Trump announces US ‘terminating’ relationship with WHO
Fox News ^ | May 29 2020 | Adam Shaw

President Trump on Friday announced that the U.S. is "terminating" its relationship with the embattled World Health Organization (WHO) over its failure to enact reforms in the face of U.S. concerns over its handling of the coronavirus pandemic and its pro-China bias.

"Because they have failed to make the requested and greatly needed reforms, we will be today terminating our relationship with the World Health Organization and redirecting those funds to other worldwide and deserving urgent global public health needs," Trump said at a press conference.

It came as part of a press conference in which Trump announced a number of measures aimed primarily at China in response to its conduct on a number of fronts including trade, the coronavirus and its recent incursions into freedoms in Hong Kong.

Used to feel the same way.

Then I contemplated a world with Russia and China having the
veto, and us not being there to use ours when they go off
the rails.

The U. S. and Israel would be the focus of every effort if
we weren’t there to stop it.

Does that mean he’ll be firing Dr. Fauci as well?
Perhaps the “Good Doctor” could resign and go work for his beloved WHO, if he thinks so highly of them.

Amen! Then politely ask the U.N. to relocate. I hear Switzerland is nice.

Good point! Maybe we just keep our veto, quit paying the “dues” and kick them out of the US?

I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if billions of dollars suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

That would be like the Glee Club trying to rule the high school.

Good move!

Now cut off the U.N. , arrest Soros, Hillary, Obama, Brennan, Clapper Comey, Strozk, Paige, Antifa and BLM.

That would be a good start.

Any media or Social Media that accepts Chicom funding should have their executives arrested, charged as enemy collaborators.

Ever see a $400,000,000 conversation. Watch as WHO senior advisor begins the end for the US funding WHO. Video here)

Canadian Bruce Aylward senior advisor at the World Health Organization, who visited Wuhan in February, appeared to hang up or be cut off when pressed on Taipei’s record

Asked by the RTHK reporter, Yvonne Tong, if the WHO would reconsider Taiwan’s membership, Aylward didn’t respond for several seconds, before saying he couldn’t hear the question.

Tong offered to repeat it but he cut in: “no, that’s OK, let’ move to another one then.”

“I’m actually curious to talk about Taiwan as well,” Tong said.

Aylward then appeared to either hang up the call or get disconnected. RTHK called Aylward back, and Tong asked if he could comment “on how Taiwan has done so far in terms of containing the virus”.

Aylward responded: “Well, we’ve already talked about China. And when you look across all the different areas of China, they’ve actually all done quite a good job.”

“With that, I’d like to thank you very much for inviting us to participate,” he said, ending the conversation.

cha-ching
