Review of additional international organizations pursuant to Executive Order 14199 remains ongoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Trump Administration has found these institutions to be redundant in their scope, mismanaged, unnecessary, wasteful, poorly run, captured by the interests of actors advancing their own agendas contrary to our own, or a threat to our nation\u2019s sovereignty, freedoms, and general prosperity. President Trump is clear: It is no longer acceptable to be sending these institutions the blood, sweat, and treasure of the American people, with little to nothing to show for it. The days of billions of dollars in taxpayer money flowing to foreign interests at the expense of our people are over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As such, the United States will be withdrawing from the 66 organizations that can be found<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As this list begins to demonstrate, what started as a pragmatic framework of international organizations for peace and cooperation has morphed into a sprawling architecture of global governance, often dominated by progressive ideology and detached from national interests.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From DEI mandates to \u201cgender equity\u201d campaigns to climate orthodoxy, many international organizations now serve a globalist project rooted in the discredited fantasy of the \u201cEnd of History.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;These organizations actively seek to constrain American sovereignty.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their work is advanced by the same elite networks\u2014the multilateral \u201cNGO-plex\u201d\u2014 that we have begun dismantling through the closure of USAID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will not continue expending resources, diplomatic capital, and the legitimizing weight of our participation in institutions that are irrelevant to or in conflict with our interests. We reject inertia and ideology in favor of prudence and purpose. We seek cooperation where it serves our people and will stand firm where it does not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>b.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/presidential-actions\/2026\/01\/withdrawing-the-united-states-from-international-organizations-conventions-and-treaties-that-are-contrary-to-the-interests-of-the-united-states\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/presidential-actions\/2026\/01\/withdrawing-the-united-states-from-international-organizations-conventions-and-treaties-that-are-contrary-to-the-interests-of-the-united-states\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Organizations from Which the United States Shall Withdraw.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/i\/status\/2009059107819671646\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/x.com\/i\/status\/2009059107819671646<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.state.gov\/biographies\/marco-rubio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.state.gov\/biographies\/marco-rubio\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secretary of State Marco Rubio was born in Miami, Florida in 1971.
