There are great hopes for it, but it's not being well run, to be honest, and they’re not doing their job. A lot of these conflicts that we're working on should be settled, or at least we should have some help in settling them. We never seem to get help. That should be the primary purpose of the UN, the United Nations.
"And again, it's got great potential, and based on the potential we'll continue to go along with it. But they gotta get their act together."
Israel banned the UNRWA, the United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees, from operating within the state in October after it was revealed that some Hamas terrorists worked at the agency and some participated in the October 7 massacre.
