US Withdrawal From World Health Organization Announced by Donald Trump

One of the executive actions that President Donald Trump implemented on his first day back in office was declaring the United States’ departure from the World Health Organization, or WHO.

This wasn’t a shocking decision given Trump’s past involvement with the group. Before Joe Biden reversed the ruling and restored money for the WHO, he tried to exclude.

The United States from the organization in 2020. Keeping American dollars domestic and refusing to pay for what he saw as a waste of money was one of Trump’s main campaign platforms,

Which always put the WHO at risk. Trump attributed the decision mostly to the organization’s “mishandling” of the COVID-19 outbreak.

The United States has been its biggest contributor. The nation has consistently donated around $163 million year, with occasional donations exceeding $800 million.
