TBILISI, Georgia - A U.S. Navy ship loaded with humanitarian aid steamed through the Dardanelles en route to Georgia on Wednesday, as the Bush administration prepared to roll out a $1 billion economic aid package for the former Soviet republic.
The multiyear proposal calls for spending about half of the money in the Bush administration's remaining five months in office and recommending that the incoming president keep funding the project when he takes over in January, a senior U.S. official said.
