The general debate of heads of state and government begins on Tuesday at the United Nations in New York. Trump is the second speaker after Brazil’s head of state Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. In his speech, the US President will highlight “the renewal of American strength around the world” and his own “historical achievements” in the eight months of his second term, said Leavitt.
“The president will also explain how globalistic institutions have significantly weakened the world order, and he will outline his clear and constructive vision for the world,” emphasized the spokeswoman. As part of his “America First” policy (America first), Trump had repeatedly criticized the UN course and reduced funds.
According to the White House, Trump also plans a joint meeting with representatives from Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Turkey, Pakistan, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Jordan. The focus is likely to be the focus.
The UN Security Council also deals with this topic and with Ukraine on Tuesday. The Federal Government is represented in New York by Federal Foreign Minister Johann WadePhul (CDU).
