US Allegedly Halts All Foreign Aid

The US State Department is reported to have sent a notice to its embassies suspending all current foreign aid, making exceptions only for urgent food aid and military financing to Israel and Egypt. According to BBC, the leaked notice stated that all foreign aid has been put on hold until reviewed and approved. Any new or existing foreign aid will not be committed to funding until further notice. Guidelines for the aid will be reviewed thoroughly within 85 days. The notice stated exceptions are made only for urgent food aid and military funding to Israel and Egypt.

This is a Significant Issue

Former Director of the Office of Weapons Trade Controls Policy at the US State Department's Directorate of Defense Trade Controls, Josh Paul, who resigned in October 2023, highlighted the potential impact of this decision on US-funded foreign aid programs. He stated, "For example, imagine suddenly being told to 'stop work' on humanitarian mine clearance programs worldwide. This is quite a significant issue." Dave Harden, former mission director for the Middle East at the US Agency for International Development (USAID), emphasized the importance of this move, stating that during the examination process, US-funded humanitarian aid and development programs could be immediately suspended.

Suspended

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on January 21, immediately after taking office, regarding foreign aid. The order stated that all departments and agencies responsible for US foreign aid programs would cease payments to foreign countries, initiating a 90-day review period to assess the program's alignment with US foreign policy.
