Argentina’s plan to withdraw from the WHO was confirmed by presidential spokesperson Manuel Adorni, who cited “deep differences” with the organization’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. Adorni particularly criticized the WHO’s role in enforcing prolonged lockdowns, which he argued had severely impacted the country. He added that Argentina does not rely on WHO funding and that leaving the organization would not compromise his country’s healthcare services.
The decision aligns with U.S. President Donald Trump’s plan to pull the United States out of the WHO. Trump has long accused the global body of mismanaging the pandemic response and says that it unfairly benefits from U.S. contributions. While Trump initially withdrew the U.S. from the WHO at the end of his first term in office, former President Joe Biden subsequently reversed the decision. With Italy also now threatening to withdraw and accusing the WHO of being “hand-in-hand with multinational pharmaceutical companies,” Argentina’s move clearly reflects growing international skepticism both toward the organization itself and its corporate backers.
