France says 3.25 billion euros pledged for Mali
        
International donors pledged more than 3.25 billion euros ($4.22 billion) on Wednesday to help Mali recover after a conflict with al Qaeda-linked Islamists, French President Francois Hollande said.        

The sum exceeds the goals of Mali which had asked donors for nearly two billion euros for this year and next.          

"It has been confirmed to me that more than 3.25 billion euros have been mobilised at this conference," Hollande said in a speech to the donors' conference in Brussels. ($1 = 0.7705 euros)
