Trumps letter to the DG of the WHO (thread)
1) the WHO’s response will now very likely form the object of an independent investigation. Here’s the draft resolution apps.who.int/gb/ebwha/pdf_f…
The resolution was drafted by EU member states and is reported to pass google.co.uk/amp/s/www.busi…
2) There is little doubt that some governments also were incredibly negligent in their response - and are now eager to deflect blame. That should not detract us from discussing necessary reforms.
3) Leaving or even destroying the WHO in the absence of anything better to replace it is insane. You will have thousands of bilateral relationships - and no reason to assume that countries would behave better.
4) You can have an international organisation that is more vigorous and questions its member states where it should. But it would, well, be more vigorous and question member states.
