The United States, under the leadership of President Donald Trump, has announced its rejection of amendments adopted by the World Health Organization (WHO) to combat pandemics, arguing that they impinge on national sovereignty. The amendments, part of the International Health Regulations, introduce concepts such as "pandemic emergency" and call for greater solidarity in global responses. Trump has decided to withdraw the US from the WHO, but the amendments remain binding. US officials emphasize that they will not accept international policies that infringe on individual citizens' freedoms.
