Speaking during the UN General Assembly's general debate, US President Donald Trump declared that the United Nations is failing to fulfill its potential. He noted that in the six years since his last address to the General Assembly, "an era of calm and stability has given way to the massive crises of our time."

Trump criticized the UN, saying it had failed to try to end several wars he said he had worked to end.

Trump claimed to have "ended seven wars," including those between Armenia and Azerbaijan, Cambodia and Thailand, Israel and Iran, and India and Pakistan. He accused the UN of failing to help him.

Ukraine: India and China are funding the war

Speaking about Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Trump accused India and China of financing the war by buying oil from Russia.

Trump also criticized European countries for buying Russian oil while trying to increase pressure on Russia.

The President said he plans to discuss the issue with European leaders today.

Trump said he thought stopping the war would be easier. The US president noted that he had always had a "good relationship" with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Gaza: Recognition of Palestine is a 'reward for Hamas'

Trump said that the decision by some countries to recognize a Palestinian state would be a reward for Hamas. He accused Hamas of refusing to release hostages and accept "reasonable peace proposals."

"We cannot forget October 7," he said, calling for the release of all hostages.

Migration: European countries are being destroyed by 'political correctness'

Trump devoted a significant portion of his speech to migration. He said the US government had taken decisive measures to control illegal immigration. These included mass detentions and deportations of those who crossed the US border illegally.

"They just stopped coming here. They don't come here anymore," the US president said.

According to him, these measures also helped save the lives of the migrants themselves, as they died on the way to the United States.

Trump also accused the UN of "financing" illegal immigration and claimed that European countries are being destroyed by an "invasion" of illegal immigrants. He blamed Europe's failure to limit migration on "political correctness."

Climate: 'UN forecasts were wrong'

In his speech, Trump called the fight against climate change a "scam" and criticized countries' efforts to reduce their carbon footprints. He said renewable energy is expensive and inefficient. He praised the use of coal, oil, and gas.

Trump also said that predictions from the UN and other climate change groups had been "wrong."

The introduction of tariffs is a “protective mechanism”

The US president said his administration's imposition of tariffs on many countries is a way to protect the US economy, which has been damaged by the actions of other countries that he says ignore international trade rules.

"We used tariffs as a defense mechanism," he said. He also claimed that the economies of countries that complied with the rules were destroyed.

"The UN needs repair": Annalena Baerbock called for reform of the global organization

September 23, 2025 UN

During the UN General Assembly's general debate, Annalena Baerbock, President of its 80th session, addressed the session. She emphasized that the current meeting is taking place amid numerous crises—from wars and humanitarian disasters to climate change and technological challenges—and that only by working together can the international community overcome them.

Baerbock recalled the tragedies millions of people experience daily: from elderly Ukrainian women forced to take shelter from drones, to Haitian children afraid to go to school, and women in the Democratic Republic of Congo hiding their daughters from armed groups.

"What we definitely cannot do is allow cynics to exploit these crises to declare the UN obsolete or irrelevant. The Charter is only as strong and powerful as its member states' willingness to abide by it," she said.

Lessons from the past and hope for the future

Baerbock drew parallels with the founding of the UN after World War II, when the world lay in ruins. The signing of the Charter became a "guiding light" for entire generations, she emphasized. "The history of the Organization is not a history of easy victories, but a history of persistent efforts, undertaken again and again," the President of the General Assembly noted.

She urged states to remember that true leadership is not about imposing will, but about the ability to inspire and help others. "Helping others ultimately makes one's own country stronger," Baerbock said, recalling the WHO's role in the fight against the pandemic. Covid-19 and the importance of joint action in the face of the climate crisis.

Reform and election of the next UN chief

According to the President of the General Assembly, the Organization is currently at a crossroads. "Even the very heart of dialogue and diplomacy needs repair. Therefore, the UN80 initiative and the overall reform process are not a luxury, but a necessity," she emphasized. This means strengthening the flexibility and effectiveness of the system, as well as accelerating progress toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.

Baerbock also addressed the issue of gender equality in UN leadership. In its 80 years of existence, the Organization has never elected a woman to the post of Secretary-General. "One might wonder how it is that out of four billion potential candidates, not a single suitable one has emerged?" she said, emphasizing the need for change.

A call for joint action

In closing, Baerbock reminded everyone that the future of the UN depends on the ability of states to act together: "Can we demonstrate to people around the world that the United Nations still exists today and will exist tomorrow and for the next eight decades? Because ultimately, it is a vital necessity for all countries."

UN Secretary-General: "In a world of many decisions, there is one we must not make: the decision to give up."

September 23, 2025 UN

Speaking in the General Assembly Hall, the UN Secretary-General called on world leaders to make decisive choices in favor of peace, human rights, climate justice, and strengthened multilateralism. António Guterres recalled that the United Nations, now eighty years old, was born "not as a dream of perfection, but as a strategy for human survival."

The Secretary-General described the modern era as "an age of reckless upheaval and endless suffering," where "the pillars of peace and progress are crumbling under the weight of impunity, inequality, and indifference." He noted that humanity once again faces a choice—whether it will be "a world of force or a world of law," "a world where the right of might is law, or a world that is just for all."

"Impunity is the mother of chaos"

In his speech, Guterres outlined five areas he called "critical" for the modern era. First and foremost, he said, is the need to build a world based on international law.

"Impunity is the mother of chaos," the Secretary-General said, pointing to the ongoing conflicts in Sudan, Ukraine, and Gaza. He asserted that the only viable path to peace in the Middle East is a two-state solution.

"A permanent ceasefire is needed now," the UN chief emphasized. "The release of all hostages is immediate. Full humanitarian access is needed now."

“The past year has brought glimmers of hope, including the ceasefire between Cambodia and Thailand and the US-brokered agreement between Azerbaijan and Armenia,” the Secretary-General said.

"Human rights are not an adornment to the world, but its foundation."

The second general direction of activity Antonio Guterres called the protection of dignity and human rights.

"Human rights are not the world's ornament, but its foundation," he said, calling for the protection of journalists, human rights defenders, refugees, and migrants. The Secretary-General added that development finance is the "fuel" without which the Sustainable Development Goals cannot be achieved.

"Hydrocarbon fuels are a losing bet"

The third focus, according to Guterres, must be climate justice. "Hydrocarbon fuels are a losing bet," he noted, recalling that almost all new energy capacity last year was generated from renewable sources. The Secretary-General warned that investment in the transition to green energy remains too uneven, and that "the window for keeping warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius is closing."

Machines should not decide who lives and who dies.

Speaking about new technologies, the Secretary-General emphasized the need to put them to the service of humanity. "Machines should not decide who lives and who dies," he stated, emphasizing the importance of creating and maintaining international mechanisms to regulate artificial intelligence, including the Independent International Scientific Panel on AI and the Global Dialogue on AI Governance.

Speaking about strengthening the UN, Guterres emphasized that the Organization needs reform and the support of Member States. "For every dollar invested in peacebuilding, states spend $750 on weapons," he recalled. "This is not only short-sighted but also unjustified."

"Real power comes from people."

In concluding his speech, the Secretary-General drew on his personal experience of living under a dictatorship (referring to the Salazar regime in Portugal – editor’s note): “I grew up in a world where there were almost no elections… I understood that real strength comes from people – from our shared determination to defend dignity.”

"In a world of many decisions, there is one we must never make: the decision to give up," said António Guterres. "We must never give up. That is my promise to you."

Beijing, September 23 (Xinhua) — Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with a delegation from the U.S. House of Representatives led by Congressman Adam Smith in Beijing on Tuesday. The two sides held a frank and in-depth exchange of views on strengthening ties and promoting the stable, healthy, and sustainable development of China-U.S. relations.

Wang Yi, who is also a member of the Politburo of the CPC Central Committee, noted that this visit was the first visit by members of the US House of Representatives to China since 2019.

The Chinese diplomat said the current visit conveys the voices of both US political parties and the aspirations of the American people regarding China-US ties, and should be seen as an ice-breaking trip.

Wang Yi expressed hope that the visit will help the US properly understand China, form an objective view of China, rationally address differences, establish friendly interaction, and actively explore opportunities for cooperation.

As the Chinese Foreign Minister pointed out, this will contribute to the truly stable, healthy and sustainable development of relations between China and the United States and will ultimately allow the two great powers to find the right path of coexistence on this planet, which will benefit both of them and the whole world.

The diplomat stated that heads of state diplomacy plays an irreplaceable and leading role in Chinese-American relations.

Chinese President Xi Jinping and US President Donald Trump maintain contact and have held three telephone conversations, setting the tone and direction for improving and developing China-US ties, Wang Yi noted, emphasizing the need to cherish the current trend of stabilizing bilateral relations, which was not achieved easily.

He also noted that the current visit of the American congressional delegation to China was fraught with many difficulties, but at the same time opened another window for interaction between the two countries.

As Wang Yi emphasized, mutual understanding is the foundation for building trust, the starting point for cooperation, and the driving force for creating the future.

According to him, China's gates are always wide open, and the Chinese side invites more American congressmen to visit China for exchange purposes.

China and the United States are partners, not rivals, much less adversaries, Wang Yi said. He called on both countries to strengthen communication and dialogue, avoid misunderstandings and misjudgments, prevent antagonism and confrontation, develop mutually beneficial cooperation, and jointly shoulder the responsibilities of major powers.

The diplomat emphasized that the Taiwan issue is China's internal affair. He added that the mainland and Taiwan's belonging to a single, unified China has been an indisputable fact since ancient times and the true status quo in the Taiwan Strait.

Wang Yi recalled that the United States has made political commitments related to the one-China principle. As the Chinese Foreign Minister noted, resolute opposition to "Taiwan independence" is a prerequisite for maintaining peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait.

MINSK, Sept. 23 (Xinhua) — Li Xi, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and secretary of the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, concluded an official goodwill visit to Belarus on Tuesday, during which both sides reiterated their commitment to closer practical cooperation.

During his visit, which lasted from September 20 to 23, Li Xi held separate meetings with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, head of the presidential administration Dmitry Krutoy, and Chairman of the House of Representatives of the National Assembly (the lower house of parliament) Igor Sergeyenko.

During his meeting with A. Lukashenko, Li Xi stated China's intention to work with Belarus to comprehensively implement the strategic plans for the further development of bilateral relations developed by the two heads of state, strengthen mutual support, firmly uphold common interests, deepen practical cooperation in various fields, including the construction of the Belt and Road Initiative, adhere to a correct view of the history of World War II, and safeguard the post-war international order.

As Li Xi noted, in the context of accelerated changes in the international landscape unseen in a century, China hopes to work with Belarus to implement the Global Governance Initiative, strengthening coordination and cooperation within such organizations as the UN and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.

A. Lukashenko, for his part, noted that Belarus highly values the achievements of bilateral cooperation and will always remain a reliable, trustworthy, and sincere friend of China.

According to the Belarusian leader, Belarus fully supports the four global initiatives proposed by China—namely, the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative, the Global Civilization Initiative, and the Global Governance Initiative—and is ready to actively participate in their implementation. Belarus believes these initiatives will make a significant contribution to promoting balanced development worldwide.

During Li Xi's meeting with D. Krutoy, the two sides pledged to establish closer exchanges and cooperation in the areas of party building and anti-corruption.

During his meeting with I. Sergeenko, Li Xi expressed the CPC's readiness to strengthen exchanges and dialogue with leading political parties in Belarus on issues of party governance and improving global governance.

Li Xi indicated that China intends to exchange experiences with Belarus and jointly seize opportunities to move hand in hand along the path of modernization.

Stressing that the development of Belarusian-Chinese relations as an all-weather comprehensive strategic partnership is one of the priority areas of Belarus's foreign policy, I. Sergeyenko, in turn, noted that the successful practice of Chinese-style modernization deeply inspires Belarus and the Belarusian side is ready to join efforts with China on the path to modernization.

UNITED NATIONS, Sept. 23 (Xinhua) — Representatives of United Nations member states, including some 150 heads of state and government, will take turns at the podium of the UN General Assembly (UNGA) to express their positions on global issues during the general debate that began Tuesday.

In his address to the UN General Assembly, UN Secretary-General António Guterres stated that the world “has entered an era of reckless destruction and relentless human suffering,” in which the principles of the UN are “under siege,” and the pillars of peace and progress “are buckling under the weight of impunity, inequality and indifference.”

Noting that the world is becoming increasingly multipolar, A. Guterres also emphasized that multipolarity without effective multilateral institutions is fraught with chaos.

"The elections before us are not part of an ideological dispute. They are a matter of life and death for millions," he said, adding that peace based on international law is humanity's first duty.

The UN Secretary-General noted that “human rights are not decorations for the world, but its fundamental foundation,” and stated that these rights – social, economic, political, civil and cultural – are universal, indivisible and interdependent.

He said that “we have the solutions and the tools,” but that implementing the above-mentioned rights within the framework of the joint Sustainable Development Goals roadmap requires funding, while cutting aid is causing serious harm.

The general debate will conclude on September 29. During the high-level week from September 22 to 30, representatives and heads of state and government will also participate in a number of high-level conferences and hold bilateral meetings. –0–
