The administration walked back the condom claim.
As for the chickens:
100 million is a pretty wild number. In July of 2024, University of Nebraska reported that about 1.8 million chickens would be culled because of the bird flu epidemic running through domestic chickens and wild birds. This epidemic doesn't just threaten to raise the price of eggs... the virus could 'jump', combine with circulating seasonal flu virus and create a superbug that will infect and kill humans efficiently...much as COVID19 did.
It's a good idea to regard any political statement, from anyone, with a certain amount of skepticism.
Those numbers for foreign aid...I don't have any way (or time) to look into. However, please know that though I love my country, I believe we rarely give money unless there is something in it for us. We are not really that charitable :))
Yes yet the African countries expect to receive funds every year for whatever reason an from Europe as well. There has to be something beneficial in it for whoever is giving the money whether it is political, financial or even a back hand. In Africa the world is fighting Chinese influence and why I see payments happening.
That is the crux of it. Anytime someone gives money to anyone (even a parent to a child) there is the suggestion of a string attached. Foreign aid is a political tool. Just as tariffs are, visa requirements, student exchange, etc. It's all orchestrated. Of course, the givers don't always get a return on their money.
