[Pick a country, guess the foreign aid and you will be under](https://www.foreignassistance.gov/cd) [Foreign aid interactive dashboard](https://www.foreignassistance.gov/) **Edit**: After selecting a country scroll to the bottom to see how the payments were categorized


Bryguy3k

That’s pretty nifty. (What foreign aid did Belgium need from us in 2007/08?)


B52doc

Looks like [32 million for “infrastructure”](https://www.foreignassistance.gov/cd/belgium/2007/obligations/0) Scroll to the bottom for source of payments


Bryguy3k

Ah nuclear non-proliferation. I guess they needed help with decommissioning or refueling a nuclear plant.


B52doc

I wonder why the EU didn’t cover it


[deleted]

We don’t call them europoors for no reason…


Bryguy3k

Apparently they did some of it (the scary bit). I looked it up and the spent fuel was transported to France.


B52doc

Dafuq was the 32 million for then and why did it come from the US


Bryguy3k

Probably a Cold War arraignment. Westinghouse was for sure involved in one of the plants.


B52doc

Ah that makes sense 👍🏼


king_meatster

We’ve given 1.7 million to Russia and 2.2 million to China. Why?


B52doc

Generally payments to large GDP counties are for joint environmental, agricultural or social programs Canada is a good example of this


[deleted]

We needed cheap steel. For reasons.

OpportunityLife3003

I guessed zero dollars for foreign aid to Belgium, but it was actually -26 dollars :sob: how do you even give negative money in aid


Cmonlightmyire

We're literally paying Germany for childcare? Wtaf

It's cute that americans think money spent as foreign aid is charity

“A flag salutin’ mutha fucker.” 😡


BorodinoWin

Just to be clear, US foreign aid is generally not a loan or expected to be paid back. It is a gift. Santa Claus is coming to town mf

Too bad the US doesn’t go full Tony Soprano on their asses when the money is not paid back like this: https://preview.redd.it/r7gnjwjyxv6d1.jpeg?width=754&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7318e897bdfe79e511cd15c1ad8dd935b82a27ec

My conspiracy theory - this man killed Tony Soprano. I swear you can see him in a booth before the movie goes to black.

If you’re doing alright and your friend, even your rich friend, hands you a $20 and says “for your troubles,” if you got self respect you’d refuse it or find a way to give it back.

[Germany 2022](https://www.foreignassistance.gov/cd/germany/2022/obligations/0) Received 7 million from US Agency for International Development for the Childcare incentive fund: “World Bank Group is launching a new work program on childcare. the work program aims to expand the size, and improve the quality, of wbg investments in childcare to improve womens economic empowerment and child development outcomes as well as broader benefits for families, businesses and ultimately economies.” It’s a worthwhile cause but could the 7 million be spent in the US for the same fund or similar project?

I guess when compared to the 70 billion in 2022 foreign aid obligations 7 million is a small amount but it’s the principal of sending the money to a country with the third largest economy (behind the US and China) With all the social and economic problems here at home, it’s hard for me to reconcile the money spent


[deleted]

Oh you mean like PPP loans?

Hey I’m just saying it’s not a FUCKING loan if you don’t have to pay it back.
