Trump cuts us off from the UN Human Rights Council, forbids Unrwa financing

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday Setting the US setting with the UN human Rights Council and the ban on financing for the UN aid agency for GAZA.

The command came when the president is supposed to meet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Trump said on Tuesday when he signed the executive ordinance that requires a review of the financing to the UN that the UN has enormous potential but did not go well, and added that they “had to bring their action together”.

The United States has long accused the human rights council of bias against Israel and fade away from the human rights violations of other nations.

The Biden administration held the financing of the United Nations auxiliary and employment agency for Palestine refugees in the Middle East (Unrwa) after reporting that some of their employees were involved in some of Hamas’ terrorist attacks on Israel on October 7, 2023 .

Trump had withdrawn the United States from the UN Human Rights Council during its first government, but former President Joe Biden resigned. In 2023, US funds made almost 30% of Unrwa donor contributions.

The United States is currently not a member of the council, but is considered an observer.

The Council consists of 47 Member States, including those with documented records on human rights violations such as Cuba, Russia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Eritrea, China and Qatar.

At the weekend, members of the parliament from 14 European countries appealed to the UN Secretary-General António Guterres and asked him to remove “UNCHAUS as a UN agency” based on the testimony of a freeded Israeli hostage that said that she was captured in a untrwa facility .

Emily Damari, a British-Israeli woman, told the British Prime Minister Keir Starrer that she had been recorded in institutions of the auxiliary agency, and Hamas had refused her medical care after shot her twice.

The Unrwa spokesman Juliette Touma told the BBC that the UNRWA asked to report examinations that Hamas had used its facilities.

“These claims that the hosts were held hostage in Unrwa, even if they have been cleared, are absolutely serious,” she said. “We have repeatedly requested independent studies on these claims, including abuse and disregard for UNRWA premises through Palestinian -armed groups. This also includes Hamas.”

In the meantime, an Israeli ban on the Unrwa came into force and international employees last week had to leave the country, a step that would recover the agency “Sabotage Gazas for the agency and sabotage the political transition”.

Unrwa is the main agency, which is responsible for distributing help to Palestinians in the middle of the offensive campaign of Israel in Gaza. But the United Nations released nine employees after an internal probe found that they might be involved in the attack on October 7 on October 7th.

The ambassador of Israel in the UN Danny Danon praised Trump’s step and said that the council “has not promoted human rights for long-not promoting extreme anti-Semitism aggressively.”

“At the same time, the Unrwa has long lost its status as an independent humanitarian organization and turned into a terrorist authority controlled by Hamas,” continued.

In the meantime, Arabic diplomats from important US partners are working on the support of the UNRWA. In a joint statement after a meeting in Cairo Over the Weekend, Foreign Minister from Qatar, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Egypt Affirmed the “Pivotal, Indispensable, and irreplacable role” of Unrwa and “Categorically Rejected Any Attempts To Bypass or reduce his role.
