Double blow for Bangladesh as Switzerland cuts foreign aid after Trump halts funding for Dhaka

Days after the United States donor agency, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), decided to halt its funding to Bangladesh, the Swiss government is also ending its development aid programmes in the South Asian country. This implies that the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) will halt its bilateral development programmes in Bangladesh by the end of 2028. The decision will also impact two other countries, Albania and Zambia.
