"Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, introduced legislation Thursday called the Disengaging Entirely From the United Nations Debacle Act of 2025, which would terminate U.S. membership in the U.N. and its affiliated bodies, and funding to those groups. Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., is co-sponsoring the measure in the upper chamber", - Fox News reported on February 21.
The bill proposes cutting off funding for the organization and its agencies, as well as banning participation in peacekeeping missions.
" The United Nations has devolved into a platform for tyrants and a venue to attack America and her allies. We should stop paying for it. As President Trump revolutionizes our foreign policy by putting America first, we should withdraw from this sham organization and prioritize real alliances that keep our country safe and prosperous", - Lee said in a statement to Fox News Digital on February 20.
Earlier, it was reported that the U.S. refused to support UN resolutions condemning russian aggression.
