The GHF later denounced Reuters for publishing the article, insisting in a post on X that it had nothing to do with the document.

“When we asked to review the document, they refused to share it. We told them clearly: GHF has no involvement in HTAs, no plans for HTAs, and this presentation is NOT ours. They ran the story anyway. This isn’t journalism. It’s agenda-driven clickbait, propped up by bad-faith sources and designed to stir controversy, not uncover truth,” the foundation wrote.
