At the United Nations, US President Donald Trump lambasted the United Nations (UN), questioning its purpose as America attempts to solve global conflicts unilaterally, and even linking challenges like huge waves of immigration into the West with the UN’s mandate.

It was a stunning moment—to put it mildly. The country that built the UN decades ago was now debating its relevance and challenging its raison d’être. But, Trump’s speech may have been far more than public criticism of one of the world’s oldest institutions. It may have been a formal warning that America is on the verge of quitting the UN—like it has quit the WHO—depending on what happens next.
