USA requires El Salvador to buy Monsanto GMO seeds or receive no more aid money - NETZFRAUEN.org in GERMANY

As one of the preconditions to authorizing close to $300 million in aid, the United States is pressuring El Salvador to purchase genetically modified seeds from Monsanto instead of non-GM seeds from local farmers.

The US will reportedly withhold $277 million in aid through the Millennium Challenge Compact if El Salvador refuses to purchase GM seeds from the biotech / chemical company Monsanto.
