UN-Generaldebatte: Iran-Krieg und Grönland-Abkommen: Trumps Agenda in New York
In New York kommt die Welt im Schatten zahlreicher ungelöster Konflikte zusammen. Während der Iran-Krieg andauert, will Trump mit der Lösung einer anderen Krise punkten, die er selbst vom Zaun brach.
President Donald Trump took advantage of the UN General Debate to resurface his peace-making rhetoric, but the Iran War overshadowed this image. Trump initiated the war with Israel almost seven months ago, and he intends to keep it going. The primary conflict between Washington and Tehran revolves around controlling the strategically important Hormuz Strait.
Iran has been blocking shipping in this crucial shipping lane, which caused global oil and fuel prices to soar. Iran has also been retaliating with counterattacks in the region since the war began in late February. Trump's planned meeting with Gulf states is expected to bring no breakthrough to this conflict. However, Trump is expected to focus on the Russian war against Ukraine and the anticipated Grøland dispute agreement at the UN General Debate.
The Grøland dispute involves the US, Denmark, and Grøland - a territory annexed by the US in the past. Trump's administration is expected to sign an agreement that will give the US extensive control over the strategically important island. The US administration has not disclosed the details of the Grøland agreement yet, but they claim that it is beneficial for NATO and Europe as well.
Trump is also expected to meet with Ukraine President Volodymyr Selenskyj, British Prime Minister Andy Burnham, and Venezuela's Vice President Delcy Rodríguez. This meeting will likely focus on potential partial ceasefires in the Russian conflict.
