Russia
In March 1998, the United States and Russia
began collaborating to control the spread of HIV and other
sexually transmitted infections (STIs) after a visit by
high-ranking AIDS experts from Russia to the United States.
USAID, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),
and Population Services International (PSI)/AIDSMark worked
with the Russian Ministry of Health to develop a multi-year
strategy (1998-2000) aimed at HIV prevention among high-risk
groups. Under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, Russia received nearly $10.3 million in Fiscal Year (FY) 2004, approximately $14 million in FY 2005, approximately $13.9 million in FY 2006, and is providing $14.6 million in FY 2007 to support an integrated HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment and care program.
