Trump Suspends U.S. Foreign Aid for 90 Days, Halts Programs Except for Israel, Egypt
Jan 24, 2025, 07:47 PM
President Donald Trump has issued a 90-day suspension on all U.S. foreign assistance, affecting both new and existing aid programs worldwide, according to a State Department memo. This directive, effective immediately, includes a stop-work order for existing grants and contracts, with the exception of humanitarian food programs and military aid to Israel and Egypt, which have been granted waivers. The memo, signed by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, mandates a review of all foreign assistance programs to ensure they align with Trump's foreign policy. The suspension was initiated to assess the efficiency and consistency of aid programs with U.S. interests, as outlined in an executive order signed by Trump on his first day in office.
