Voice of America, also known as VOA, is a state-owned entity headquartered in the US. It operates under the United States Agency for Global Media. Established in 1942, the organization employs approximately 1920 individuals. Functioning primarily in broadcast media production and distribution, the company provides news, information, and educational programs globally. These programs are delivered in over 40 languages via various multimedia platforms including radio, television, the internet, and mobile, additionally reaching audiences through affiliate stations worldwide.
Voice of America decided on August 5, 2026, to resume broadcasting in Ukrainian and bring some staff from the Ukrainian editorial department back to work, with journalists preparing for their first broadcasts the following week. Previously, on July 30, President Donald Trump's nominee to oversee VOA's parent agency stated that she would bring back many journalists placed on paid leave since the early weeks of Trump's second term, if confirmed. This followed reports earlier on July 30 detailing the impact of these cuts, with veteran journalists like Danila Galperovich transitioning from international newsrooms to new roles, such as working at Trader Joe's. Further reports on July 13 underscored the challenges faced by these journalists.
