President Donald J. Trump has signed a Presidential Memorandum directing the withdrawal of the United States from 66 international organizations deemed no longer aligned with American interests.
According to the directive:
- 35 non-UN organizations will be affected.
- 31 UN entities are also included in the withdrawal list.
The move underscores Trump’s long-standing position on reshaping U.S. foreign policy and reducing involvement in multilateral bodies he believes compromise national sovereignty or fail to deliver tangible benefits to Americans.
Analysts suggest this decision could have far-reaching implications for global cooperation, particularly in areas such as health, trade, and security, where U.S. participation has historically played a pivotal role.
