Buenos Aires (AP) -President of Argentina has ordered the withdrawal of a country from a World Health Organization for a “serious difference” from the United Nations Agency, stated on Wednesday.
The decision of President Javier Miley reflects the decision of his allies, US President Donald Trump. He began the process of separating the United States by the presidential order on the first day of the first day on January 21.
Another member’s loss further broke the global health cooperation, but Argentina had a budget of $ 6.9 billion in 2024-2025, only about $ 8 million.
The Argentina’s decision was based on “Serious differences in health management in (COVID-19) Pandemic”, and Spokesman Manuel Adorni said at a press conference at Buenos Aires. He stated that the WHO guidelines at the time have led to the largest closure of “in the history of mankind”.
Argentina does not allow international organizations to intervene in their sovereignty.
Those who do not have the authority to force the country to take certain health measures often ignore the guidelines and recommendations of organizations, including a health crisis, such as COVID-19.
Who said who is considering the presentation of Argentina.
Adorni did not say when the Milei decision would be implemented. He also argued that anyone was independent without naming for the political impact of some countries.
Who is the only organization that requires an acute health crisis, especially the occurrence of new diseases and global reactions to sustainable threats such as Ebola, AIDS, and MPOs?
Milay, who was a sharp critic of the blockage imposed by former President Albert Fernandez in the Pandemic, claimed that it had hurt the economy and used it as a “crackdown” mechanism.
“Long live freedom,” Milay said on Wednesday on a post on criticizing UN organizations.
Adorni said that Argentina did not receive funds for health management, and the president’s decision did not affect the quality of medical services.
“On the contrary, the flexibility to implement the policy adopted in the context of interest that Argentina needs increases,” he added.
Last year, the Milei government refused to sign an agreement to manage pandemic in the WHO framework.
The announcement of the WHO will match Milei’s trip to the United States in the second half of this month, consistent with the conservative political action meeting summit of the right -wing leader in Washington. Spokesman has not confirmed that Milei attends or he may meet Trump.
