Who protects those who protect others?
In a statement issued on December 10, 2025, the Trump administration announced its opposition to the resolution “Safety and Security of Humanitarian Personnel and Protection of UN Personnel.“ The resolution, which emphasizes the need to comply with international humanitarian law, addresses the need to ensure the safety of humanitarian workers and UN personnel in conflict zones. It also calls for accountability for attacks on these workers.
While the United States claims to take the safety and security of humanitarian personnel seriously, it cannot support this resolution, which it considers purely symbolic. It sees it as a waste of resources and moreover refuses to contribute to the promotion of a radical gender ideology, such as that promoted by the United Nations.
