Increase but only if the US gets a say in what the funds are used for. For example, if Nigeria was a country being funded the US should get to say that their funds should not be supporting SARS.

Increase, but only aid those who are in a relationship with the U.S. or are included in NATO or the United Nations.

Stay the same but only for those that are in critical danger and don't have large military as the U.S does
