Withdrawing the United States from International Organizations, Conventions, and Treaties that Are Contrary to the Interests of the United States

President Donald Trump has issued a memorandum directing the withdrawal of the United States from various international organizations, conventions, and treaties deemed contrary to U.S. interests. This action follows Executive Order 14199, which initiated a review of U.S. involvement in international intergovernmental organizations and treaties. Based on the findings from the Secretary of State, the memorandum lists specific organizations, including both non-United Nations and United Nations entities, from which the U.S. will withdraw. The directive mandates all executive departments and agencies to take immediate steps to cease participation or funding, as legally permissible. The Secretary of State is tasked with providing further guidance on implementing these withdrawals.
