UN suspends food aid in Ethiopia​

09.06.2023 at 20:57

More than 20 million people in Ethiopia urgently need food. In recent months, however, there have been growing indications that food supplies had been diverted and sold on.

The UN World Food Program (WFP) has temporarily suspended its food aid to the East African country because of misappropriated aid supplies in Ethiopia. The diversion of food donations is absolutely unacceptable and they welcome the Ethiopian government's commitment to hold those responsible accountable, WFP chief Cindy McCain announced Friday. The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) also suspended its aid.

According to the WFP, more than 20 million people in Ethiopia are in urgent need of food aid because they have been affected by drought or conflict, for example. Some WFP aid, such as for children and pregnant and lactating women, will continue for the time being. With around 120 million inhabitants, Ethiopia is the second most populous country in Africa.

Supplies probably diverted and sold
In recent months, there have been growing indications that food supplies had been diverted and sold on. In early May, WFP and USAID had therefore already suspended their aid to the Tigray region in northern Ethiopia, which had been devastated by a civil war, and launched investigations.

"WFP takes this issue very seriously and will take all necessary steps to ensure that critical food assistance reaches those who need it most," the World Food Program said. Among the measures planned, for example, is the use of technology to verify the identity of those in need in real time. "In addition, WFP is strengthening food tracking to beneficiaries' families, as well as monitoring and reporting partner non-compliance and misuse of food assistance."

Ethiopia is in urgent need of birth control it was 21 million in 1960 ,60 million in 1997 and it doubles its population every 25 years.
 
Wait, they've just now realised that this is happening? I was under the impression it was open knowledge a lot of aid never reached its intended targets.
 
Watch some human rights NGO to scream that stopping food aid no matter the circumstances or reason for it is a human rights violation and some kind of attempted genocide against africans and forces the UN to keep providing the food
 
Is Ethiopia one of the countries pushing back against the UN Tranny Menace? Or maybe they pushed back too hard against the UN's Clotshot Initiatives? Otherwise, I can't imagine why they'd do this. This happens in most UN aid recipient countries.
 
Ethiopia has an ongoing low intensity civil war ongoing in the north, the Tigray region in particular, although it was resumed a sort of slumber with parties eying each other. Not carelessly doling out aid would actually be a good idea, but Oxfam might be unhappy at the low quality Toyota Landcruisers and low quality brothels. Meh.
 
If a nation needs foreign food aid in order to survive, to keep their reckless negro breeding going, maybe some of the fault could maybe (I'm not a racialist) be placed on the Ethiopians?
 
Hardly surprising. At least half of all foreign aid to Africa is lost to graft and corruption, with 90% being more realistic. Nothing short of a century of Western raj will unfuck Africa.

Cutting off their food is birth control, thankfully. The people who die off will fertilize the land well, so hopefully the surviving Ethiopians will learn farming and irrigation and how not to be niggers

I wouldn't be surprised if this isn't the real reason they are cutting aid. There are probably a bunch of bean counters crunching numbers and figured if trends keep going they will be needsly subsiding a population that a country can't natural support to the detriment of others.

Yeah it was well known, but a bunch of the money was also probably finding its way back to the people in charge of distributing the money. I guess their palms weren't greased well enough, and so the whole scam fell apart now.
 
For how many decades we've been feeding African countries and nothing has improved?

Well, the Hollywood singers won't sing "We are The World" this time.
I miss when the only virtue signalling celebrities used to make was Africa. The best part was that they wanted to help "Africa", like that, as if it was one single country with one general problem... still, it's much better than what we have now.
