In a move that’s shaking up global diplomacy, the U.S. announced plans this week to withdraw from 66 international organizations, including 35 non-UN bodies and 31 UN-linked entities. President Donald Trump’s memorandum claims these groups "no longer serve American interests," sparking heated debates worldwide. 🔥
Critics warn the decision could weaken global cooperation on issues like climate action, public health, and trade. Meanwhile, supporters argue it prioritizes U.S. sovereignty. 🌍 The withdrawal process—expected to take months—raises questions about funding gaps and leadership vacuums in critical agencies.
Why It Matters in 2026
With tensions already high in Asia-Pacific trade talks and ongoing climate negotiations, this move adds fuel to the fire. Young professionals and students are buzzing: Will this reshape internships at global orgs? Could startups fill the gaps in tech innovation? 💡
