In a decisive move aligned with Executive Order 14199, President Donald Trump announced today that the United States will officially withdraw from 66 international organizations, following a comprehensive review conducted by the Trump Administration. The evaluation focused on identifying international bodies deemed wasteful, ineffective, mismanaged, or harmful to U.S. national interests. Officials confirmed that the review of additional organizations under the same executive order remains ongoing.
According to the administration, these institutions have increasingly proven to be redundant in scope, poorly governed, financially wasteful, or compromised by external actors pursuing agendas that conflict with American priorities. The administration further argued that several of these organizations pose a direct threat to U.S. sovereignty, individual freedoms, and long-term economic prosperity.
President Trump emphasized that it is no longer acceptable for American taxpayers to shoulder the financial burden of institutions that deliver little to no tangible benefit to the United States. He stressed that the era of billions of dollars in taxpayer funds being funneled to foreign entities at the expense of American citizens has come to an end.
As a result, the United States will formally disengage from the 66 international organizations identified in the administration’s review. Officials noted that the list highlights a broader transformation of what were once pragmatic platforms for international cooperation into an expansive system of global governance increasingly detached from national interests.
The administration criticized many of these organizations for promoting ideological agendas, including diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) mandates, gender equity initiatives, and rigid climate policies. According to U.S. officials, such initiatives reflect a globalist ideology rooted in the now-discredited concept of the “End of History” and actively seek to constrain American sovereignty.
The statement also linked these institutions to elite transnational networks—often described as a multilateral “NGO-plex”—which the administration says it has already begun dismantling, including through the closure of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
The Trump Administration reaffirmed that the United States will no longer invest financial resources, diplomatic capital, or institutional legitimacy in organizations that are either irrelevant to or in direct conflict with American interests. Instead, it pledged to pursue international cooperation only when it clearly benefits the American people, while standing firm against initiatives that undermine national priorities.
“We reject inertia and ideology in favor of prudence and purpose,” the administration stated, underscoring its commitment to a foreign policy centered on sovereignty, accountability, and tangible national benefit.
