President Donald Trump has ordered the United States to withdraw from 66 international organizations, including major UN agencies, hastening Washington’s retreat from multilateral cooperation.

Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday directing US departments to end participation in and funding for 31 United Nations entities and 35 non-UN organizations “as soon as possible,” according to a White House release.

These organizations span climate change, conservation, counterterrorism and human rights, among other fields.
