President Donald Trump has ordered a major withdrawal from international cooperation. On Wednesday, he signed an executive order suspending U.S. support for 66 global organizations.
The move follows a review of American participation in international bodies. It signals a further retreat from global agreements.
The affected groups include key United Nations agencies. The U.S. will withdraw from the U.N. population fund and the framework treaty for global climate negotiations.
This action halts American funding and membership in these organizations. The administration has not detailed the full list of groups or a timeline for the withdrawals.
The order represents a significant shift in U.S. foreign policy. It reduces American involvement in long-standing international systems.
