A Vatican official, Cardinal Michael Czerny, has called on the Trump administration to uphold Christian values in its treatment of migrants and foreign aid programs. Cardinal Czerny, who oversees migration, development, and charity initiatives for the Vatican, expressed concerns about the impact of the planned cuts to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
Cardinal Czerny emphasized the importance of honoring commitments made by aid agencies and warned against abrupt changes that could disrupt ongoing programs. USAID, a key player in international humanitarian efforts, manages billions of dollars in funding and plays a crucial role in supporting organizations like Catholic Relief Services.
