Powell says tsunami-hit area needs more aid

News Update

US Secretary of State Colin Powell, in a tele-interview with the NBC's "Today" program Wednesday, said that the tsunami-hit nations need a great deal of help and the priority now is to get the international aid distributed.

Powell, who is currently on a visit to the tsunami-hit South Asian and Southeast Asian countries and is expected to return to the United States later Wednesday, said the situation in the tsunami-struck areas is pretty bad.

"It is pretty bad. I do not know how bad it can get ...Until you have flown over this area and seen the extent of the damage, you really do not understand what this tsunami did," Powell said.
