WESTERN politicians have accused the World Health Organisation (WHO) of being “pro-China,” but new analysis shows that its recent critics are also among its biggest funders and influencers. 

In recent weeks British and US rightwingers have attempted to discredit the United Nations agency after it accused both countries of failing to act fast enough to contain the spread of coronavirus. 

On Wednesday, US President Donald Trump went so far as to threaten to withdraw funding from the organisation, accusing it of mishandling the pandemic and being “very China-centric.”
