WHO approves inquiry into global coronavirus response

CNN  

London CNN — The World Health Organization has agreed to hold an inquiry into the global response to the coronavirus pandemic, adopting a resolution a summit that has been overshadowed by President Donald Trump’s threat to permanently cut US funding to the agency. The part of the resolution that had been considered contentious called for “a stepwise process of impartial, independent and comprehensive evaluation” at “the earliest appropriate moment,” with the purpose “to review experience gained and lessons learned from the WHO-coordinated international health response to Covid-19.” The resolution did not single out any individual country, but a number of nations – including the US – have accused Beijing of withholding information about the virus, which was first detected in the central Chinese city of Wuhan in late 2019. Beijing had reacted angrily to Australia’s earlier calls for an investigation, accusing Canberra of a “highly irresponsible” move that could “disrupt international cooperation in fighting the pandemic and goes against people’s shared aspiration.” Trump threat hangs over summit The WHO’s Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus affirmed his commitment to “transparency, accountability and continuous improvement” when he addressed the virtual summit on Tuesday. Trump accused the organization on Monday of “political gamesmanship” for praising China’s strict domestic travel restrictions while being “inexplicably against my closing of the United States border.” Responding to that threat, other world leaders repeatedly highlighted the significance of the WHO’s work in fighting the pandemic.
