Trump’s Minister of Health: WHO is an institution on death, I also invite others to stand out of it
Kennedy said this in a video message shown to the health officials who met at the Annual General Assembly of the Geneva Organization on Tuesday. Although the United States is the main donor of the UN agency, their representatives announced the withdrawal on the first day when Donald Trump entered the presidential function, leaving an organization with a huge budget deficit that her members at this week’s assembly seek to resolve reforms.
« I invite the Minister of Health from all over the world and to take our withdrawal from the organization as an invitation to wake up, » he said in a video recorded for Fox News, which was then broadcast at the Geneva Assembly.
« We have already been in contact with like -minded countries, and even others are encouraged to consider the possibility of joining us, » he said.
His speech did not cause any reaction to the Assembly members. Diplomats and ministers mainly followed speech in silence.
Trump has accused Who of work badly during Pandemia Covida and too much close to China, the accusation of which he denies.
Commenting on Who, Kennedy went even further, calling her an institution « stuck in bureaucratic bloating, rooted paradigms, conflicts of interest and international power policy. »
« We do not have to suffer the limitations of the dying WHO. Create new institutions or reconsider existing, those that are effective, transparent and responsible, » he said.
Kennedy’s speech was broadcast a few hours after the WHO members adopted an agreement on Tuesday, which should allow them to prepare more effectively for the upcoming pandemic.
Pacts ensure that medicines, therapy and vaccines are globally available when the next pandemic occurs. It is also required from the manufacturer who participate in the agreement to donate 20 percent of their vaccines, drugs and tests during pandemic to ensure that the poorer countries have access to the poorer countries.
