Reuters exclusively reports Germany, France want more funding, power for WHO as part of sweeping reforms

Reuters exclusively reported that Germany and France want to give more money and power to the World Health Organization (WHO) after the COVID-19 pandemic underscored long-standing financial and legal weaknesses at the U.N. agency. The proposed reforms could already be discussed at the WHO in mid-September, Reuters sources said, in a fast timeline that would confirm the two European powers’ growing concerns about the organization, which they also see as excessively subject to external influences.
