  • Musk’s DOGE Announces Major International Spending Cuts Including $21 Million To India | N18G

    The US Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk and created by President Donald Trump, has announced significant cuts to various international expenditures. These cuts are aimed at reducing wasteful spending and improving governance. Among the canceled allocations are $21 million for voter turnout in India, $22 million for Moldova’s inclusive political process, and $29 million for political strengthening in Bangladesh. Other cuts include funding for projects in Nepal, Cambodia, and Mozambique, as well as $32 million for the Prague Civil Society Centre and $47 million for improving learning outcomes in Asia. The department’s post on X revealed that these funds were initially intended for various international development initiatives but were deemed unnecessary in the current context. The announcement follows a visit by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the US, where discussions on space, technology, and governance took place with both President Trump and Musk.

    Dogecoin, the Shiba Inu-themed cryptocurrency, has doubled in value since Donald Trump's presidential victory, rising from under 16 cents to nearly 38 cents. This surge aligns with a broader cryptocurrency boom, as Bitcoin also reached an all-time high above $93,000. Experts attribute the rise to Trump's favourable stance on digital currencies and his ambition to make the U.S. a "crypto capital" with a bitcoin 'strategic reserve.' Additionally, Elon Musk, a prominent Dogecoin advocate and Trump ally, was named head of a new “department of government efficiency” (DOGE), further fuelling support for Dogecoin as a decentralised payment alternative.
