US suspends new funds for aid programmes excepting Israel and Egypt

ai generated text

The Trump administration has issued a directive affecting foreign aid, freezing new funding for various projects and services globally. The memo, sent to officials and US embassies abroad, applies to development assistance and military aid, with exceptions made only for emergency food aid and for military funding designated for Israel and Egypt.

    Filippo Grandi
    UN High Commissioner for Refugees
    1. We must proceed very carefully over the next few weeks to mitigate the impact of this funding uncertainty on refugees and displaced people, on our operations and on our teams.
  2. PT
    António Guterres
    United Nations
    1. The Secretary-General calls for additional exemptions to be considered to ensure the continued delivery of critical development and humanitarian activities.
  3. US
    US State Department
    1. No new funds shall be obligated for new awards or extensions of existing awards until each proposed new award or extension has been reviewed and approved.

    Patty Murray
    Democratic Party
    1. The scope of what you are ordering is breathtaking, unprecedented, and will have devastating consequences across the country.
  5. US
    Chuck Schumer
    Democratic Party
    1. It will mean missed payrolls and rent payments and everything in between: chaos for everything from universities to non-profit charities.
  6. US
    Jeremy Konyndyk
    US Agency for International Development
    1. This will kill people. I mean, if implemented as written in that cable … a lot of people will die.

    Josh Paul
    US State Department
    1. One can imagine, for example, the humanitarian de-mining programmes around the world suddenly being told stop work. That's a pretty big deal.
  8. US
    Tammy Bruce
    US State Department
    1. For far too long, the United States foreign aid industry and bureaucracy have not been aligned with American interests, and in many cases, antithetical to American values.
    2. Reviewing and realigning foreign assistance on behalf of hardworking taxpayers is not just the right thing to do, it is a moral imperative.
