Trump Seeks Huge Cuts at United Nations

Foreign Policy: “State Department staffers have been instructed to seek cuts in excess of 50% in U.S. funding for U.N. programs, signaling an unprecedented retreat by President Trump’s administration from international operations that keep the peace, provide vaccines for children, monitor rogue nuclear weapons programs, and promote peace talks from Syria to Yemen, according to three sources.”

“It remains unclear whether the full extent of the steeper U.N. cuts will be reflected in the 2018 budget.”
