Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has accused Elon Musk, who is the head of Dogo (government’s proficiency department) for killing children in the world’s poorest countries by cutting foreign aid under the Trump administration. Gates said in an interview with Financial Times, “The picture of killing the world’s most poorest children is not very beautiful,” Gates said. Gates believes that Musk’s move has slowed the years in the years of fighting diseases like measles, HIV and polio in poor countries.

Elon Musk has denied the claims of Gates in a post on X, stating that “Gates is a very big false”.

The White House also responded to Gates’ interview. In a statement released on Thursday, a spokesman for the White House stood with Elon Musk’s participation in the administration. The spokesperson said, “Elon Musk is a patriot who is working to fulfill President Trump’s mission to eliminate waste, fraud and misuse.” “Backbenchers should celebrate the selfless efforts of America’s most innovative entrepreneurs, which are dedicated time to support American taxpayers,” he said.

Bill Gates also warned that global governments may reduce decades of progress in reducing deep funding cuts and its effect will be felt in the next four to six years. Gates told Reuters, “The number of deaths will start for the first time … millions of more deaths are going to happen due to resources.”

Musk has repeatedly proud of its role in eliminating USAID. According to a report by Reuters, about 80 percent of the agency’s programs have now been scraped. In 2023, the USAID allegedly spent around $ 44 billion worldwide on development and human initiative.

Gates told Times Magazine, “He can become a great philanthropist.” “Meanwhile, the world’s richest man has been involved in the death of the world’s worst children,” he said.

Gates Foundation, according to a report by Reuters, plans to increase its annual budget to $ 9 billion by 2026, eventually reaching $ 10 billion per year. Bill Gates has predicted that the total cost of his foundation can reach $ 200 billion by 2045.

Despite this growth, Bill Gates has warned the Trump government that private foundations such as their low government assistance cannot be fully compensated for lack of funding. Over the next 20 years, “Governments will return to take care of the children who survive”, Gates allegedly said.
