USAID bypassed govt channels to fund $29 million political project: Bangladesh official
USAID allocated $29 million to a controversial political project in Bangladesh without passing funds through official channels, as confirmed by Bangladesh's NGO affairs bureau. Despite the controversy, support for Rohingya-related projects remains unaffected. The funding issue arises from accusations by President Trump on the nature of the fund's allocation, criticizing a small firm's receipt of the money.
