Donald Trump Big Action: President Donald Trump is taking major decisions one after the other citing America’s interests. Now the White House has informed that Trump has signed a new order on Wednesday, in which the United States has been asked to withdraw from 66 international organizations. Trump has once again reiterated that he will work for the country only on the basis of the policy of America First.
President Donald Trump has ordered America to withdraw from 66 international groups, because the White House says that they do not help America that much and waste taxpayers’ money. However, critics of this decision say that this could weaken America’s influence and create problems around the world.
Another big decision of President Trump
“Today, President Donald J. Trump signed a Presidential Memorandum directing the United States to withdraw from 66 international organizations that no longer serve U.S. interests, including 35 non-UN organizations and 31 UN entities,” the White House tweeted.
This decision comes after a review earlier this year of every international group, treaty and agreement supported by the US. The White House said many of these organizations pursue ‘globalist agendas,’ strong climate policies, or political programs that they believe do not help American workers or families.
Officials said the move is aimed at saving taxpayers’ money, reducing US funding to groups critical of US policies, ensuring the US is not limited by international norms and spending more money on domestic priorities such as infrastructure, the military and border security.
America is already out of these organizations
The White House said the US has spent billions of dollars on global organizations that often do little, work slowly, or produce weak results. The administration also said Trump has already pulled the US out of the World Health Organization and the Paris climate accord and blocked US participation in the OECD-led global tax deal.
