Summary

Sweden, Norway, and the Netherlands are demanding refunds from Trump after $15 million in USAID contributions for the Water and Energy for Food (WE4F) project remained unspent.

The project aimed to help farmers grow more food without straining water resources, but USAID froze the funds following Trump’s cuts to foreign aid.

The countries expressed frustration over a lack of response from USAID and warned they might go public.

The funding freeze harms 6 million vulnerable farmers, and donor nations are seeking alternatives to continue WE4F.
