US ‘undermining global health’ by threatening to strip funding from aid projects that do not fit its political agenda

The Trump administration is reportedly planning to expand its 'global gag rule,' which could jeopardize funding for international aid projects that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion. This move is seen as an attempt to impose its political agenda on foreign governments and organizations, raising concerns about undermining global health initiatives and infringing on the sovereignty of other nations. Critics argue that this could have dire consequences for health programs that rely on US support, potentially stalling progress in addressing critical health issues worldwide.
