"We have detailed the reforms that it must make and engaged with them directly but they have refused to act. 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. The world needs answers from China on the virus. We must have transparency," Trump said.

Good. America pays the bulk of every international organization. This is one of the reasons Trump won: he seems to be the only person who cared we're getting the short end of the stick in everything we're involved in.

screaming taiwan doesn't help, especially since all the major powers (even trump) bend over backwards on it. it just makes your argument look stupid.

as for africa, point to ANY nation that's doing ANYTHING about that? you realize the WHO isn't a paramilitary group right? trump sure as fuck doesn't care, why even bring it up?

and none of that changes the fact that trump has spent the last 3 years of his term systematically weakening US standing around the world. his bullshit with the UN. his threats to pull funding from NATO. his shitting on our european allies. buddying up to russia. his failed trade war with china. trump has weakened us on the international stage, there is no debating that; and all that he's accomplishing here is ripping the leverage we hold over the WHO away.

Germany is richer than other members of the EU, and yet when several member countries asked for financial assistance, most recently Italy when the coronavirus started ******* them up, Germany opposed to help.

Why are you comparing the US contributing to international organizations it is a member of to one country giving money (or not) to another?

Both have the money to do so, being rich enough that, some would say, it would be their obligation to help.
Germany more-so because it's called the ***** European Union, and thus the failure (read: economic collapse) of member states is a detriment to the EU collective as a whole.

But if you're in the camp of "**** them poor entities, they better bootstraps", then I guess you wouldn't be able to see why.

I hate Trump but this is a good point. The whole reason we spend more money on international organizations is to gain influence. If we don't have the influence to force the WHO to act on facts and not China, there isn't really a point to helping them.
