Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced on Monday that he was a deputy director of the US International Development Organization (USAID).
Rubio told reporters, “I delegated the authority to someone, but I have been in contact with him.” The USAID administrator was previously Jason Gray. CNN asked the Ministry of State if Rubio was referenced.
While in El Salvador on a trip to the Central America, Rubio claimed that USAID was a “unresponsive institution.”
“Our goal was to adjust foreign assistance according to national interests, but when I go to the mission and the embassy after the embassy around the world, the USAID is often the case. Or, we’ll notice that we are involved in the program that we are trying to do in our national strategy.
Nevertheless, when asked about the important work discussions in USAID’s national security, Rubio stated:
Several context: President Donald Trump has signed an institution that he has come after the world’s most wealthy person in the world’s overhaul, the world’s most wealthy person in the overhaul.
Congressmakers and aid workers have been brave in which Trump completely closed Agency and put it under the Umbrella of the State Department.
In Washington, the USAID headquarters was closed for the day, and employees were told to be at home by email. On the weekend, two USAID security staff took a management leave to reject members of the government’s government’s efficiency access.
The three information states that DOGE representatives wanted to access the USAID security system and personnel files. Two of these information sources said that DOGE representatives want access to classified information.
