The Executive Order 14155 announces the United States' plan to withdraw from the World Health Organization (WHO), citing dissatisfaction with the organization's handling of global health crises and financial demands on the U.S. The order revokes a previous 2021 retraction of withdrawal from the WHO and outlines steps to stop U.S. financial support and personnel involvement with the organization. It calls for the establishment of new mechanisms to protect public health and directs U.S. officials to communicate the withdrawal to international parties while pausing negotiations on a WHO Pandemic Agreement.
Simple Explanation
The United States has decided to stop being a part of the World Health Organization (WHO) because they are not happy with how WHO is dealing with health problems around the world and the money they ask for. Instead, they plan to find new ways to keep people healthy without WHO's help.
