In light of numerous actions taken by a number of bodies of the United Nations,
which exhibit a deep anti-American
bias,
we have an executive order prepared for your attention
that would withdraw the United States from the UN Human Rights Council,
would withdraw the United States from the UNRWA,
which is a refugee organization,
and would also review American involvement
in UNESCO, which has also exhibited anti-American bias.
More Generally, the executive order calls for a review
of American
involvement and funding in the UN in light of the wild disparities in levels of funding
among different countries
that, as you've expressed previously,
is deeply unfair to the United States.
So I've always felt that the UN has tremendous potential.
It's not living up to that potential right now. It really isn't. Hasn't for a long time.
It has.
There are great hopes for it.
But
it's not being well run, to be honest, and they're not doing
the job. A lot of these conflicts that we're working on should be settled, or at least we should have some help in settling them. We never seem to get help. That should be the primary purpose of the UN, the United Nations.
And again, it's got great potential, and based on the potential, we'll continue to go along with it, but we've got to get their act together.
What would they need to do, sir, to get their act together? Well, they've got to be fair to countries that deserve fairness.
They have some countries, as you know, that are
outliers, that are very bad, and they're being almost preferred as countries to
those that
do their job and are doing a good job and they have to really,
they're gonna end up losing a lot of countries, they're gonna end up losing their credibility like other organizations
and then they're gonna be nothing.
The potential of the United Nations, and not everybody agrees with me on this,
the potential of the United Nations is fantastic,
if properly run.
So we'll see what happens.
