Trump's Transition Team Plans U.S. Withdrawal from WHO on January 20, Contributing 16% of Funding
Dec 22, 2024, 02:10 PM
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 follows Trump's previous attempt to exit the organization in 2020, when he accused the WHO of being under China's influence. The U.S. was the largest single donor to the WHO, contributing approximately 16% of its funding in 2022-23. Experts have warned that such a withdrawal could have detrimental effects on the WHO's ability to respond to global health crises. The transition team is prioritizing this decision as a key action for the new administration.
