Sobre la UE en la ONU
Vista de conjunto: La Union Europea en las Naciones Unidas

The EU and its Member States collectively are the single largest financial contributor to the UN system. The sum of the contributions of EU Member States amounts to 34.889% of the UN regular budget and 36.764% of the UN peacekeeping budgets, and about one-half of all UN Member States' contributions to UN funds and programmes. The European Commission alone contributes more than $1.35 billion in support of UN external assistance programmes and projects.

The EU works with all UN bodies, agencies and programmes across virtually the entire range of UN activities, from development policy and peacebuilding to humanitarian assistance, environment, human rights, and culture.

As an observer within the UN, the EU has no vote as such but is party to more than 50 UN multilateral agreements and conventions as the only non-State participant. It has obtained a special "full participant" status in a number of important UN conferences.
