After months of significant budget cuts and restructuring, the State Department has formally announced the dissolution of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). This decision follows a series of actions taken by the Trump administration to eliminate the agency, including the firing of remaining staff and a transfer of its programming to the State Department. Critics warn that the cuts could have dire consequences for vulnerable populations worldwide, citing concerns over medical care, aid effectiveness, and increased opportunities for rival nations to step in. As the U.S. steps back from its traditional role in foreign aid, the international community is left to ponder what a world without this support would look like.
