The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) disbursed over 20 percent of its foreign assistance funds to Ukraine in 2023. According to data published by the federal government, Ukraine received more than $16 billion out of the $72 billion distributed by the agency.
Ethiopia received the second-highest allocation from USAID. However, at just $1.7 billion, the sum pales in comparison to the funds granted to Ukraine. In addition, Jordan, Afghanistan, and Somalia received just over $1 billion in USAID assistance. Meanwhile, Congo, Syria, Nigeria, Yemen, and South Sudan received aid ranging from $740 million to $936 million.
