3. African Union boss condemns Trump for cutting WHO funding

The chairperson of the African Union Commission, Moussa Faki, has condemned US President Donald Trump’s decision to halt its funding of the World Health Organization in a tweet.

Mr Faki called the move deeply regrettable and said “today more than ever, the world depends on WHO’s leadership” in response to the coronavirus pandemic. The move will have a devastating impact in Africa, where the WHO has played an especially important role in the fight against malaria, tuberculosis and HIV.

The WHO often helps fill the funding gaps in Africa’s weak healthcare infrastructure, paying for much-needed essentials. It is also playing a key role in coordinating much of the coronavirus response in the continent.

The US is the single largest funder of the WHO, providing more than $400m (£320m) each year – about 15% of its total budget. Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the WHO had “failed in its basic duty” in its response to coronavirus. Trump has accused the WHO of making deadly mistakes and overly trusting China.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel announced first steps in undoing coronavirus lockdowns for the coming weeks, with most shops allowed to open although schools must stay closed until May 4.

Shops up to 800 square meters (8,600 square feet) will be allowed to reopen once they have plans to maintain hygiene, Merkel said, while schools will gradually be reopened with priority given to pupils about to take exams.

Meanwhile, a ban on large public events will be upheld until August 31.

Football will no doubt return behind closed doors but it is “impossible” to know when that will be, says the body that represents Europe’s top leagues. Alberto Colombo, the deputy general secretary of European Leagues, said the suspension of the season because of the coronavirus pandemic was a huge crisis.

The vast majority of the association’s members, which includes the Premier League and the English Football League, are prioritizing a return to action, he said. But he admitted that a small number of countries, including Belgium, were now considering cancelling their campaigns.

Football is suspended indefinitely across most of Europe because of the continued spread of COVID-19.
