Three US officials revealed that the Trump administration ignored the opposition of senior Democratic members of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Senate and House of Representatives, withdrew tens of millions of dollars from military aid programs in European and Middle Eastern countries, and instead disbursed this amount to conservative-leaning governments in Latin America. Officials said that on Wednesday evening, the Trump administration quietly informed Congress that it would disregard the fund freeze order set by Congress and proceed with the fund transfer process and transfer the 52 million US dollars originally approved to Slovakia, North Macedonia, Tunisia, and Iraq to Panama, Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia.
