Suspension of USAID Operations: New Challenges for Ukraine

This information is available on the website's page.

On January 25, 2025, the U.S. announced a temporary suspension of all non-military international aid for 90 days. At that time, USAID representatives indicated that they had been ordered to halt all projects in Ukraine.

Reuters sources familiar with the discussions reported on January 31 that the Trump administration intends to limit the agency's independence, placing it under the control of the U.S. State Department.

Reminder:

The suspension of USAID funding may significantly impact Ukraine's agricultural sector, prompting the government to seek solutions and alternative funding sources.
