Politico writes that the Chinese government has proposed to Nepal its own initiatives for enhancing local infrastructure and economy, replacing the similar programs that were previously run by USAID.
It has also been reported that Chinese officials are actively attempting to substitute for the USAID programs that were terminated in Colombia, which received approximately $385 million annually from this agency for different development initiatives.
The Hill also believes that the shutdown of USAID might allow China to enhance its global influence. The report acknowledges that in certain instances, USAID funds might have been utilized inefficiently or ineffectively, yet overall, the agency's efforts helped bolster the U.S. standing in developing nations.
