US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order withdrawing his country from a number of United Nations bodies, including its Human Rights Council (UNHRC), and setting up a broader review of US funding for the multilateral organization.

The moves were made in protest against what White House staff secretary Will Scharf described as “anti-American bias” at the UN agencies.
