President Donald Trump hinted at the possibility of the U.S. rejoining the World Health Organization, just days after announcing the country’s withdrawal due to concerns over the WHO's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In a surprising statement on Saturday, President Donald Trump hinted that he might reconsider the United States’ withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO). This comes just days after he announced the U.S. would be exiting the global health agency, citing frustrations with its handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and other international health challenges.
"Maybe we would consider doing it again, I don't know. Maybe we would. They would have to clean it up," Trump remarked at a rally in Las Vegas.
The U.S. is scheduled to officially leave the WHO on January 22, 2026. Trump made the announcement earlier this week, shortly after taking office for a second term.
The United States is the WHO’s largest financial contributor, providing roughly 18% of its total funding. The organization’s budget for the 2024-2025 period is set at $6.8 billion, highlighting the significant financial role the U.S. plays within the global health body.
