I take the Pope’s remarks as a criticism of the United Nations.

About 90% of the money allocated by UN for Humanitarian and Economic Development aid from funds contributed by First World counties for redistribution to Third World counties is stolen, skimmed or purchased at inflated prices by UN employees,well connected grifters and the kleptocrats in the Third World.

UN aid contracting is basically a license to steal by the unscrupulous well connected in the feeding chain

Only about 10% at best actually ends up going to help the the intended recipients.

Pope is telling the UN to stop ripping off the charitable contributions sent to help the poor and needy in less advantaged countries
