VOA Persian TV has been shut down following an executive order by U.S. President Donald Trump, on March 15, 2025. The order terminated federal grants for multiple media organizations, including Voice of America (VOA), Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, and Radio Free Asia. As a result, about 1,300 VOA staff members were placed on administrative leave.
