Argentina Withdraws from WHO by Order of President Javier Milei
Buenos Aires cuts ties with the World Health Organization

President Javier Milei has ordered Argentina’s withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO).
Why Was This Decision Made?
- Milei has long criticized international organizations, calling them bureaucratic institutions that hinder national development.
- He has repeatedly stated that Argentina should determine its own healthcare policies rather than follow WHO directives.
- Financial concerns also played a role: Argentina's government is implementing strict budget cuts and reducing international contributions.
What Are the Potential Consequences?
- Argentina will no longer receive guidance or assistance from WHO, including access to international vaccination programs and epidemic response support.
- Difficulties in procuring medicines and medical supplies could arise, as WHO coordinates many global health initiatives.
- The decision could lead to diplomatic tensions, as most countries continue their cooperation with WHO.
Milei’s decision has already sparked widespread debate both in Argentina and internationally. It remains unclear how Argentina plans to replace global healthcare cooperation mechanisms moving forward.
