The arrangements for election of the President of the UN is structured so that an American can never hold the position.

Some of the committees are a farce, such as having Cuba and Viet Nam as members of the UN Human Rights Council.

The City of New York loses millions in revenue due to UN members failure to observe local laws, pay traffic and parking tickets, etc.

Efforts continue to make the UN a World Government and have our government subordinate to UN policy. That is the real problem.

I concur with all you say, especially the last statement. Unfortunately our current POTUS and Secretary of State are supporters of this effort.
