During the United Nations General Assembly meeting on Tuesday, September 22, President Donald Trump delivered a speech at the United Nations headquarters in New York. This address came after a year filled with global tensions and diplomatic challenges. Trump's remarks were met with notable reactions from some of the attending delegations.
During his speech, the Iranian delegation began to leave the hall while Trump was discussing military actions against Iran. Only one Iranian representative remained seated. Trump posed rhetorical questions about potential outcomes with Iran, asking, "Will a deal be made with Iran that lets them rebuild and create a far greater country than it ever was before?" He also stated, "Or do I annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly, never giving them a chance to kill and destroy people and countries again?" Trump continued, "Do I drive them into hell with no chance of survival and no hope of future greatness or generations?" He concluded by expressing confidence that a deal would be reached after the upcoming election.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi were present in New York for the annual meeting but did not attend Trump's speech in the General Assembly hall. Instead, lower-level staff and delegates were seated when Trump began speaking. However, they left approximately 10 minutes into the address. This marked a clear indication of Iran's dissatisfaction with Trump's rhetoric.
Later in his speech, Trump criticized Cuba, referring to the country as a "failed state" and asserting that "freedom" was on the horizon for its people. In response, Cuba's delegation also walked out of the session. These departures underscored the contentious nature of Trump's address and the strong reactions it provoked from some of the world's nations.
