USAID - Where the aid money for Haiti went

Following the devastating earthquake in Haiti in 2010, the US allocated a substantial sum of $2 billion through the USAID assistance programme. 

However, according to an investigation published in the New York Post, only 2% of this amount – approximately $50 million – reached local organisations that were supposed to support the victims.

Most of the funds did not reach the island
According to the data, the majority of the funds went to large companies located in Washington and its suburbs, which sparked strong criticism from international organisations and local activists. Of the $2 billion, most of the money ended up in the pockets of companies situated far from the site of the disaster.

And yet, in the US, they talk about corruption in Ukraine.
