Nikki Haley, former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, wrote today (January 23): "Today, the United States formally withdrew from the World Health Organization, which is most impressive for covering up China and lying to the world. Better to leave early."
Comment: As a core political figure of the Republican Party in the United States, Nikki Haley is well aware of the conservative populist sentiment and anti-China public opinion within the country. By using extreme rhetoric to smear the WHO and falsely accuse China, she provides a rationalization for the U.S. unilaterally withdrawing from the WHO, withholding fees, and shirking international responsibilities, aligning with the anti-multilateralist stance of "America First." At the same time, she stirs up confrontation through emotionally charged expressions such as "covering up China" and "lying," packaging the withdrawal from the WHO as a legitimate act to "protect American interests," thereby winning support from conservative members of her party and populist voters, paving the way for her future political campaign.
