Trump to Sign Executive Order on First Day Halting Foreign Aid Not Aligned With U.S. Interests, Including UNRWA Funding
Jan 20, 2025, 04:54 PM
President Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order on his first day back in office, aiming to halt all new foreign aid unless it aligns with U.S. strategic interests. This move is part of a broader foreign aid crackdown intended to prevent American funds from supporting groups linked to terrorism or anti-American agendas. Specifically, the order is expected to immediately stop funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), which has been accused of ties to Hamas. The decision reflects Trump's 'America First' policy, aiming to realign U.S. foreign aid with national interests and subject all new aid payments to review by the Secretary of State.
