The US stops practically all overseas help as Trump pushes America-First coverage.
For many years, america has been the biggest single donor of aid globally.
Final 12 months, it supplied greater than 40 % of the UN’s humanitarian help funds.
However now, most overseas help by the Division of State has been frozen for 90 days, with solely emergency meals programmes and army help to Israel and Egypt exempted.
The help helps initiatives starting from well being and training to safety and battle.
So what could possibly be the results of the US freeze on help, each for itself, and different nations?
And the way will it reshape Washington’s relations with the world?
