**Message to the Senate on the Withdrawal of the Arms Trade Treaty **

*April 29, 2019 *

*To the Senate of the United States: *

I have concluded that it is not in the interest of the United States to become a party to the Arms Trade Treaty (Senate Treaty Doc. 114–14, transmitted December 9, 2016). I have, therefore, decided to withdraw the aforementioned treaty from the Senate and accordingly request that it be returned to me.

DONALD J. TRUMP
