Jakarta, CNN Indonesia – Some parties are disappointed with the president’s decision The United States of AmericaDonald Trump, to stop financing the World Health Organization (WHO) related to a pandemic corona virus.
As reported AFPOn Thursday (4/16), the United Nations (UN) Secretary General, Antonio Guterres, condemned Trump’s move.
“Now is not the time to cut resources for the activities of WHO or other humanitarian agencies that fight viruses,” Guterres said.
Even Microsoft conglomerate and founder Bill Gates said Trump’s decision to stop donations to the WHO is very dangerous.
Trump reasoned that he was temporarily suspending funding for the WHO because he accused the agency of mistakenly taking policies and covering up the spread of the coronavirus.
Trump said the United States donated $ 400 million to the WHO in 2019. According to him, deaths from the coronavirus could actually be suppressed if the WHO could provide an accurate assessment when the outbreak broke out late last year in China. .
The Western Bloc also disagrees with the way Trump temporarily stops donations to the WHO. The head of the European Union’s Foreign Policy, Josep Borrell, said he regretted Trump’s decision.
“There is no reason to justify this action at this time, when we even need more efforts to control and deal with the coronavirus pandemic. Only by combining our strengths can we go through a crisis that knows no bounds,” Borrell said through his twitter account.
German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas said at the moment that it made no sense for Trump to act to blame anyone for the outbreak of the crown virus.
“Blaming other parties will not help. The virus knows no limits,” Maas tweeted through his Twitter account.
According to French government spokesman Sibeth Ndiaye, he also expressed extreme regret at Trump’s decision.
Disappointed comments about Trump’s attitude also came from the Russian government.

“This is a sign that the United States government is very selfish about the pandemic that is happening in the world. The attitude towards the organization, when the world needs it, is a step that invites criticism,” said the vice minister. Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov.
Iran, a staunch enemy of the United States, also condemned Trump’s decision.
“Stopping WHO funding in the midst of a pandemic will only cause embarrassment. The world will learn about what Iran has known and experienced so far. The US regime is not only fond of harassment and threat. They are also killing people.” shouted Iran’s foreign minister, Mohammad Javad. Zarif, through a Twitter account. (ayp / ayp)
