As reported in the press service of the US mission to the UN, the UN budget was cut by 285 million. dollars. So, the General Assembly approved it in the amount of 5.39 billion dollars.
The reduction of the budget of the organization was initiated by Washington, pointing out its inefficiency.
Haley also added that the inefficiency and over-expenditure of UN funds are well known.
No one else will use the generosity of the American people or leave it without attention.
As previously reported in URA-Inform, influential Republican senator Lindsay Graham is confident that Trump in 2018 intends to reduce UN funding. The senator argues that the international community tends to disagree with many of Washington's decisions, and she has the right to do so, but when the country has a question of protecting national interests, then the UN is not always ready to give the proper support to the United States.
