the claim that the specific amount
is enough to solve the hunger crisis.
On Twitter, he said that if the World
Food Program could prove its math, he would, "sell Tesla stock right now and do it.".
He also demanded the agency be transparent
about how the money would be allocated.
I can assure you that we have the systems in place for transparency and open source accounting. Your team can review and work with us to be totally confident of such, David Beasley, via Twitter.
He also clarified that the agency had never claimed $6 billion would "solve world hunger.".
This is a one-time donation to save
42 million lives during this
unprecedented hunger crisis, David Beasley, via Twitter
