Argentina to withdraw from World Health Organization after Trump exit, citing 'deep differences'

President Javier Milei has ordered Argentina's withdrawal from the World Health Organization due to profound differences with the U.N. Agency, a presidential spokesperson said Wednesday.
The decision reflects Argentina's concerns about the WHO's health management during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to spokesperson Manuel Adorni.
Adorni stated that WHO guidelines led to the largest shutdown in the history of mankind and criticized the agency's lack of independence.
Argentina will not allow an international organization to intervene in its sovereignty, particularly regarding health matters, as emphasized by Adorni.
