00:08Driven by an America First approach, US President Donald Trump cut 80% of the US Agency for

00:14International Development's contracts in early 2025.

00:19European governments have also slashed aid this year, diverting budgets to fund defence

00:23and rearmament faced with Russia's military threat.

00:27According to predictions, government-funded humanitarian aid could contract between 34%

00:33and 45% by the end of the year in comparison with 2023.

00:38Despite 2025 marking a turning point, record cuts to aid already began in 2024, reversing

00:45a decade-long upward funding trend.

01:06EU institutions dropped by 12.7%.
