Trump administration to revive partial funding to WHO
16 May, 2020
US president Donald Trump’s administration is defined to revive partial funding to the World Health Organization, Fox News reported late on Friday, citing a draft letter.
The Trump administration will “consent to pay up from what China pays in assessed contributions” to the WHO, Fox News reported, quoting from the letter.
Trump suspended US contributions to the WHO on April 14, accusing it of promoting China’s “disinformation” about the coronavirus outbreak and saying his administration would launch an assessment of the business. WHO officials denied the claims and China has insisted it had been transparent and open.
AMERICA was the WHO’s biggest donor. If the united states matches China’s contribution, as the Fox report adds, its new funding level will be about one-tenth of its previous funding amount around $400 million each year.
