UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned the Trump administration on Tuesday that if the United States disengages from many issues confronting the international community it will be replaced — and that won't be good for America or for the world. Guterres made clear to reporters at his first press conference here since taking the reins of the United Nations on Jan. 1 that proposed cuts in U.S. funding for the U.N. would be disastrous and create "an unsolvable problem to the management of the U.N." But the U.N. chief stressed that he is not afraid to stand up to President Donald Trump, citing his vocal opposition to the U.S. leader's withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement. He said the mobilization of U.S. business and civil society in support or the climate deal is "a signal of hope that we very much encourage." Looking at the array of global crises, Guterres expressed concern that there could be a direct confrontation between the United States and Russia over Syria and urged a de-escalation of the dispute between Washington and Moscow over the U.S. downing of a Syrian jet. This is very important, he said, "because these kind of incidents can be very dangerous in a conflict situation in which there are so many actors, and in which the situation is so complex on the ground." "So, indeed, I am concerned, and I hope that this will not lead to any escalation of the conflict that is already as dramatic as it is," Guterres said.
So what you are saying is that the United Nations would have a difficult time policing the world if the united states does not pay their fair share (and then cover the expenses of all the other member nations that will not pay their fair share)
Thank you Mr. Guterres for stating the obvious, and a special thanks goes out to the associated press (AP) for covering the story in such a way that allows people to not understand the problem. So I think that the (AP) should have included the following chart
