U.S. President Donald Trump has confirmed that he is terminating the U.S. partnership with the World Health Organisation owing to reports of how they handled the coronavirus pandemic. On Friday, Trump said in a press conference that the United States will withdraw its funding from the WHO and instead will be “directing those funds to other worldwide and deserving urgent global public health needs.”

Trump said the reason he was cutting ties with the WHO was because they supposedly worked with China to “mislead the world when the virus was first discovered.” Also claiming, that “China has total control over the World Health Organization.”

Trump further alleged that China covered up the coronavirus outbreak and ignored their reporting obligations to the World Health Organization.”
