The German pharmaceutical company Bayer, for $ 62 billion, wants to buy Monsanto, or a controversial, biotech company that specializes in GMOs around the world.
The giant a few days ago received permission from the European Commission and the Ministry of Justice of the United States for this step. Now there are two more green lights from the governments of two countries, namely Canada and Mexico, but this should not be a problem.
Bayer's bosses are sure that the transaction will be finalized in the second half of this year. Then it will officially be the largest financial merger of multinational corporations in the entire history of the world.
The news of the merger of these giants immediately caused a great stir among others in the global network, because Bayer is one of the most trusted companies in the world, and meanwhile, Monsanto one of those who are extremely unlucky.
The representatives of the companies stated that the merger is aimed at acquiring by Bayer technologies developed by Monsanto, thanks to which it will be possible to change the world of the chemistry and agriculture industry forever. The combination of Bayer and Monsanto will also make the German company the world's largest seed supplier, an agricultural giant that has commercial relations with farmers from six continents.
Monsanto has recently received access to the most effective DNA editing and modification technology in the world today and is working on a medical marijuana strain.
After the merger, Bayer wants to focus on providing high-quality food to the world and innovative medical devices. Once she invented aspirin, patented heroin as a cough medicine and cooperated with the Nazi regime, using forced labor.
Fans of conspiracy theories, however, have a slightly different vision of merging companies that will end up creating, with the help of GMO food, a sick society, which later will have to live on drugs, of which corporations are to draw unimaginable money.
