UN Humanitarian Aid Requires Backup Plan Amid US Commitment Fears
The United Nations leadership and its member countries are urged to develop a backup plan to ensure the continuation of lifesaving humanitarian aid and human rights initiatives.
This necessity arises from concerns surrounding the reliability of the United States, which is the UN's top financial contributor, in fulfilling its commitments.
Since assuming office, President Donald J. Trump has enacted numerous executive orders that have significant consequences for millions globally, including his directive to suspend the majority of foreign aid.
These funding cuts adversely affect various critical UN programs.
