Donald Trump signed a document Tuesday stopping US engagement with the United Nations Human Rights Council, claiming the country’s funding is “disproportionate”.
The document also continued a stop to funding for the UN Palestinian relief agency UNRWA.
“The US funding to the UN is excessive and unfair,” Trump said while signing the order.
The US president also signed a “very tough” directive restoring his “maximum pressure” campaign on Iran.
He signed these documents during an event at the White House Oval Office.
