Trump to Halt Foreign Aid, Including UNRWA Funding, Under America First Policy
Jan 20, 2025, 03:02 PM
President Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order on his first day in office, halting all new foreign aid unless it aligns with U.S. strategic goals. The move aims to prevent American taxpayer funds from being allocated to groups that work against U.S. interests or promote agendas such as diversity, equity, and inclusion. This executive order is expected to immediately stop funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), which has been accused of having ties to Hamas. The order reflects Trump's America First policy, signaling a significant shift in U.S. foreign aid strategy. The decision to review all new aid payments by the Secretary of State underscores a broader realignment of U.S. foreign aid to better match national interests.
