Former Egyptian Vice President Mohamed ElBaradei published figures highlighting the significant disparity between the United Nations' budgets and global military spending. The United Nations' budget for 2026 is approximately $3.45 billion, with $5.38 billion allocated for peacekeeping operations. In contrast, the budgets of other UN organizations exceed $58 billion, bringing the total to $67 billion annually. Meanwhile, global military expenditure for 2025 is estimated at about $2.887 trillion, more than 40 times what the UN spends on international cooperation. ElBaradei considered this a severe imbalance in resource allocation and emphasized the need to reevaluate international priorities.
