US announces intent to withdraw from Universal Postal Union

The United States may soon withdraw from the Universal Postal Union. It is reported by The Hill inform agency.

The United States intends to withdraw from the Universal Postal Union, since the union has set understated fees for small packages from the China and a number of other countries. Thus, you can send the small parcels to the United States from abroad at lower costs than those set for US postal services. The White House considers such a system unfair.
The final decision on this issue has not yet been made; the State Department and the Universal Postal Union will hold consultations this year. If the US achieves concessions for itself, she will withdraw the statement on leaving the organization.

As The Journalist reported, Scotland could withdraw from the United Kingdom without a referendum.
