The organization reaffirmed its commitment to addressing the root causes of diseases, strengthening health systems, and enhancing capabilities to detect, prevent, and respond to health emergencies, such as disease outbreaks.
Despite the setback, the WHO looks forward to maintaining its partnership with the U.S. through constructive dialogue, aiming to safeguard global health and well-being.
