President Trump on Tuesday announced he would halt U.S. funding to the World Health Organization pending a review of its handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
“Today I’m instructing my administration to halt funding of the WHO while a review is conducted to assess the WHO’s role in severely mismanaging and covering up the spread of the coronavirus,” Trump said at a White House press briefing. “The WHO failed in this basic duty and must be held accountable.”
It was not immediately clear if the order will cover all or part of U.S. government funding of the organization.
Trump further assailed the agency’s criticism of travel restrictions on the president instituted in January on travelers who had passed through China.
“The WHO’s attack on travel restrictions put political correctness above life-saving measures,” Trump said.
