Israel to sever ties with 3 UN bodies after US withdrawals
The Israeli Foreign Ministry said Tuesday that the country would "immediately sever all contact" with three UN agencies and associated bodies after a review following U.S. withdrawals from dozens of multilateral organizations, reported Xinhua.
The ministry stated in a statement that Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar has ordered an immediate cutoff of ties with the UN Alliance of Civilizations, the UN-Energy, and the Global Forum on Migration and Development, accusing the UN bodies of bias against Israel.
Sa'ar also instructed the ministry to examine whether to continue cooperation with additional international organizations, it said, without saying if the move will affect Israel's broader engagement with the UN system.
According to the ministry, of the 66 international bodies the White House announced last week it was withdrawing from, Israel has already cut ties with four, including the Office of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Children and Armed Conflict, UN Women, the UN Conference on Trade and Development, and the UN Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia.
Israel has long had strained relations with the UN over criticism of its occupation of Palestinian territories. Tensions have intensified since Israel launched its military campaign in Gaza in October 2023, followed by accusations at international forums of genocide and causing starvation, which Israel rejects.
Last year, Israel formally cut ties with the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees, a move UN officials and aid groups have warned could have severe negative consequences for Palestinians who rely on the agency for food, healthcare, and education.
