The United States could restore some funding to the World Health Organization under a plan that would cap contributions at whatever amount China gives, President Donald Trump said Saturday.
Funding is still frozen for now, the president clarified.
“This is just one of numerous concepts being considered under which we would pay 10 percent of what we have been paying over many years, matching much lower China payments. Have not made final decision,” Trump said.
U.S. contributions to the WHO last year exceeded $400 million, according to the State Department. According to the WHO, the United States provides nearly 15 percent of its funding. China gave about $40 million last year.

Give ‘em a quarter and tell ‘em call someone who gives a damn...
I think that’s a very astute observation.
He threw out the ruke book long ago, now he’s playing China by his rules.
We cut off funding. We for all practical purposes withdrew from the World Health Organization. Why would we want to get back in?
We should give them 10% of a dollar.
A nice, shiny dime.
The Hong Kong S.A.R. is part of China. I think you mean Taiwan.
Sure but let them find a payphone these days....

“Stop piling on.”
All this time on FR and I thought I was always the first one to comment:)
What do you mean by telling me to watch my back? All I did was point out your error. No reason for you to make threats!
Even if US gives WHO 100 times what we paid before. The money will NOT buy influence at the WHO organization. Zip, zilch, nada. So what good does it (pay into WHO) do again?
I am all for COMPLETELY Scratch the U.N. all of its sub-divisions (whatever they are called). Too many NGOs competing for money any way, and most of the $$$$ goes to fat bureaucrats and their experts, none of them answering to anybody.
My offer is this: nothing.
Nothing for commie-loving. globalist WHO.
Series?
Try reading the previous posts.
Go away.
Why? STOP giving ANY money to them, and move on thot the next thing. Come on, dude!
DO IT! Why should we finance a UN agency that’s just going to act like a mouthpiece for China?
POTUS Trump’s Achilles heal is absolutely horrendous advice.
