The United Nations may not have enough money for staff salaries next month if me...

UNITED NATIONS - The United Nations may not have enough money for staff salaries next month if member states don’t pay what they owe, U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned on Tuesday.

“This month, we will reach the deepest deficit of the decade. We risk ... entering November without enough cash to cover payrolls,” said Guterres. “Our work and our reforms are at risk.” U.S. President Donald Trump has said Washington is shouldering an unfair burden of the cost of the United Nations and has pushed for reforms of the world body. Guterres has been working to improve U.N. operations and cut costs.

U.N. peacekeeping missions are funded by a separate budget, which was $6.7 billion peacekeeping budget for the year to June 30, 2019 and $6.51 billion for the year to June 30, 2020.

Great! Shut this organisation down.

Big deal!!

Because they are not carrying warmongers agenda they are being defunded.

Is that because they've had too many working lunches with expensive wine?

So this guy almost bankrupt Portugal as Prime Minister and now done it again at a whole new scale?!

Maybe America has stopped paying 'tax' again. They did during Boutros Ghali and UN went broke

The be honest the UN has outlived its purpose. It's time to shut it down and relook at Global alliances. It has created policy based on pseudoscience and allowed the politicisation of scientists... FactsMatter

They should stop being corrupt

So they found out after the US cut funding that the other member countries are noting but freeloaders in NYC

Martin Scorsese declares Marvel 'not cinema,' and Samuel L. Jackson's not having itMartin Scorsese does not consider the Marvel Cinematic Universe to be cinema. Samuel L. Jackson and others beg to differ. Perfect for an office run (and back!). Save $2000 on fuel every year with an e-bike! he's right he puts a prick in the comic geek's obsession with comics at 40 years old What's funny about this is that I can't remember the last time I paid to see a movie directed by Martin Scorsese...meanwhile, I have seen a ton of Marvel movies and just paid money to see Joker in the theater. Weird.
