Under President Trump's leadership, the U.S. has taken decisive actions affecting global health policy, including withdrawing from the World Health Organization (WHO). This decision, motivated by criticisms of the WHO's management during the COVID-19 pandemic, represents a potential loss of U.S. influence in international health agreements. Experts warn that this withdrawal could create a power vacuum in global health that may be filled by China, which may not align with U.S. interests. Furthermore, the Administration's broader strategy reflects a reshape of international aid, echoing ideas from conservative policy organizations.
"Withdrawing from the WHO leaves a gap in global health leadership that will be filled by China. This is clearly not in America's best interests."
"The Biden Administration has deformed the agency by treating it as a global platform to pursue overseas a divisive political and cultural agenda that promotes abortion, climate extremism, gender radicalism, and interventions against perceived systemic racism."
