The Donald Trump administration is considering abolishing the independent status of the USAID agency, which previously provided Ukraine with multi-billion-dollar grants. 

According to Politico, the agency is planned to be integrated into the structure of the State Department, which could lead to its de facto closure.

The publication notes that under Trump, no separate USAID administrator was appointed, with leadership effectively carried out by a State Department official. According to two sources familiar with the situation, this step is being discussed as part of a reform of US foreign policy institutions.
