more good than harm because it helps people when they need it most.
