Tue Sep 23 15:20:00 UTC 2025: **Trump Berates UN, Scolds Allies in Unscripted UN Address**
**New York, NY** – In a rambling, off-script address to the United Nations General Assembly today, President Trump launched a scathing attack on the UN’s effectiveness, criticized European immigration policies, and rebuked allies for supporting Palestinian statehood. The nearly hour-long speech, far exceeding the allotted time, also saw the president tout dubious achievements and reiterate controversial stances on climate change and global conflicts.
Trump began by claiming the UN has failed to assist him in “ending seven wars,” a statement disputed by some sources. He accused the organization of inaction, stating, “All they seem to do is write a really strongly worded letter and then never follow that letter up.” He also blamed countries, including NATO allies, for funding the war in Ukraine by purchasing Russian oil. He threatened “very strong” tariffs on Russia if it doesn’t negotiate an end to the war, urging Europe to adopt similar measures.
A significant portion of the speech focused on immigration, with Trump warning that Europe is “going to hell” due to its immigration policies, which he framed as part of a “globalist migration agenda.” He tied immigration to clean energy initiatives, claiming both would lead to “the death of Western Europe.” He derided renewable energy projects as a “green scam,” predicting failure for countries investing in them.
Regarding the conflict in Gaza, Trump largely ignored the humanitarian crisis, focusing instead on the release of Israeli hostages. He reiterated his opposition to recognizing a Palestinian state, calling it “a reward for these horrible atrocities.”
Prior to the speech, Trump announced on social media that he would cancel a meeting with Democratic leaders to discuss healthcare provisions in a funding bill, accusing them of pushing “Radical Left Policies.” Democratic leaders responded by accusing Trump of “chickening out.”
The President’s UN address comes as the US government faces a looming shutdown at the end of September.
