Not sure if it is foreign aid. I don't know if it applies here but there is something called an "offset". A company wants to sell it's products in a foreign country. The foreign country requires that the company either 1/ offer jobs, manufacturing or some other tangible asset for the contract or 2/ requires the company to accept payment in the form of some indigenous product which the company will then have to find a market for.
I don't know if I've explained it all that well.

I'm not a foreign trade expert and there may be other programs. Or it just may be that cotton from Pakistan is selling much cheaper than US cotton. We've all heard stories about MidWest farmers selling food products (wheat, corn, etc) in foreign markets instead of at home because the overseas markets were better.
