Critics say a Trump administration order calls into question the United States’ global standing and reliability.

On Friday, a community health and social services clinic called Comunidad AVES shuttered its doors indefinitely in response to the order, shelter leaders told inewsource. A handwritten note on a whiteboard outside read in Spanish: We will not be providing services for the moment.

Food distribution is being stopped. Health services are being shut down. Lifesaving aid is being tied up, with no way to disburse it. These aren’t warnings of what’s to come, but examples of what aid workers say is the fallout of the Trump administration’s freeze on foreign aid and the gutting of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

J ames Akot has three goats. He shares them with his wife, his mother, three younger siblings, and two of his cousin's children, in a household in Northern Bahr el Ghazal in South Sudan. The crops Akot's family planted were washed away in the floods last year, the fourth and worst flood in the region in four consecutive years.

Development organizations that program and deliver billions of dollars in U.S. humanitarian aid warn they may have to shut down.

The extent of the impacts of the Trump administration’s sudden 90-day freeze of almost all foreign aid is still unclear almost a week on, as officials and aid workers overseas try to make sense of which activities must be suspended.

President Trump’s pause on aid, and the gutting of the primary aid agency, could jeopardize the health of more than 20 million people worldwide, including 500,000 children, experts say.

As the Trump administration moves to dramatically cut the United States' international aid budget, some volunteers from Prince Edward Island are beginning to see the impact firsthand, particularly on efforts to prevent and treat HIV/AIDS.

Trump, announcing the aid freeze on his first day in office, said all foreign assistance would be evaluated as to whether it makes the United States safer, stronger and more prosperous.

The US foreign aid freeze could lead to more people being trafficked into online fraud compounds in Asia and more Americans and Australians being scammed, experts say.
