    Trump's Transition Team Plans U.S. Withdrawal from WHO on January 20, Citing Global Health Financing Concerns

    Dec 22, 2024, 09:27 AM

    Donald Trump's transition team is reportedly planning to withdraw the United States from the World Health Organization (WHO) on January 20, the day of his inauguration. This move, as outlined in reports from the Financial Times, aims to end U.S. membership and funding to the WHO, which Trump has previously criticized for being influenced by China. Experts have expressed concerns that such a withdrawal could have detrimental effects on global health financing and leadership, particularly in responding to public health crises. Trump's administration had previously initiated the process to leave the WHO in 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic, citing the organization's alleged mismanagement and ties to China.
