Trump Orders US Withdrawal from 66 International Organizations

Donald Trump announced the withdrawal of the United States from 66 international organizations through a presidential memorandum. The move, according to the White House, aims to end participation and funding of bodies that no longer serve American interests. The decision was based on a comprehensive review of international organizations in which the US participates. The White House accuses some of these organizations of promoting policies contrary to American sovereignty and economic prosperity, such as radical climate policies and forms of global governance. This withdrawal is the most extensive to date by the Trump administration from multilateral international cooperation.
