WHO is Chinese puppet says Trump - we’re not treated right
President Donald Trump criticized
the United Nations Health Organization as a Chinese "puppet" on
Monday, suggesting that he is considering cutting or canceling US assistance.
They’re a Chinese puppet; they’re
China-centric to put it nicer," he said in the White House.
Trump spoke as the WHO held its
first annual assembly since the pandemic swept the world after originating in
China, causing massive economic disruption and killing 316,000 people — close
to a third of them in the United States.
Trump said the United States pays
around $450 million annually to the World Health Organization, the largest
contribution of any country. Plans are being crafted to slash this because
“we’re not treated right.”
He further stated that WHO gave them
a lot of bad advices.
Trump said China pays only about
$40 million a year, and one idea was for Washington to bring "our 450 down
to 40," but "some people thought it was too much."
