Where USAID money was going

THE STAR INFOGRAPHIC

In the 2023 financial year, the US Agency for International Development (USAID) disbursed billions in foreign aid, with Ukraine receiving the highest amount at $16 billion.

Other major recipients included Ethiopia ($1.67 billion), Jordan ($1.19 billion), Afghanistan ($1.08 billion), and Somalia ($1.04 billion).

The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Syria, Nigeria, Yemen, and South Sudan also received substantial funding.

 US President Donald Trump has since disbanded USAID.
