(New York) President Trump spoke to the UN today and he talked sense.
data-lang="en">Out of the 193 countries which make up the UN, the top 20countries contribute 83.78% while the other 173 countries contribute 16.22% only. The top 10 contributors account for 68.89% of the total contributions. The total regular UN budget for the year 2016-17 is $ 5.6 billion.
We commend SG @AntonioGuterres & his call for the UN to focus more on people & less on bureaucracy. #USAatUNGA #UNGA https://t.co/KVvCMznmcN pic.twitter.com/UQn6RrC9Xw— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 18, 2017
Yet ironically those countries which pay the most are the ones who get attacked by the freeloaders the most. Its long overdue that everybody starts to chip into the UN budget.
