In a post on Twitter, the U.S. president emphasized that no final decision had been made and that funding for the global health agency remained frozen.
President Donald Trump said he is considering partially restoring funding to the World Health Organization after halting contributions to the UN agency in April.
"This is just one of numerous concepts being considered under which we would pay 10% of what we have been paying over many years, matching much lower China payments. Have not made final decision. All funds are frozen," Trump tweeted Saturday morning. Fox News, citing a leaked draft letter, reported on Friday that Trump was poised to restore partial funding to the WHOTrump suspended U.S. contributions to the WHO on April 14, saying funding would be on hold for 60 to 90 days depending on a review of the WHO's warnings about COVID-19 and China.
"The reality is that the WHO failed to adequately obtain, vet and share information in a timely and transparent fashion," Trump said during a media briefing in the White House Rose Garden last month.
