🌍 Humanitarian Aid: A Lifeline or a Political Tool? 🏥💰⚖️ Humanitarian aid is meant to uplift communities, provide relief, and save lives. But what happens when it's weaponized? When aid becomes a bargaining chip for political influence, a tool for proxy wars, or a mechanism for economic control? From USAID’s alleged involvement in regime change to the aid-dependency trap in the Global South, the line between altruism and exploitation is increasingly blurred. Who truly benefits from aid? And more importantly, who pays the price? 💬 What do you think? Should humanitarian aid be reformed, regulated, or even halted in certain cases? Share your thoughts in the comments! 👇 #HumanitarianAid #GlobalPolitics #AidOrExploitation #ForeignPolicy #Development #Geopolitics #TheHumanitarian
