Core Points - The United Nations is facing a financial crisis, with a projected deficit of 3.2 billion by the end of the year, potentially leading to a 20% staff reduction next year [1][2] - The budget will be cut by 15.1%, amounting to a reduction of nearly 600 million, primarily affecting large departments and administrative functions, while prioritizing projects that serve member states, especially the least developed countries [2] - The United States, as the largest contributor, has accumulated a debt of over 21.3 billion RMB, which could sustain the UN's operations for a year, and has historically used unpaid dues as a diplomatic tool [3][4] Financial Contributions - The UN's regular budget exceeds 26.4 billion RMB annually, with additional costs for peacekeeping operations, making it heavily reliant on member state contributions [3] - China, as the second-largest contributor, has paid over 4.8 billion RMB in regular dues for the year, significantly more than Japan's 6.93% share [4] Implications of Financial Shortfalls - A lack of funds could lead to interruptions in peacekeeping operations, shortages of medical supplies in refugee camps, and a halt to various global meetings and coordination efforts, undermining the UN's role in international order [5]
