It is unusual for the president to overturn a budget approved by Congress through executive authority, and some members of the ruling Republican Party have also criticized the withdrawal of the budget.
ホワイトハウスによりますと、トランプ大統領は28日、ジョンソン下院議長に宛てた書簡で、すでに議会が承認した予算、およそ49億ドル、日本円で7200億円余りを撤回すると通知しました。
According to the White House, on the 28th, President Trump sent a letter to Speaker of the House Johnson notifying him that he would withdraw approximately $4.9 billion—over 720 billion yen—that had already been approved by Congress.
撤回する支出の大部分を占めるのは、ルビオ国務長官が事業の停止を発表したUSAID＝アメリカ国際開発庁を通じた開発援助、32億ドルです。
The majority of the expenditures to be withdrawn consists of $3.2 billion in development aid provided through USAID—the United States Agency for International Development—which Secretary of State Rubio announced would be suspended.
また、ユネスコ＝国連教育科学文化機関やWTO＝世界貿易機関などの国際機関の分担金、5億2100万ドル、それに国連平和維持活動の分担金、3億9300万ドルなども含まれています。
Additionally, it also includes contributions to international organizations such as UNESCO United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization and the WTO World Trade Organization, totaling 521 million dollars, as well as contributions to United Nations peacekeeping operations, totaling 393 million dollars.
ホワイトハウスは「大統領の権限で議会がすでに承認した支出を撤回するのはこの50年で初めてだ」とした上で「大統領は『アメリカ第一』の優先事項に反する支出は取り消す」と主張しています。
The White House stated, This is the first time in 50 years that a president has rescinded spending already approved by Congress using presidential authority, and asserted, The president will cancel expenditures that go against the America First priorities.
しかし、アメリカ国外での支援活動の影響が懸念される上、議会での承認手続きを経ない予算の撤回措置に与党・共和党の一部からも批判が出ています。
However, there are concerns about the impact of support activities outside the United States, and some members of the ruling Republican Party are also criticizing the withdrawal of the budget without going through the approval process in Congress.
