President Donald Trump has redoubled his criticism of the World Health Organization, threatening to permanently withdraw funding and cancel US membership even as it deals with a devastating global pandemic.
In a letter to WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on Monday, Trump bemoaned "repeated missteps by you and your organization" and said he would permanently halt financial contributions if the WHO does not "commit to major substantive improvements in the next 30 days." Trump temporarily suspended funding to the organization last month.
