The Trump administration is considering shutting down at least 30 embassies and consulates worldwide.
An internal State Department document notes a sweeping plan to shut 10 embassies and 17 consulates, with Africa and Europe bearing the brunt.
The closures are part of a broader campaign spearheaded by the Elon Musk-backed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), to slash the State Department's budget nearly in half-from Sh7.07 trillion to Sh3.60 trillion next year.
Among the countries hardest hit is South Sudan, which has recently emerged from civil war and remains dependent on international partnerships.
