A D.C. judge has mandated the Trump administration to lift restrictions on billions of dollars in foreign aid, particularly for humanitarian assistance like HIV medication. However, many aid groups in Ethiopia are facing significant issues accessing this aid. They report that the waivers meant to facilitate emergency funding are ineffective, resulting in HIV-positive children being without medication for extended periods, leading to fears about their survival and well-being. This situation highlights the gap between judicial mandates and on-the-ground realities for those in need of aid.
In Washington, D.C., the court mandates the release of foreign aid, but on the ground in Ethiopia, HIV aid groups struggle to access necessary funds, endangering lives.
Despite court orders for humanitarian aid waivers, organizations in Ethiopia report a severe lack of support, leaving many HIV-positive children without critical medications for weeks.
