Elon Musk Supports the Idea of the US Leaving NATO and the UN
American billionaire Elon Musk has supported the proposal for the US to withdraw from NATO and the UN. His statement comes amid a Republican senators' bill proposing a complete US exit from international organizations.
In late February, a group of Republican senators introduced a bill proposing the withdrawal of the US from the United Nations. According to the document, Washington should stop funding the UN, cease participation in peacekeeping operations, and block any future re-entry into the organization without congressional approval.
This initiative sparked a wide public debate, and soon after, Elon Musk reacted to it. On his social media platform X, he responded with agreement to a political commentator’s post suggesting that the US should withdraw from both NATO and the UN. Musk simply replied, "Agree with this proposal."
Shortly after Donald Trump’s inauguration, he had already signed an executive order to withdraw the US from the World Health Organization (WHO). In his speech, he justified the decision by stating that the organization's financial and budgetary policies did not align with America's interests. Now, Republicans are questioning the necessity of US participation in other international institutions.
The idea of leaving NATO is also gaining momentum due to ongoing disagreements within the alliance. Trump has repeatedly criticized European countries for failing to meet their defense spending commitments, demanding that each NATO member increase military expenditures to 5% of GDP. According to Trump, the US should not bear the primary financial burden for Europe’s security.
If the US truly decides to leave NATO and the UN, it would mark one of the most significant geopolitical shifts in decades. Washington would lose its influence within these organizations, and their future viability could be put into question.
This proposal has already divided American society. Some experts argue that withdrawing from the UN and NATO would allow the US to focus on its national interests. However, critics warn of potential negative consequences, including a decline in US global influence and an increase in international instability.
For now, the bill proposing a US exit from the UN is only at the congressional review stage. However, the support of influential figures like Elon Musk suggests that the issue will continue to be actively debated in political circles.
