US Senior Advisor Massad Boulos claims President Trump values Africa despite cutting aid that caused health crises across the continent. Trump froze assistance on his first day back at the White House as part of his America First policy. Eight nations might soon run out of HIV drugs because of these cuts. The World Health Organization warned that six African countries face medicine shortages. Trump also added tariffs that threaten a trade deal meant to help African economies grow.

Boulos told BBC Africa remains very important to Trump. He denied reports about closing American diplomatic missions there. Aid programs needed review for better efficiency, he argued. Eight people died walking hours to find cholera treatment in South Sudan after nearby clinics closed from funding cuts. Save the Children reported five children were among those who died seeking help.

The advisor, whose son married Trump's daughter Tiffany, visited several African countries recently. He said American companies want to mine minerals in Congo. These resources could help electric vehicle production. Boulos called on Rwanda to withdraw troops from Congo before any deals happen. Trump aims to end wars across the world, the envoy insisted.
