UNESCO's decision to admit the 'State of Palestine' as a member state is highly problematic, US said.
The head of the UN cultural agency UNESCO said Tuesday she regretted the US decision to withdraw from the organisation, but added the move had come as no surprise.
"I deeply regret President Donald Trump's decision to once again withdraw the United States of America from UNESCO," Director-General Audrey Azoulay said.
"However regrettable, this announcement was expected, and UNESCO has prepared for it".
