The website of the US International Development Organization has been offline without explanation because thousands of Farlo, Reof, and programs have continued to be closed on Saturdays, and President Donald Trump has been frozen on foreign support and development provided by the United States. Ta.
The Democratic Party of Congress has expressed concern that Trump may be more open and more open, and that Trump may end the USAID as an independent institution and absorb it into the State Department. The Democratic Party says that Trump does not have the legal authority to eliminate independent institutions that have been funded to Congress, and the USAID job is essential for national security.
Trump and Republican members of Congress say that many foreign assistance and development programs are useless. They select a program to move on a liberal social agenda.
Two weeks after the hundreds of dollars of US humanitarian, development and security support, the fear of USAID’s more strict management measures are closed.
The United States is the world’s largest humanitarian donor. It spends less than 1 % of the budget for foreign support, and is more overall than in some other countries.
There were no comments on Saturdays when a member of the Diet or others was concerned that Trump might be planning to end the USAID as an independent institution.
President John F. Kennedy created a USAID during the peak of the Cold War to counter the Soviet influence. Congress passed the Foreign aid Law in 1961, and Kennedy signed the law and presidential order to establish USAID as an independent institution. Today’s USAID is at the center of US issues on the rise of China. This succeeds in the foreign aid program of its own “belt and road”.
The USAID staff spent a group chat on Friday and Saturdays, monitored the fate of the institution, and set the USAID flag and signs to be still outside the Washington headquarters. They were late on Saturday afternoon.
On a Friday post, Konnetcut Senator Chris Murphy said that President could not eliminate the federal agencies assigned to Congress by the Presidential Ordinance, and Trump “doubled constitutional crisis. He said he was ready to defeat.
“That’s what the tyrannical monarch, who is trying to steal the billionaire’s Caval, who wants to steal the taxpayer’s money,” said Murphy.
The billionaire Iron Mask advised Trump in a campaign to defeat the federal government under the name of efficiency, and approved a post on his X site to disband the USAID.
“Live in the presidential decree, dies in the presidential order,” said the mask on Saturday in connection with USAID.
Trump frozen for 90 days for an unprecedented 90 -day foreign aid on the first day of taking office on January 20. A few days later, the Ministry of State has frozen almost all foreign aids around the world, closed thousands of programs around the world, and forced thousands of fouls and Reof. 。
Secretary Marco Rubio later moved to maintain an emergency program that saves more strict life as frozen. The aid group says that the confusion surrounding which program is operated contributes to the paralysis of a global assistance organization.
Rubio stated in the first public comment on Thursday that the USAID program has been reviewed to eliminate those that are not in national interests, but he has nothing to say about excluding USAID as an agency. Ta.
Rubio states that the closing of the program provided by the United States during the 90 -day review means that the United States has “gained more cooperation from the winners of humanitarian, development, and security support.” Ta.
Republican members and the Democratic Party are discussing whether humanitarian and development assistance will protect the United States by supporting partner and economic stability, or whether it is a waste of money, and for many years. I have come. Republican members usually promote the Ministry of State to provide more control of USAID policies and funds, and the Democratic Party usually builds USAID autonomy and authority.
A legal battle that took place in Trump’s first term when the president tried to reduce the budget of foreign operations in one -third.
When the parliament refused, the Trump administration has reduced the flow of funds that have already been allocated by Congress for foreign programs, using freezes and other tactics. The general accounting firm later ruled that it violated the law known as the Storage Management Law.
