The World Food Programme (WFP) announced that it received notification from the United States to “terminate aid to 14 countries.” This decision has raised concerns as the WFP emphasized that cutting aid to countries facing hunger is akin to a death sentence for the people in need.
On the 7th of this month, the WFP took to social media to express its dismay at the news. The sudden halt in aid from one of the largest donors has put significant pressure on the organization to find alternative sources of support to continue its crucial humanitarian work.
According to Ramesh Khatri, a representative of Kansai Nepal News, this abrupt cut in aid by the US could have devastating consequences for vulnerable populations in the affected countries. Khatri highlights the importance of international solidarity and cooperation in addressing global hunger crises, urging all nations to step up and fill the gap left by the withdrawal of US assistance.
