The US President will perform for the first time in his second term of office before the General Assembly.
US President Donald Trump will perform on 23 September for the first time in his second term before the General Assembly of the United Nations (UN) in New York, the White House announced on Thursday. This is reported by TASR based on AFP report.
During his first mandate, Trump performed at the UN in New York four times
“The President will travel to New York on September 22 to speak there on Tuesday 23 September before the General Assembly of the United Nations,” said White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt.
The CNN-Newws18 news channel reports that Trump has performed four times during its first UN mandate in New York. During his first speech in 2017, North Korean leader Kim Jong-una warned that the United States may “completely destroy North Korea” in case of a feeling of threat. He also criticized the Iranian chief leaders and called the Iranian nuclear agreement a “shame”.
The general debate of the UN will start on September 9 and will be opened by Brazil
In 2018, before the members of the General Assembly, he talked about his vision of America First (America in the first place) and refused globalism. In a speech of 2019, he spoke of nationalism, the imposed duties to China and warned of Iran and illegal migration. In 2020, due to the Pandemic of Covid-19 in the UN headquarters, only his pre-recorded speech broadcast.
The general debate at the 80th meeting of the UN General Assembly will be held between 9 and 29 September, and the meeting traditionally opens Brazil, followed by the United States.
