Mathieu Zahui, directeur financier de la African Development Foundation, une agence affiliée à l'USAID, a accepté de plaider coupable d'avoir accepté des pots-de-vin et menti aux enquêteurs. Il a dirigé 800 000 dollars vers une entreprise kenyane détenue par un ami, recevant des rétrocommissions tandis que la société a profité sans fournir de services. L'affaire met en lumière les préoccupations concernant la corruption dans les programmes d'aide extérieure américaine.

The decision stems from shortcomings in Serbia's reform efforts on the rule of law, corruption, and fundamental freedoms.
