It's a despicable way of looking at humanitarianism and humanitarian aid. She criticised the way the UN had praised Donald Trump and the pledge as generous despite the many conditions placed upon it. It also points to the fact that the UN system itself is now so subservient to the American system that it is literally bowing down to just one power without actually being more objective in how it views humanitarianism and humanitarian aid, Khan said.

The United States on Monday announced a $2 billion pledge for U.N. humanitarian aid as President Donald Trump's administration continues to slash U.S. foreign assistance and warns United Nations agencies to "adapt, shrink or die" in a time of new financial realities. The money is a small fraction of what the U.S. has contributed in the past but reflects what the administration believes is a generous amount that will maintain the United States' status as the world's largest humanitarian donor.
