agree to all international aid?

[Torsten]

Yesterday I heard a BBC reporter say "... urging the Burmese government to agree to all international aid..."

I think I understand why in this case 'agree to' rather than 'agree with' is used and I would like your opinion on this. When would you use 'agree to + noun' and 'agree with + noun'?

Thanks,
Torsten

I think,

1. 'agree with' has a sence of 'in accordance with' usually followed by somebody or something in association with (his/her) opinion, plan, etc.
2. 'agree to' = has a sence of 'accept' followed by somebody or something in association with (his/her) offer, assertion, etc.

I also think in many cases they overlap each other.

[Jamie (K)]

In "agree to" there is a sense that some cooperation and participation will be happening, or at least a lack of interference. You can agree with something but remain silent and not participate.

"urging the Burmese government to agree to all international aid being allowed into the country/being dispersed to the regions, etc."
