List of treaties unsigned or unratified by the United States
This is a list of international treaties the United States has either not signed, not ratified, or signed but later withdrawn.
Among these treaties, a few have been singled out by organizations such as Human Rights Watch, as extremely important, and the United States reluctance to ratify them problematic.[1] Among the treaties are the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, the Kyoto Protocol, and the Ottawa Treaty.
