President Donald Trump who accused WHO of putting ‘political correctness above life-saving measures.’
The funding would be frozen pending a review into the WHO’s role in “severely mismanaging and covering up the spread of the coronavirus,” said Trump, who accused the Geneva-based body of putting “political correctness above life-saving measures.” “The current global epidemic situation is grim. It is at a critical moment. This US decision will weaken WHO’s capacities and undermine international cooperation against the epidemic.”“Deeply regret US decision to suspend funding to WHO” – EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell on Twitter.
“One of the best investments is to strengthen the UN, above all the under-financed WHO… in the development and distribution of tests and vaccines.”“It is a sign of the very selfish approach of the US authorities to what is happening in the world due to the pandemic” – Russian deputy foreign minister Sergei Ryabkov.
