Trump Halts US Foreign Aid for 90 Days to Ensure Alignment with American Interests
Jan 21, 2025, 02:05 AM
President Donald Trump has ordered a 90-day pause on all US foreign aid to assess program efficiency and alignment with American foreign policy objectives. Announced on January 20, 2025, the executive order mandates that all foreign development assistance programs be reviewed to ensure they "align with American interests" and do not "run antithetical to American values." Departments and agencies are required to suspend new obligations during this period while the programs undergo assessment. The pause aims to realign foreign aid with US foreign policy and address concerns over the effectiveness of current aid programs.
