Our U N share a look at United States UN budget share
The United States pays about 31.5 percent of the UN budget, more than any other member. Assistant secretary Samuel DePalma argues 31.5 percent is not our fair share, noting US capacity to pay would yield about 38 percent. He cites peacekeeping costs and 3,500 aid programs as value, arguing UN involvement helps health and security while Vietnam costs loom large.
