Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleUS President Donald Trump tells a UN panel that key reforms must be made to improve the international body.
“We must make sure that no one member state shoulders the cost more than others,” Trump says. “We encourage the secretary general to make key cuts and changes to advance the United Nation’s vision.”
Trump says that he is only criticizing the UN so that it can be improved.
“We pledge to be partners in this work and I trust that you will push just reforms so that the United Nations will emerge as a force for peace and justice,” he told UN Secretary General António Guterres.
