U.S. Drastically Cuts Humanitarian Aid

“The United States on Monday announced a $2 billion pledge for U.N. humanitarian aid as President Donald Trump’s administration continues to slash U.S. foreign assistance and warns United Nations agencies to ‘adapt, shrink or die’ in a time of new financial realities,” the AP reports.

“The money is a small fraction of what the U.S. has contributed in the past but reflects what the administration believes is a generous amount that will maintain the United States’ status as the world’s largest humanitarian donor.”
