United States’ importance in the world and what would happen if it left the United Nations.

The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. It is currently made up of 193 Member States/Countries and its mission is to promote international co-operation. Fully alarmed, the General Assembly will give a quick introduction referring to a recent situation. 48 hours after Trump’s inauguration as the 45^th president of the United States of America, a shocking report started circulating and saying that “A bill was introduced early January that calls for the removal of the United States from the United Nations.” Recognizing that this is an interesting topic to discuss in the General Assembly Committee because this could affect the whole world economy, relations and agreements between countries. Trump shared his thoughts about the UN on Twitter, “The UN has such great potential but right now it is just a club for people to get together, talk and have a good time.” He said. Ignorant people like him, that form part in the politics, would be the responsible for this decision. Further deploring towards this type of arguments and thoughts coming out of the actual US president’s mind. 

Deeply concerned about it, considering that economies around the globe would immediately destabilize and the US would be the worst hit. Stock markets would be in complete chaos. The UN headquarters would be relocated temporarily in a neutral country. This would agitate its diplomatic relations with all other nations. The country itself would face counter actions from hostile countries. Taking in consideration that countries like Saudi Arabia, Japan, South Korea and various countries that belong to the European Union would launch their own nuclear programs, this because there would be no international pressures blocking them from doing it. Considering treaties such as the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty of the UN. The European Union would become much stronger regarding to military and politics, causing the rejection of any influence coming from the United States. The American free trade with all nations would likely come to an end. It would reverse decades of diplomacy and international cohesion.
