In a statement posted on the White House website, President Trump stated that the United States began its withdrawal from the WHO in 2020 due to the organization’s mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic, which originated in Wuhan, China.
The observations were made during the ongoing Third National Nutrition Forum, a high level gathering that has brought together various stakeholders from government ministries, departments involved in the food and nutrition value chain, development partners, and other key actors. The forum convened by the office of the prime minister with support from UNICEF serves as a platform for collaborative discussions and strategic planning aimed at addressing the multifaceted challenges posed by malnutrition in Uganda.
