I question that they favor US agendas. It sounds like wasting money to me.
I imagine there is some waste. And it's fair for you to question that. Do you really believe the United States would give unconditional aid to any foreign power? Why/not?
Do you believe China would give unconditional aid to foreign powers? Why/not?
Frankly, I think it would behoove every citizen of every nation to be a bit skeptical of any foreign policies taken by any party in power and hold said parties to account.
To our allies, yes, NATO is a good example of it. And some unsupervised bureaucrats with an ideological bent? Absolutely. And USAID hasn't seen a proper audit in a long time, they weren't exactly being supervised properly.
And Id expect the same out of China, but they also have an actual predatory loan program. USAID is giving money away. It's a bit of a difference.
