The World Food Programme has sounded the alarm, saying it may have to reduce its aid operations for Sudanese refugees … because of cutbacks in its funding. Four million refugees are in countries neighbouring Sudan after fleeing from the ongoing civil war, and most of them rely on aid. But that was put in jeopardy after the Trump administration slashed overseas aid budgets earlier this year. The European Union, the UK and Germany have also cut funding for foreign aid as some nations switch funding to invest in defence. So, who else can step in to fill the gap? And what will happen to the people who depend on aid to survive?
