According to reports, the US State Department is set to reduce its workforce by 1,300 employees as part of the Trump administration’s budget cuts. This move reflects the ‘America First’ agenda’s focus on streamlining government operations.
Key highlights:
• 1,300 State Department employees facing job cuts.
• Trump administration pushing for deep reductions.
