Trump and the USA leave the WHO and the Paris Accord

The article discusses former U.S. President Donald Trump's decisions to withdraw the United States from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Paris Climate Accord. Trump announced the U.S. withdrawal from the WHO in July 2020, citing the organization's alleged mismanagement of the global response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its perceived bias towards China. This move was part of a broader critique of international organizations and agreements. Similarly, in June 2017, Trump declared the U.S. would exit the Paris Climate Accord, arguing that the agreement put the U.S. at an economic disadvantage and was unfair to American workers and taxpayers. The withdrawal from the Paris Agreement was completed on November 4, 2020, making the U.S. the only country outside the accord at that time. These decisions were met with significant international criticism and were seen as steps back from global cooperation on health and climate issues. However, President Joe Biden, upon taking office, reversed these decisions, rejoining both the WHO and the Paris Agreement.
