Under President Joe Biden, the US government bought nearly 500 tons of emergency food. She was intended for starving children in Afghanistan and Pakistan – but she was never divided. Now there is an absurd solution for the food.
At the beginning of July, the Trump government announced that of foreign help from the USAID development agency. But that is not all: now emergency food must be destroyed that the US wanted to distribute hungry children. The American magazine “The Atlantic” reports.
The food is currently stored in the United Arab Emirates in Dubai and reaches their best before date this week. There is enough food to feed around 1.5 million children for a week, as the current and former government employees say. Usually such cookies are distributed in crisis situations when people have no cooking facilities.
Organization was not allowed to distribute cookies
USAID did not spread the cookies because the organization was not allowed. Since January, the American employee had repeatedly asked Trump’s government to give up the cookies, “the Atlantic Ocean” reported. The permission of the new head of the American abroad would have been necessary for this. But this never came.
For the cookies, the United States had paid the equivalent of around 680,000 euros by the end of the term of office of former President Joe Biden. According to the “Atlantic” report, taxpayers in the United States must now pay the equivalent of around 110,000 euros for the destruction of food.
The government under Trump has worked since he took office to reduce and save the government. This also included mass dismissals and efforts to abolish the entire ministries. USAID was admitted to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the course of the government’s renovation work.
