'Beacon of freedom' dims as US initiatives that promote democracy abroad wither under Trump


//politics-government.news-articles.net/content/ .. promote-democracy-abroad-wither-under-trump.html
Published in Politics and Government on Sunday, May 11th 2025 at 13:20 GMT by WDIO   Print publication without navigation

  • The United States is pulling back from its role in spreading democratic ideals abroad under President Donald Trump. Experts are raising concerns about the effect on movements that aim to counter authoritarians and build the foundations for representative government. The Trump administration has tried to shutter the U.S. Agency for Global Media, ended a U.S. Agency for International Development democracy initiative and restructured the State Department to eliminate a key global democracy office. It's a departure from America's long role in spreading democracy across the world. Experts say Washington's gutting of such initiatives could accelerate what many see as a trend of democratic backsliding around the globe.

The article from wdio.com discusses the diminishing U.S. efforts in promoting democracy abroad under the Trump administration. It highlights a significant reduction in funding and support for democracy and human rights programs, with a reported 40% cut in the budget for such initiatives. The article notes the closure of the Office of the Coordinator for Cyber Issues and the merging of the Global Engagement Center into the State Department's policy planning office, indicating a shift in priorities. Interviews with former officials and experts suggest that these changes reflect a broader retreat from America's traditional role as a global advocate for democracy, potentially undermining long-term U.S. interests and global stability. The piece also mentions specific cases, such as the situation in Venezuela and Nicaragua, where the lack of U.S. engagement has been felt.
