In a Wednesday tweet, Mousavi wrote, “As global health is at stake & we need global solidarity & science-led leadership more than ever, Trump's letter to @WHO Director-General is undermining the professionalism & independence of the Organization. It is a vain attempt at the wrong time.”
US President Trump is giving the World Health Organization 30 days to commit to substantial changes in how it operates — or he will make his hold on US funding permanent. The threat came in a letter that sharply criticizes the WHO response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its relationship with China.
"The World Health Organization has repeatedly made claims about the coronavirus that was either grossly inaccurate or misleading," Trump wrote in the four-page letter to WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.
