SHOCKING US STATE DEPARTMENT FREEZE ON FOREIGN AID
New Secretary of State Marco Rubio freezes new funding for nearly all US aid programs worldwide for 90 days. It appears to apply to military assistance to Ukraine but with exceptions to Israel and Egypt.
This means no further actions will be taken to disperse aid funding to programs already approved by the US government.
"State just totally went nuclear on foreign assistance," said a State Department official
