US aid in the Trump era comes with strings attached. Aid for aid&#8217;s sake \u2013 whether given for humanitarian or strategic reasons \u2013 is a thing of the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">That represents a fundamental reordering of American foreign policy for more than 75 years, from the days of the Marshall Plan to post-Cold War idealism and George W Bush&#8217;s &#8220;Freedom Agenda&#8221; push to promote global democracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Ukraine is just the start. Expect Trump and his foreign policy team to apply their &#8220;America First&#8221; principles around the world over the course of the next four years.
