The United States is facing a growing backlash over its threat you probably hold the funding to the w. H. O. And thats after President Donald Trump said the organizations missteps have come i found extreme cost and i think theyve done a. Very sad job in the last period of time and again the United States pays them 450000000. 00 a year china pays them 38000000000. 00 a year and theyre a puppet of china theyre china centric to put it nicer but theyre a puppet of china. Well russia has become the latest global power to condemn trump threats Deputy Foreign minister has been quoted as saying it is against the breaking the w. H. O. For another members political purposes. Or accuse the United States of attempting to avoid responsibility for the handling of his own outbreak of the transfer marks were meant to criticize chinas response efforts made the u. S. Tries to use china as an issue to shirk responsibility and bargain over its International Obligations to the w. H. O. This is a miscalculation and the u. S. Has picked the wrong target and they want. The u. S. Leaders open later is full of hints perhaps and maybes and tries to use specious methods to mislead the public and achieve the goals of smearing chinas anti virus if its an shoot responsibility for the United States on insufficient response this is futile. All of this comes as Member States voted for an independent investigation into the response to the pandemic and thats something that the head of the organization has welcomed to make criticisms from donald trump well get reaction from our White House Correspondent can be help it in just a moment 1st lets go to asad begun london who has more from the. Shows General Assembly and said so we have this comprehensive review this investigation coming up now just as the u. S. Threatens to withdraw significant funding. Yes it was passed without any objection from any of the Member States now thats quite remarkable considering some of the allegations that have been thrown around over the last 2 days and that this resolution was on the table for a while but initially it was put forward by a stranger which angered china because china because of what to stray you wanted was an independent International Investigation into the origins of the virus no china thought that they were being targeted so they reacted angrily but this time this specific resolution was put forward by the European Union had over 100 coast reporters seem to pass with out any problems china and china seems to be happy with it china says that they want an investigation but its about the timing of the investigation for china that they say they would want to take place when the virus was under control this this resolution calls for an independent impartial and comprehensive investigation into the response of the pandemic also including how it. Dealt with that but whats also important is some of the text within that resolution is a call for an investigation in valuation into the origins this you not take origins of the virus and how it transferred from animals into humans now china was unhappy with that to begin with but they seem to have been seem to be ok with it now theyve supported it its passed without any objections but the question is is it enough to satisfy the United States and all the while the United States has given the dog a 30 day ultimatum what happens next. Well you just dont know because President Donald Trump hasnt said in those letters what he wants the World Health Organization to do because hes made very wherein the criticisms and those these have taken place over the last few months in that letter he doesnt say what they want what he wants them to do the double heiko dont know what donald trump wants them to do but the w. H. O. Have defended themselves against all against allegations that they did not warn of the risk of human to human transmission the w. H. O. Did that in january allegations that they didnt evaluate chinas information chinas transparency the say that they actually warned the world said that it was a risk to the world one day before the u. S. Partly suspended flights from china so the debate joe has defended itself the director general dr ted ross has said that we need this organization we dont need another organization hes asked for support and unity but also for 4 for more money and thats in the face of donald trump threatening to cut funding or as a thanks very much indeed does it in london lets go to our White House Correspondent can be in washington kimberly tell us more about the white house situation there so what more are they saying about these escalating tensions. Well the u. S. President is speaking right now ive been trying to catch some of what he had to say but its a little bit far from a sense difficult to hear but he is speaking and we will have those latest lines as they become available what i can tell you right now is the u. S. President speaking about delivering assistance to u. S. Farmers who have been hit hard by cope with 19 and whats really notable about all of this is the fact that the u. S. President is acknowledging that farmers have been hit hard by covert 19 but theyve also been hit hard by china tariffs now this is something that the u. S. President was willing to accept in order to try and get structural change in the trade relationship between the United States and china and it appears hes using those same type of strong arm tactics again with respect to the World Health Organization in other words saying the United States is the bodys biggest donor we will pull that funding pending this review because we feel that there was a bit of a bias it within the body and that it was leaving towards favor of china in other words the u. S. Is assertion is that china did not do enough to show transparency in the World Health Organization the u. S. President has also accused of not declaring a Global Pandemic soon enough this is had a devastating impact on ordinary americans for president trying to run for reelection this is a big problem 7 so hes not only looking for someone to blame but hes also keeping true with his america 1st principles essentially and that is that he feels that the american taxpayer is giving an awful lot of money to a body that he says didnt do enough to warn people about not only the pandemic but as a result of the economic carnage that has resulted in this country so the u. S. President is talking about the covert 1000 response right now once again sort of reminding people about how he used some of these tactics in the past dealing with the trade relationship now were seeing this evidence in the relationship with the World Health Organization we should again reiterate that the United States threatening to pull funding pending a 30 day review that has now been initiated right for you very much david can we talk about the workhouse.
