Argentina has announced it will pull out of the World Health Organization (WHO), mirroring a similar move by US President Donald Trump last month.

Argentina will pull out of the World Health Organization (WHO), the presidential spokesperson Manuel Adorni said on Wednesday, following President Donald Trump's executive order last month to pull the United States out of the global health group.

BUENOS AIRES (AP) — Argentina’s president has ordered the country’s withdrawal from the World Health Organization due to “profound differences” with the U.N. agency, a presidential spokesperson said Wednesday.
