Trump Considers Rejoining WHO After Withdrawal, Cites Funding Disparity
Jan 25, 2025, 10:16 PM
President Donald Trump has indicated he may consider rejoining the World Health Organization (WHO), just days after he signed an executive order to withdraw the United States from the organization. Speaking at a rally in Las Vegas, Trump criticized the funding disparity, noting that the U.S. contributes $500 million annually to the WHO, while China pays $39 million despite having a much larger population. Trump's remarks come as the U.S. is scheduled to officially leave the WHO on January 22, 2026. The U.S. is the largest financial contributor to the WHO, providing about 18% of its total funding.
