## Resource

The Trump administration is redirecting $52 million in foreign military aid from Europe and the Middle East to Central and South America—targeting countries like Panama, Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia—to strengthen security against drug trafficking and counter China’s growing influence. This move prioritizes the Western Hemisphere, boosting U.S. defense exports while addressing what officials call a long-standing neglect of regional allies. While some funding remains for original recipients, the realignment signals a major strategic pivot in American foreign policy.
