Argentina Finalizes Withdrawal from WHO, Seeks New Health Partnerships

Argentina has completed its formal exit from the World Health Organization under President Javier Milei’s administration. Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno confirmed the withdrawal, arguing that WHO guidance was driven by politics rather than science and followed the timelines set by international treaties. Quirno said Argentina will promote health cooperation through bilateral agreements and regional forums while fully preserving its sovereignty in policy decisions. He added that the country intends to remain engaged in global health efforts outside the WHO framework, mirroring the earlier exit by the United States.
