It is tied nearly always to US interests. Military aid benefits US military interests. You don't see the US funding French or German arms to other nations. You don't see US funding humanitarian aid through the Brits or Canadians but with commercial interests.
Some of you guys seem to think the Treasury writes them a check. Not how it happens. There maybe scant outlier exceptions to this but that is typically how it is done.
