WASHINGTON, Jan 8 (NNN-XINHUA) — The United States has suspended all assistance to Somalia’s federal government, the State Department said.
“The United States is deeply concerned by reports that Federal Government of Somalia officials have destroyed a U.S.-funded World Food Programme warehouse and illegally seized 76 metric tons of donor-funded food aid for vulnerable Somalis,” the department’s account for the under secretary for foreign assistance said on social platform X.
“The Trump Administration has a zero-tolerance policy for waste, theft, and diversion of life-saving assistance,” it added. — NNN-XINHUA
