UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer cuts UN World Food Programme funding by one-third, sparking criticism over global hunger efforts.
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is under fire for cutting UK funding to the UN World Food Programme by one-third, from $610 million in 2024 to $435 million in 2025, despite public pledges to combat global hunger.
The reduction, part of a broader drop in foreign aid to 0.3% of GDP, has raised concerns among humanitarian groups and former officials, who say it undermines efforts to address rising food insecurity in crisis zones like Afghanistan and Somalia.
The government cites fiscal priorities and increased defence spending, but critics argue the move contradicts Starmer’s international commitments and may have deadly consequences.
