House Foreign Affairs Chairman Rep. Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.) on Monday announced a probe into President Donald Trump’s decision to halt funding to the World Health Organization (WHO) as officials look into how the United Nations group is being run.
Trump and top federal officials have said the WHO may have helped coverup the outbreak of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, a novel coronavirus that emerged from mainland China last year. The WHO, which is closely aligned with the CCP, promoted talking points from China throughout January and February, including a claim that there wasn’t widespread human to human transmission of the virus.
