President Javier Milei of Argentina has announced the country's withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO), blaming the agency for economic difficulties experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic. Mieli's criticisms echo those of former U.S. President Donald Trump, highlighting a growing trend amongst far-right governments to discredit international health agencies. Despite some stabilization in inflation rates, Argentina's poverty has surged beyond 50%, raising concerns over the impact of public service cuts. The WHO plays a crucial role in health coordination, but lacks the authority to enforce compliance among member states.
We have decided to leave such a nefarious organization that was the executing arm of what was the greatest experiment in social control in history.
While month-to-month inflation has stabilized, Argentina's poverty rate has climbed to upwards of 50 percent.
The World Health Organization offers research and recommendations for how countries might collaborate to address public health crises.
Far-right administrations currently govern both Argentina and the United States, with both leaders criticizing the WHO for its handling of the pandemic.
