The EU’s top diplomat says he “deeply regrets” Donald Trump’s decision to suspend funding for the World Health Organization (WHO).
The bloc’s High Representative for Foreign Affairs, Josep Borrell, said: “There is no reason justifying this move at a moment when their efforts are needed more than ever to help contain & mitigate the coronavirus pandemic. Only by joining forces we can overcome this crisis that knows no borders.”
Trump announced Tuesday he is halting funding to the WHO while a review is conducted. He said the review would cover the WHO’s “role in severely mismanaging and covering up the spread of coronavirus.”
