WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The State Department office that handles refugee issues and works to cut illegal migration will lead the U.S. response to overseas disasters, according to excerpts from an internal department cable, a role for which experts say it lacks the knowhow and personnel.
The Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration, known as PRM, is assuming that function from the U.S. Agency for International Development, the main U.S. foreign aid agency that the Trump administration has been dismantling, say the excerpts reviewed by Reuters.
