#Trump Set to Address #UNGA

Trump’s speech comes as the #US has withdrawn funding & support for #UN programs. The UN’s secretary general warned that the organization’s principles “are under siege.”

President Trump said Ukraine might be able to reclaim all its lost territory in the war against Russia. Earlier, he suggested NATO countries should shoot down Russian military aircraft that enter their airspace.

#Brazil president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, is the first world leader to address #UNGA, after the UN’s secretary general & the Assembly’s president, because of tradition. The representative from Brazil has spoken first since the mid-1950s because, at the time, no other country’s leader was willing to do so. That position is now considered a coveted slot that can help set the tone for the week.

As the #US is the host nation to the #UN HQ in NY, #Trump, will be the second leader to speak.

#Brazil’s president, Luiz Inácio #Lula da Silva, opens his speech at the #UnitedNations painting a dark picture of global #diplomacy, sharply criticizing attacks on #sovereignty & the use of arbitrary #sanctions. “Our sovereignty & our #democracy are non-negotiable,” he says.

Impunity for those who try to undermine Brazil’s #democracy is not an option, Lula says.

“Your countries are being ruined” because of immigration, #Trump tells the representatives from countries gathered at the UN.

The speech has turned to a wandering series of complaints, including #immigration to Britain and criticism of London’s mayor, Sadiq Khan, who is Muslim. But so far there is no description of a vision for what the #UN should become, 80 years after its founding.

“I’m really good at this stuff. Your countries are going to hell,” Trump says.
