LONDON (Reuters) - World Health Organization member states will discuss cutting part of its budget by $400 million in light of President Trump's move to withdraw the United States, its biggest government funder, from the agency, a document released on Monday showed.
Opening the agency's annual executive board meeting, WHO Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyeus said he also hoped for dialogue with the United States. He said the WHO welcomed suggestions from the country, and others, on how to better serve the world's health.
