Introduction   
 
Following the initiation of Trump’s second term, U.S. development cooperation has been experiencing profound changes. With a reduction in budget for Official Development Assistance (ODA), aid to developing countries, international organizations, civil societies, and other major partners has vastly decreased, and the dissolution of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), one of the implementation agencies for foreign aid, has begun. U.S. aid budget cut in the second Trump administration was the anticipated move since his first administration persistently attempted to scale down aid spending and carried out the suspension of aid to some international organizations, such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and the UN Population Fund (UNFPA). Yet the changes occurred at a faster pace and on a larger scale than expected. 
Since the United States, as the largest donor nation, has contributed one-third of the total assistance provided by members of the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC), a reduction in U.S. development cooperation is likely to have significant global repercussions beyond the U.S. Therefore, the article aims to examine changes in U.S. development cooperation and the resulting implications.
