Question 1 of 1
1. Question
ADDITIONAL – BEHIND THE SCENES – BLAME – DECADES – DONOR – FUNDING – HELD – LAST – OUTBREAK – PANDEMIC – PAUSING – REVIEW – SEEKS – SET UP – SLASH – STRUGGLING – TIMELINE
- The Trump administration is working (behind the scenes) to abandon a commitment of millions of dollars in (funding) for the World Health Organization, with President Donald Trump's announcement on Tuesday that his administration was (pausing) funding while reviewing the group's management of the coronavirus (pandemic). The move to completely (slash) the current funding and prevent (additional) funds for the organization will (set up) a fight with Congress as the country is already (struggling) with the coronavirus pandemic. The consideration to reduce funding from the WHO comes in the middle of the worst global pandemic in (decades) and as Trump continues to defend his management of the (outbreak) in the United States and (seeks) to avoid (blame). The administration's review is focused on determining where to reprogram the WHO funds, a senior administration official reported. The official added that all of the funding that hasn't been sent to the WHO already is going to be (held), with the intention of reprogramming it. That official said there was not a specific (timeline) for the (review), but noted that usually these kind of reviews typically (last) 60 days. At least half of the money the US promised it would give to the WHO in 2020 has not yet been sent, said a source familiar with the spending. The administration is looking for new ways to spend that money, which will leave the WHO without tens of millions of dollars it was expecting. The US is the largest (donor) to the international organization.
