The Trump administration on Monday pledged $2 billion in humanitarian aid to the United Nations – enough for the U.S. to maintain its status as the world's largest humanitarian donor but only a fraction of what it has given in the past.

The announcement of the pledge comes as President Donald Trump's administration continues to slash U.S. foreign assistance and warns United Nations agencies to "adapt, shrink or die" in a time of new financial realities, according to the Associated Press.
