US will only pay 25 percent of UN peacekeeping from now on, Haley says
By: Jennifer Peltz, The Associated Press   3 days ago


UNITED NATIONS — The United States will no longer shoulder more than a quarter of the multibillion-dollar costs of the United Nations’ peacekeeping operations, Washington’s envoy said Wednesday.

“Peacekeeping is a shared responsibility,” U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley said at a Security Council debate on peacekeeping reform. “All of us have a role to play, and all of us must step up.”

25%?

That's outrageous.

We should drop that to 10%.
Better yet, how about 5?
