U.S. To Exit 66 International Organizations
2 weeks ago
The Trump administration is moving to withdraw the United States from dozens of international organizations, signaling a further retreat from global cooperation.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order directing the U.S. to leave 66 international bodies, including the United Nations’ population agency and a key U.N. treaty that governs international climate negotiations.
The order follows a comprehensive review of U.S. participation and funding for global organizations, many of which the administration says promote initiatives it considers politically biased, including diversity, labor, and climate-related programs.
Officials said the withdrawals reflect the administration’s focus on prioritizing American interests in global affairs.
