Reading this article reminds me of that Propublica article that was posted before (Trump Officials Celebrated With Cake After Slashing Aid. Then People Died of Cholera.)
Apparently according to the article,
*In a statement to the AP, the State Department said the U.S. has provided more than $168 million to the Rohingya since the beginning of Trump’s term, although data from the U.N.’s financial tracking service show the U.S. contribution in 2025 is $156 million. Asked about the disparity, the State Department said the U.N.’s financial tracking service had not been recently updated and “generally does not show the latest information on all U.S. funding.”*
*The department said it had “advanced burden sharing and improved efficiency” in the Rohingya response, resulting in 11 countries increasing their funding by more than 10% year on year, collectively contributing $72 million.*
*The department didn’t respond to the AP’s request for evidence that the U.S. had influenced other countries’ funding decisions for the Rohingya response.*
So the US is putting back some aid there but Idk if it will be enough, reverse the damages they caused or if they are actually putting aid there since the numbers are not matching.
Finally, the article title was changed to “Trafficked, exploited, married off: Rohingya children’s lives crushed by foreign aid cuts”

I am deeply sorry.
