  "account": "US President Donald Trump will be attending the United Nations General Assembly for two days, according to US Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz. Trump's itinerary includes bilateral meetings and events with various political figures. Notable among these attendees are the leaders of Ukraine and the United Kingdom, as well as New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani.\n\nAs the post-World War Two order faces challenges and the UN struggles to remain relevant amid attacks from Trump, who has expressed disdain for the institution, the US president is expected to highlight the administration's efforts in confronting complex global issues during his address to the UN. He will address the importance of preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, a topic likely to be discussed during his meeting with Gulf Cooperation Council leaders.\n\nTrump will also meet with Venezuelan interim President Delcy Rodriguez at a reception for the council, where they will discuss issues affecting New York City and New Yorkers. A meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is anticipated on Tuesday, although the exact date has not been confirmed. Additionally, Trump will have bilateral meetings with British Prime Minister Andy Burnham, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, and Iraqi Prime Minister Ali Faleh al-Zaidi during the UN gathering.",
  "summary": "The US President will highlight how he and his administration “have confronted complex problems head-on around the world\" during his address to the UN, says the US Ambassador to the UN.",
