In reverse of Trump-era policy, Biden administration restores funding to UNRWA

The Biden administration has announced its plans to reinstate millions of dollars in aid to UNRWA, nearly three years after the Trump administration halted US funding for the agency. While Biden’s moves so far have been praised by the Palestinian leadership, the administration has made clear that it will not reverse some of the most controversial of Trump’s policies, including moving the US embassy to Jerusalem, or oppose normalization agreements between Israel and other Arab nations in the region.
