After Trump slams UN, body’s chief looks forward to continuing ‘productive’ relationship with him

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has worked tirelessly to implement many reforms to increase efficiency and innovation, a UN spokesperson says after US President Donald Trump said the world body has to get its act together, pulled the US out of its Human Rights Council, and reiterated a funding halt to its Palestinian relief agency UNRWA.

“From day one, US support for the United Nations has saved countless lives and advanced global security,” UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric says.

“The Secretary-General looks forward to continuing his productive relationship with President Trump and the US government to strengthen that relationship in today’s turbulent world.”
