US President Donald Trump announced that he has removed the United States from dozens of international and United Nations entities in a shock move.

It's been a busy 12 months for Trump, who has been on a constant path to making ‘America Great Again’ via the use of imposing more regulations on medications and drugs, immigration, and its working relationship with other nations.

Within this spec comes his decision to cut ties with 35 non-UN groups and 31 UN entities, including a UN body promoting gender equality, as well as a climate change deal.

The news comes after the US was absent from the UN international climate summit last year, making it the first time they didn’t show in three decades.

The US is also set to stop UN Women, the U.N. Population Fund (the international body’s agency for family planning and maternal and child health), and more.

"For United Nations entities, withdrawal means ceasing participation in or funding to those entities to the extent permitted by law," read the memo announcing the departure.

However, this isn’t an out-of-character move.

Trump has long slashed funding for the United Nations and announced plans to quit the World Health Organization and the Paris climate agreement when he first took Office in 2016.

But this time, he’s including bodies like the U.N. Conference on Trade and Development, the International Energy Forum, the U.N. Register of Conventional Arms and the U.N. Peacebuilding Commission in his plans.

This is because the White House claim they promote ‘radical climate policies, global governance, and ideological programs that conflict with U.S. sovereignty and economic strength’.

"These withdrawals will end American taxpayer funding and involvement in entities that advance globalist agendas over U.S. priorities, or that address important issues inefficiently or ineffectively such that U.S. taxpayer dollars are best allocated in other ways to support the relevant missions," the White House said in a statement, per The Independent.

Here is the list of the non-U. N. organisations the US will no longer work with:

— 24/7 Carbon-Free Energy Compact

— Colombo Plan Council
