Iryna Vereshchuk, deputy head of the Prosecutor General's Office, called the temporary suspension of USAID funding unexpected and unpleasant news. She reported this in Telegram, according to UNN.
Details
According to Vereshchuk, the fact that USAID has stopped funding all programs and projects in Ukraine is unexpected and unpleasant news for both the government and the public sector, but this is not the first or last challenge that Ukraine must overcome.
I am in charge of the humanitarian response, and a 90-day pause from a key donor cannot but be disconcerting. But I am confident that we will stabilize everything on the humanitarian front,
She also added that substantive consultations with American partners will begin soon to continue funding humanitarian response projects in Ukraine as soon as possible.
To stabilize the situation, the official called on project teams to keep people and developments.
Recall
The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) in Ukraine has been ordered to suspend all projects and expenditures following the U.S. State Department's order to suspend aid programs to other countries for 90 days for an audit.
