US Presidential Administration Donald Trump has resumed $ 5.3 billion of frozen foreign aid, mainly for safety programs and drug fighting, with limited humanitarian aid funding.
Reuters writes about it.
After joining the post of January 20, Trump ordered a 90-day pause to provide foreign aid, which led to the cessation of funding for programs aimed at fighting famine, fatal diseases and asylum to millions of displaced persons around the world.
State Secretary Marco Rubio issued exceptional payments in late January for military assistance of Israel and Egypt, as well as for rescue humanitarian aid, including food.
However, most of the recovered funds, more than $ 4.1 billion, will be directed to programs that are administered by the US Department of Political and Military Affairs, which sells weapons and military assistance to other countries and groups.
In addition, less than $ 100 million will be allocated to USAID programs that have been reduced from the annual budget of about $ 40 billion.
Critics say that reducing humanitarian aid can lead to long -term global security issues.
