May 30, 2020 The US is breaking off its relationship with the World Health Organization (WHO): Donald Trump announced it to the White House in relation to the management of the coronavirus pandemic.

Trump added that US funds will go to other organizations around the world.

"China has total control of the WHO, even though it pays only $ 40 million a year. That is very little compared to what the United States pays: something like $ 450 million a year," said Trump. "We asked them for a reform, but they refused. And since they have not done the reform, today we cut off our relations with the WHO and redirect our sources to other urgent, global and deserving public health needs," he continued the American president.
