International donors pledged 1.8 billion euros ($2.4 billion) to war-torn Somalia on Monday, European Commission head Jose Manuel Barroso said, at the end of a conference tasked with creating a "New Deal" for the country.

"We have commitments for 1.8 billion euros," Barroso said, about double what the European Union had hoped to raise at the one-day meeting in Brussels.
