Grant Description
On November 18, 2015, the Ministries of Defense of China and Ecuador signed a Free Military Assistance Agreement, which provided a grant of 20 million RMB for the provision of materials to address natural disaster risks, such as the El Niño phenomenon and the eventual eruption of the Cotopaxi volcano.
On February 18, 2016, the protocol agreement was signed between the same two Ministries, specifying the materials to be granted.

The entire 20 million RMB provided in the Free Military Assistance Agreement was utilized for this grant.
