Counterterrorism Partnerships Fund Department of Defense Budget

The Counterterrorism Partnership Fund is a new initiative first announced by President Barack Obama in 2014 at the Naval Academy. His initial request was for $5 billion split between the Department of Defense and the State Department. Congress has failed to provide the full request each year, but has continued to provide significant funds toward the new program. This report is produced by the Department of Defense and provides information on the Defense Departments request for the program.
