Cuba: Washington’s decision to suspend funds for the WHO is criminal and selfish

Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez stressed that the US decision to suspend funding for the World Health Organization is an attack on the international community, describing the decision as criminal and selfish in the face of the Corona pandemic.

Rodriguez added in a tweet on Twitter that the decision to suspend the funds for the World Health Organization is an action that the American administration seeks to divert attention from its ineffective dealing with the crisis and its inability to provide health care to its residents.

Rodriguez stressed that his country will continue with the World Health Organization to defend solidarity and international cooperation, pointing out that solidarity and cooperation are vital and essential to confront this epidemic.

The World Health Organization has expressed regret over US President Donald Trump‘s decision to suspend Washington’s financial contribution to the organization.

Trump had announced that he had ordered his administration to suspend the payment of the United States‘ financial contribution to the World Health Organization, citing what he called the UN mismanagement of the outbreak.
