- Abstract
The article reports that the approval of Palestinian Authority's membership in the United Nations (UN) has caused budget crises at the UNESCO located in Paris, France. It says that the U.S. has withdrawn its 22% share of the agency's budget amounting to 80 million dollars per year after the organization admitted Palestinian Authority as a member. It mentions that other countries have followed the action of the U.S. such as Canada and Israel.
