U.S. President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to withdraw the United States from 66 international organizations and institutes, which, in his view, no longer serve the national interests of the country. This information was published on White House’s official website.
Of the total number, 31 organizations are affiliated with the United Nations. The order states that their activities contradict U.S. interests and threaten national security, economic development, or sovereignty. The order mandates that all federal agencies and departments immediately cease funding for these organizations.
The White House emphasized that the decision aims to stop the use of American taxpayers' money to support institutions that promote a globalist agenda at the expense of U.S. priorities or operate inefficiently and irrationally.
A complete list of the organizations has been published on the president's administration website. It includes the Venice Commission, the UN International Law Commission, the UN International Trade Centre, the Ukrainian Scientific and Technology Center, and the UN Secretary-General’s Special Representative on Violence Against Children.
Earlier, during his second term, Trump also signed orders for the U.S. to withdraw from the World Health Organization (WHO), the UN Human Rights Council, the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees, and UNESCO. The withdrawal from UNESCO will take effect in December 2026.
