– The World Health Organization regrets the announcement by the United States of its intention to withdraw from the organization, a WHO statement said. This is in response to an executive order on withdrawal signed earlier by US President Donald Trump.
Donald Trump signed an executive order withdrawing the United States from the World Health Organization. – The WHO fooled us and everyone fooled the US. This will no longer happen, the new US president said shortly before signing the document.
In his opinion, the organization’s failure to address the COVID-19 pandemic and other crises has forced the United States to make “unfair and burdensome payments.”
The WHO released a statement Tuesday morning expressing “regret” over President Trump’s restrictions.
“WHO is committed to improving health outcomes by addressing the root causes of disease, building stronger health systems, and detecting, preventing and responding to health emergencies, including disease outbreaks, often in dangerous settings. We play a vital role in protecting the health and safety of people around the world, including Americans. Places others cannot go.”
More details coming soon.
