Trump to reduce allocation of Tk 600 crore to Bangladesh's allocation

 Refusing to recognize President Donald Trump as the Israeli capital of Jerusalem, the United Nations General Assembly passed the vote after Bangladesh did not specifically confirm its threat, but financial support is decreasing for Bangladesh. Many people have assumed that the effect of the threat of the trampered threats has started.

In 2017, $ 22 million was allocated (about $ 700 billion), Washington was allocated, In 2013, it decreased 40 percent (about 600 crores) to 134.8 million dollars. Bangladesh has been ranked 25th in the list of US aid received by Trump Administration. This information comes from the US Department of Foreign Assistance.

Trump government has reduced the amount of US aid in almost half of the countries. This year only the country has provided only two and a half billion dollars in this sector. Most of them will be in allied countries like Israel, Egypt. This year the US aid is reduced in many other countries including Bangladesh. The country offers annual funding in various sectors in almost 150 countries. Funds allocated for the year through foreign, defense ministry or USAID Fund. After taking over the responsibility of Donald Trump, the international development budget announced a three-part reduction. In the new year's plan, nearly half of the US foreign aid was reduced. In the past few years, the average budget for this sector was approximately $ 4.5 billion, allocated to Washington, This year it has come down only to two and a half thousand crores.

Despite the United States' threatening to write down names and financial assistance, 128 nations voted in favor of the majority vote in the UN General Assembly's emergency session, and nine countries voted against it. 35 countries abstained from voting. Many close friends of the United States, including Britain, France, Germany, Saudi Arabia, Japan, voted for the proposal.

Non-binding, although there is no legal obligation to follow this proposal, it shows the UN policy position in this regard.

Prior to the vote, President Trump threatened that those who support this proposal will vote for their financial assistance to close America. Before the vote, the Palestinian Foreign Minister called upon the states to reject the "intimidation and blackmail" of America.

Canada and Mexico are among the countries which do not vote. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said after voting, they are rejecting the results of this election. He also termed the UN as a liar for the falsehood. In December last year, the US threatened to stop the financial support of the opposition during the United Nations voting on the issue of trampling trump.

Finally, he was threatened by Pakistan and Palestine. The United States has been losing support to the one-time ally in Pakistan for years in the fight against terrorism. Three years ago, only $ 34 million was spent in Islamabad for the $ 150 million available in Islamabad. But while reducing foreign aid, the amount of aid to both the Middle East's two main ally Israel and Egypt is the same as before.
