“Secretary of State Marco Rubio harshly criticized the U.S. Agency for International Development on Monday, saying the agency wastes money and doesn’t reflect U.S. national interests,” the Washington Post reports.
Said Rubio: “My frustration with USAID goes back to my time in Congress. It’s a completely unresponsive agency.
”He added: “American foreign policy isn’t apolitical. American foreign policy is … to further the interest of the United States. If someone wants to spend apolitical dollars, they should spend private dollars.”
