Restore the funding to WHO- Ranil writes to Trump

After US President Donald Trump announced that he would suspend funding to the WHO, former Prime Minister and UNP Leader Ranil Wickremesinghe in a letter to the US President has requested to reconsider his decision on humanitarian grounds and restore the US funding to the WHO.

"In view of the grim impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has created, I wish to request that you reconsider your decision on humanitarian grounds and restore the US funding to the WHO, pending investigation, and thereafter determine the appropriate course of action," the letter stated.
