💨 Abstract

The Trump administration official overseeing USAID proposed phasing out aid for crisis-torn Lebanon and Rohingya, wanting them to express gratitude for U.S. support. The acting USAID deputy administrator, Peter Marocco, requested an action memo from Tim Meisburger to outline options for reducing U.S. aid and seeking something in return. The email did not specify the nature of the "consideration or good faith" expected from the recipients.
