During his annual speech at the United Nations, Trump criticized Iran's government, praised North Korea, and emphasized his commitment to rejecting globalism and protecting American interests. The majority of his speech focused on Iran, accusing the country of seeking nuclear weapons and supporting militant groups in the Middle East. Trump stated that Iran's leaders promote chaos and do not respect the sovereignty of other nations. In response, Rouhani criticized Trump's decision to withdraw from the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran. He mentioned that he did not want to take a photo with Trump and implied that the US president's withdrawal from global organizations showed a flaw in his character. He stated that going against multilateralism showed a lack of intelligence and understanding of a complicated world. World leaders responded to Trump's speech with silence, showing their discomfort with his isolationist views that have caused tension with traditional allies. Trump's speech, although delivered calmly, strongly reiterated his "America First" policies. He has caused chaos in global affairs by pulling the United States out of the nuclear deal and the Paris climate accord, and has threatened NATO countries for not increasing their defense spending. Trump stated that America will not give up its sovereignty to a global bureaucracy, emphasizing patriotism over globalism. In addition to criticizing Iran and China, he did not address Russia's involvement in Syria or alleged interference in US elections. Rouhani delivered a strong message to the world body, stating that Iran stands for peace and compliance with the law, rejecting war, sanctions, threats, and bullying. Macron offered a contrasting perspective, emphasizing the importance of multilateralism and collective action while warning against nationalism and the erosion of basic principles which could lead to global conflicts. Macron pointed out that our children are observing the situation and warned that the push for unilateralism, as seen in Iran, could result in conflicts. Trump, known for boasting about his economic achievements, used similar language during his address to world leaders and diplomats. His claim of accomplishing more than almost any previous US president elicited murmurs and laughter from the crowd, surprising him. Despite the reaction, he responded, "I didn’t expect that reaction, but that's OK." Trump tried to create a divide between Iran's leaders and its citizens following an attack on a military parade that left 25 people dead. He stated that he would not engage with Iranians unless they changed their behavior, while also emphasizing that economic pressure on Iran would continue. John Bolton, Trump's national security adviser, referred to the 2015 nuclear accord as a major failure in American history and issued a warning to the leaders in Tehran, stating that there would be severe consequences if they continued to act in a deceitful or harmful manner. In May, President Trump, a Republican, decided to pull the United States out of the agreement with Iran that aimed to limit their nuclear program in return for eased sanctions. This deal had been made with the involvement of France, Britain, Germany, Russia, China, and the European Union. Relations between the US and Iran have deteriorated since then. The agreement had been negotiated during the tenure of Democratic President Barack Obama. Trump has announced that further sanctions will be imposed on Iran starting from November 5th, and efforts are being made to reduce the amount of Iranian oil being imported by other countries. He stated that the United States would assist in establishing a regional strategic alliance between Gulf nations, Jordan, and Egypt, which the United States views as a defense against Iran. Trump compared US relations with Iran to his improved relationship with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, whom Trump had met in Singapore in June as part of an ongoing effort to persuade Pyongyang to abandon its nuclear weapons. During his speech at the United Nations last year, Trump insulted Kim as a "rocket man" focused on nuclear destruction. However, on Tuesday, Trump commended Kim for ceasing nuclear and missile tests, releasing American prisoners, and returning some remains of US soldiers who died in the Korean War in the 1950s. The two leaders are working towards arranging a second summit. Trump stated that sanctions on North Korea will continue, and he directly criticized OPEC members for increasing oil prices and urged them to fund their own military defense. He also warned that US aid would be restricted to countries that are allies of the United States. Anwar Gargash, the UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, argued that oil prices are determined by market forces such as supply and demand, and cannot be controlled by individual decisions. Crude oil prices reached their highest point in four years on Tuesday due to upcoming US sanctions on Iranian crude exports and the OPEC and Russia's hesitance to increase output in order to compensate for the potential decrease in global supply.
