In collusion with Beijing, the WHO still fails to get it right: Johnson is also threatening a cut in funds
In the immediate post-war period, the world gave itself over to certain international organizations to first of all prevent the repetition of a tragedy such as the Second World War and to maintain peace between nations, as well as to boost the economic and social development of peoples. The most important advent was undoubtedly that of the United Nations organization on 24 October 1945. The UN was undoubtedly born thanks to the thrust of noble intentions and universal values, but with the passage of time both the image and the substance of United Nations have undergone a progressive deterioration. In many circumstances, not enough strength has emerged from the Glass Palace to stop or avert several conflicts in recent history such as, for example, the numerous massacres perpetrated in Africa, and when it came, after the attack on the Twin Towers in New York, having to fight Islamic terrorism on a global scale and certain regimes conniving with terror, the UN has been able to do nothing but stammer, revealing itself to be a bandwagon as expensive as it is useless in the phases of real emergency. What continues to undermine the credibility of this organization is also the influence attributed to undemocratic countries, which generates the paradox according to which emissaries of free-killing governments go to occupy offices dedicated to none other than the promotion of human rights. The right to existence and security of the State of Israel is viewed with constant prejudice and, finally, there is no shortage of corruption and waste of money, which unfortunately came to light in some UN missions around the world.
It is global emergencies that demonstrate the good functioning or otherwise of international institutions, and if in some moments of history, wars and terrorism, we have already seen the superficiality of the United Nations as a whole, in this very unfortunate 2020 marred by Covid-19 we have instead tasted the dishonesty and lack of transparency of one of the most important specialized agencies of the UN, or the World Health Organization. If the origins of the WHO are more than dignified, such as the right to health for all humanity, from the beginning of the pandemic to today, two aspects of this organism have emerged, one more criminal and disturbing, and the other vaguely tragicomic. . The worst aspect is undoubtedly represented by a dangerous complicity with China to the detriment of the rest of the world, about which, net of complacent media and governments, certainties are more numerous than doubts. A correctness that developed in the initial concealment of the virus born in Wuhan, perhaps in circulation inside and outside the People's Republic as early as the end of 2019, and continued through the reassurances regarding a false situation held under control by the Chinese authorities. As we know, the announcement of the pandemic turned out to be inevitable, but at the top of the WHO it has been fished in the turmoil for many months. In these cases, either you are unable (unable to limit an epidemic as much as possible before it turns into a pandemic, and therefore to limit the damage), or you are colluding.
The tragicomic side, but no less damaging for the mental health of humanity, is that of the so-called "recommendations", which become more and more ridiculous and far from any kind of utility. Last of which, the hand on the heart to greet the neighbor, because even the greeting with the elbow, according to who knows what studies and researches, could generate the contagion. After the countless and contradictory versions on the use of masks and other precautions, and on the viral load of asymptomatics, we have come to this too. The WHO is animated by a plethora of officials and consultants, including the Italian Walter Ricciardi, and it seems that the line is dictated from time to time by the impromptu statements of the first who wakes up in the morning. The WHO acronym could be reformulated as follows: world organization of nonsense, but also of nonsense, given the connivance with China.
Donald Trump's choice to remove the United States from the WHO appears increasingly as a move of absolute common sense, just as it is wise that the US president continues to keep the point on Beijing's responsibilities and omissions. As well as the decision of the British government to subordinate part of the funds destined to the WHO to investigations into the origin of the coronavirus should be followed by other countries. Taiwan's exclusion from the Organization is shameful in itself, because it was motivated by the desire not to irritate Communist China, but when you think about it, this forced loneliness and the absence of diktat by the WHO have produced significant results for Taiwanese. . The Republic of China, because it is also called that, whether Xi Jinping likes it or not, has so far been able to cope with Covid in a much more effective way than many WHO member countries. And if it is necessary to think of a model for the fight against coronavirus , it is better to look to Taiwan rather than Italy, although praised, as well as by the obvious yellow-reds, by the bureaucrats of the World Health Organization.
