NY Times – PARIS — Unesco defied Washington’s threat of an American funding cutoff on Monday and approved a Palestinian bid for full membership by a vote of 107 to 14, with 52 abstentions.
Legislation dating back more than 15 years mandates a complete cutoff of American financing to any United Nations agency that accepts the Palestinians as a full member. Unesco — the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization — depends on the United States for 22 percent of its budget, about $70 million a year.
