As a result of the ongoing civil war, Yemen is suffering the largest humanitarian crisis in the world. USAID provides humanitarian assistance to Yemenis in need, ensuring that the most vulnerable receive lifesaving assistance throughout the humanitarian crisis. Through the offices of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance and Food for Peace, USAID supports interventions including emergency food assistance, medical treatment and vaccination support for children, emergency obstetric services for women, blankets and household goods for displaced families, and hygiene kits and water treatment supplies to reduce the spread of disease. While humanitarian assistance is crucial, it will not rebuild key social and economic institutions or foster Yemen's future resilience. USAID therefore relaunched development assistance support to Yemen in 2017 to complement our humanitarian assistance efforts. Development assistance activities aim to strengthen the ability of Yemeni institutions to meet citizens needs and build a stronger foundation for durable peace and prosperity. USAID's approach involves working with the Republic of Yemen Government, development partners, the private sector, and civil society by providing greater access to basic social services and economic opportunities, building more responsive local and national institutions, and supporting conflict mitigation at the local level. The programs are highly adaptable to respond to rapidly changing conditions and needs.
Thanks for all of your posts. STOP the AID to foreign nations. America ONLY.
Yemen is a hot bed of terrorist activity. Give them nothing!
Keep them coming... The whole perspective needs to come out for what it is.
Do you mean aid should stop going to Canada too? They are our friends after all. (That’s massive sarcasm. Aid needs to stop going to Canada too.)
Only where US interests are derectly involved. Eg, certainly not Ukraine.
A re-assertive Russia is not our concern?
F’em. No more money.
No, it does not involve us.
Obama and Saudi Arabia invaded Yemen, and Trump and Biden continued the invasion.
Pull the other one.
People get crucified in Yemen
And elsewhere in the ME
