Trump turned off the faucet; No more money
US President Donald Trump intends to cancel foreign aid, as well as peace operations in the amount of five billion dollars approved by Congress, the New York Post reported.
The newspaper said that Trump notified Congress on Thursday of his request to cancel the funds that were blocked during the court proceedings that ended yesterday.
As noted, the refund includes $3.2 billion in development assistance from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), $322 million from the USAID and State Department's Democracy Fund, $521 million in State Department contributions to international organizations, $393 million in State Department contributions to peace activities, and $445 million in specially planned aid for peace operations.
The spending went to a wide range of nonprofits and foreign governments and was suspended earlier this year by the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and then sued by the Global Health Council.
The District of Columbia Court of Appeals on Thursday lifted the injunction in the case.
