美援署冻结外国援助,影响加拿大的项目,并让数千人休假。 USAID freezes foreign aid, affecting Canadian projects and putting thousands on leave.

美国通过美援署对大部分外援实行90天冻结,使许多加拿大援助项目陷入困境。 The U.S. has imposed a 90-day freeze on most foreign aid through USAID, leaving numerous Canadian aid projects in limbo. 此举旨在审查支出与美国利益是否一致,使数千名美援署工作人员休假,使数百万人无法获得救生用品。 This move, intended to review spending alignment with American interests, has placed thousands of USAID staff on leave and cut off millions from lifesaving supplies. 加拿大援助团体,如加拿大合作组织,警告“灾难性”影响,并敦促渥太华填补因美国暂停援助而留下的资金缺口。 Canadian aid groups, like Cooperation Canada, warn of a "catastrophic" impact and urge Ottawa to fill funding gaps left by the U.S. suspension.
