摘要

Foreign Military Financing is an important foreign policy tool. It provides military strength to allies and gives the United States additional leverage in dealing with foreign governments. Similarly, training soldiers of other nations provides significant benefits to the United States. Such training sharpens the military capacity of allies and improves relationships between U.S. and foreign troops. If coupled with effective human rights training, U.S. support is likely to prevent some human rights abuses. Unfortunately, it is difficult to see how U.S. aid and training has helped curtail human rights abuses committed by the militaries receiving the funds. Afghanistan, the Philippines, and Colombia are just three examples of nations that receive enormous sums in military aid but disburse these sums in ways that may aggravate, rather than prevent, human rights abuses. Sometimes, as with the Afghan Local Police in Afghanistan and the paramilitaries in Colombia, those abuses border on state policy. At other times, including the extrajudicial killings in the Philippines, the human rights abuses are compounded by a systemic failure to prosecute the perpetrators.
