Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo meets with US Ambassador to the UN Kelly Craft in New York, New York on March 6, 2020.
The United States and Israel voted against the United Nations 2021 budget during the conclave of the world bodyâs General Assembly this week â a vote usually passed by consensus.
Among the reasons cited by US Ambassador to the UN Kelly Craft for her nationâs opposition was a line in the UN budget to fund an event marking the 20th anniversary of the 2001 Durban Declaration and Program of Action (DDPA).
