美国国务卿马可·鲁比奥于2025年3月10日宣布，特朗普政府将取消美国国际开发署83%的外援项目，并将剩余项目并入国务院，让国务院管理美国国际开发署剩余的约1000个项目。这一举措将标志着这个曾被唐纳德·特朗普总统和埃隆·马斯克攻击的美国外援机构将被迅速而彻底地拆解。

鲁比奥在其个人X平台账号（而非国务卿官方账号）的一篇帖子中表示：“经过6周的审查，我们正式取消美国国际开发署83%的项目。”他说：“现已取消的5200份合同花费了数百亿美元，却没有服务于（在某些情况下甚至损害了）美国的核心国家利益。在与国会协商后，我们打算让国务院更有效地管理我们保留的剩余18%（约1000个）项目。”

鲁比奥还在帖子中特意表扬曾在内阁会议指责他未能按要求裁员的马斯克及其支持的政府效率部：“感谢政府效率部和我们辛勤工作的员工，他们长时间的工作实现了这项早该进行的历史性改革。”政府效率部已在联邦机构安插官员，并采取有争议的措施来削减联邦开支。

马斯克对鲁比奥的帖子了给予积极回应：“艰难，但有必要。”他还特意表示：“与你合作愉快。美国国际开发署的重要职能本来就应该归国务院负责。”但马斯克此前曾多次抨击美国国际开发署，并称应该把它彻底解散。

在2月下旬提交给法院的一份文件中，特朗普政府表示，已终止了近5800项美国国际开发署的对外援助项目。文件称，鲁比奥“已根据相关文件条款或独立法律授权确定每个项目是否与美国的国家利益和外交政策相悖，并针对每个外援项目做出保留还是终止的决定。”

美国有线电视新闻网采访的外援专业人士称，这些终止的项目包括那些曾被认为是拯救生命的项目，不少项目此前已获得豁免而不受特朗普签署的将对外援助冻结90天的行政令的影响。一些从事人道主义工作的前美国官员将援助项目的终止形容为“一场大屠杀”。

美国国际开发署每年在全球范围内提供数十亿美元，资助发展中国家的缓解贫困、治疗疾病以及应对饥荒和自然灾害的人道人道主义工作，特别是通过支持非政府组织、独立媒体和社会倡议推进美国的所谓促进民主建设和发展的价值观。

2月初，鲁比奥曾宣布他已受命成为美国国际开发署代理署长，并告知国会他已指示他的一名副手皮特·马罗科“开始对美国国际开发署的活动进

行审查并可能进行重组，以实现效率最大化，并使其援助项目符合美国国家利益”。

他在当时给国会的信中写道：“美国国际开发署可能会将某些任务、局和办公室转移、重组并整合到国务院，该机构的其余部分可能会根据适用法律予以废除。”

但特朗普政府冻结对外援助、停止对非营利组织和承包商付款，以及拆解美国国际开发署和解雇其工作人员的行动被相关组织和雇员告上法庭。一名联邦法官的判决允许政府继续让该署人员休假和终止项目的行动，另一名联邦法官则裁定政府必须支付近20亿美元的人道主义工作中的未支付费用。最高法院上周维持了后一项裁决，但并未给出需要支付的时间期限。

The Trump administration is canceling 83% of programs at the US Agency for International Development and intends to fold the remaining programs under the State Department, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Monday.

The move to have the remaining 1,000 USAID programs administered by the State Department would cap the quick and drastic dismantlement of the US’ independent humanitarian organization, which had been demonized by President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

“After a 6 week review we are officially cancelling 83% of the programs at USAID,” Rubio said in a post on X from his personal account, not his official secretary of state one.

“The 5200 contracts that are now cancelled spent tens of billions of dollars in ways that did not serve, (and in some cases even harmed), the core national interests of the United States,” he claimed without providing details on the canceled contracts.

“In consultation with Congress, we intend for the remaining 18% of programs we are keeping (approximately 1000) to now be administered more effectively under the State Department,” he said.

“Thank you to DOGE and our hardworking staff who worked very long hours to achieve this overdue and historic reform,” Rubio said, referencing the Musk-backed office that has installed officials throughout the federal agencies and taken controversial steps to slash federal spending.

In a response to the post, Musk – with whom Rubio had reportedly feuded – said, “Tough, but necessary.”

“Good working with you. The important parts of USAID should always have been with Dept of State,” said Musk, who repeatedly bashed USAID and said it should be fed into a woodchipper.

In a court filing in late February, the administration said it had terminated nearly 5,800 USAID awards. According to a court filing, Rubio had “made a final decision with respect to each award, on an individualized basis, affirmatively electing to either retain the award or terminate it pursuant to the terms of the instrument or independent legal authority as inconsistent with the national interests and foreign policy of the United States.”

Sources who spoke to CNN at the time said those terminations included funding for programs that had been deemed lifesaving and granted waivers to the sweeping foreign aid freeze. Several humanitarian officials described the terminations of the awards as “a bloodbath.” Others said the rollout of the terminations from the State Department and USAID was confusing and unexpected, even to some officials within those agencies. There were reports that some terminated contracts had been restored.

CNN has reached out to the State Department for more information, including the difference in figures between Rubio’s post and the court filing.

USAID dispenses billions of dollars annually across the world in an effort to alleviate poverty, treat diseases and respond to famines and natural disasters. It also promotes democracy building and development by supporting non-government organizations, independent media and social initiatives. Most of that work has ground to a halt because of the moves of the Trump administration, which alleged misuse and fraud.

In early February, Rubio revealed he was acting administrator of USAID and told Congress he had directed a deputy, Pete Marocco, “to begin the process of engaging in a review and potential reorganization of USAID’s activities to maximize efficiency and align operations with the national interest.”

“USAID may move, reorganize, and integrate certain missions, bureaus, and offices into the Department of State, and the remainder of the Agency may be abolished consistent with applicable law,” Rubio wrote in a letter to Capitol Hill at the time.

The administration’s foreign aid freeze, which halted payments to nonprofits and contractors, as well as its moves to dismantle USAID have been challenged in the courts. A federal judge has allowed the administration to move forward with putting people on leave and terminations, but another federal judge ruled that the administration must pay out nearly $2 billion in unpaid fees for humanitarian work. The Supreme Court upheld the latter ruling last week but did not provide a timeline for pay out.
