USAID gets new acting director - Rubio
The New Indian Express Chennai
|February 04, 2025
SECRETARY of State Marco Rubio on Monday announced USAID was not disappearing but would come under his control after Elon Musk said the humanitarian agency will be shutting down.
-
"I'm the acting director of USAID," Rubio told reporters on a visit to El Salvador, confirming the de-facto takeover of the humanitarian agency by the State Department.
Amid confusion over the future of the USAID, employees were instructed by email not to go to their offices Monday. Some 600 staffers found themselves locked out of their computer systems, ABC News reported. Around 50 demonstrators gathered outside the headquarters in downtown Washington, with signs including "Save USAID, save lives."
