President Trump will sign an executive order withdrawing the United States from the UN Human Rights Council and cut funding to UNRWA. – the agency that provides aid to Gaza.
The current president of the so-called ‘Human Rights Council’ is Ambassador Jürg Lauber of Switzerland.
Trump will also prohibit “future funding for the U.N. relief agency for Gaza,” Politico reported.
“The UNHRC has demonstrated consistent bias against Israel, focusing on it unfairly and disproportionately in council proceedings,” the document said, according to Politico. “In 2018, the year President Trump withdrew from the UNHRC in his first administration, the organization passed more resolutions condemning Israel than Syria, Iran, and North Korea combined.”
