USAID is a US soft power tool to fund militant groups, regime change, project US dominance and to destabilize nations who don’t fall in line. Any good it did was accidental.
It was also a soft power tool used to assist and feed allied countries and keep diplomatic support from the good it did with starving and otherwise vulnerable populations. It’s not a net loss, but it is not a gain either. Its disappearance hurts millions of people who depended on the aid to feed their families or support basic economic production.
