Trump beats ‘America first’ drum at UN as allies tread carefully
Donald Trump insisted the US would not join global AI regulation and urged countries to abandon the International Criminal Court for prosecuting war crimes.
United Nations: President Donald Trump addressed the world body on Tuesday, advocating for a US military approach unencumbered by international rules, in stark contrast to calls for cooperation and restraint. He refused to join global AI regulation, urged nations to abandon the International Criminal Court, and boasted about US control over Venezuelan oil following its takeover.
Trump's most provocative statement focused on Iran's ongoing war, hinting at the swift annihilation of the Islamic Republic. The outgoing UN leader, Antonio Guterres, had warned about the dangers of AI and killer robots, while several world leaders, including Turkey's president and Qatar's emir, expressed concern over the future of the Palestinians and global unrest.
