Financial crisis of the UN
Because of Trump: United Nations must be released almost 7,000 employees
The United States was one of the largest donors in the UN. US President Donald Trump has hired the support. Now the United Nations have to see how they continue.
The United Nations consider the reduction of 6,900 jobs and want to reduce their household in a volume of $ 3.7 billion by $ 20. This emerges from an internal memorandum that is Reuters. In the paper, the UN employees are asked to make detailed suggestions for cuts by June 13th.
The financial crisis among the United Nations is partly due to the United States, which has partially stopped paying. So far, the United States has been available for almost a quarter of the world organization’s annual budget. US President Donald Trump has criticized the UN several times because of its course and shortened funds.
Reasons by the United Nations from 2026
The author of the memos, UN Controller Chandramouli Ramanathan, did not give any reasons for the US payment failure. He pointed out that the cuts are part of a review. “It is an ambitious undertaking to ensure that the United Nations fulfills their purpose in order to support the multilateralism of the 21st century, reduce human suffering and create a better life and a better future for everyone. The cuts would come into force on January 1, 2026.
UN General Secretary Antonio Guterres, among other things, consider the reduction or merging of individual UN departments or the laying of UN locations to cheaper cities. “Do not mistake: uncomfortable and difficult decisions lie ahead.
