The problem is that the US Empire has a massively outsized influence over these multinational organizations, they serve to legitimize and facilitate Empire more than solve problems.
Yeah, the U.S. has been routinely undercutting them. I think it escalated to true bipartisan normalization that we don't GAF with the Iraq War. And in both Russia and Israel that voice could have been helpful, because it's too easy to dismiss the U.S. for its (well earned) lack of moral authority.
The US isn't really undercutting them, but propping up systems it can control, like the IMF and NATO.
