WASHINGTON -- The United States has announced an additional $1.8 billion in humanitarian assistance for UN-led relief operations worldwide, including continued support for Ukraine.
Speaking at a May 14 briefing organized by the State Department’s Foreign Press Center, senior US and UN officials said the new package builds on a December 2025 “Humanitarian Reset” agreement between Washington and the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), bringing total US support under the framework to $3.8 billion across 21 crisis-hit countries.
US Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz said the latest contribution would both “save more lives around the world” and advance reforms aimed at improving “efficiency, accountability, and lasting impact.”
