President Donald Trump is set to address the U.N. General Assembly on Tuesday.
Trump’s remarks will center on “touting renewal of American strength around the world,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters on Monday, according to ABC News.
“The president will also touch upon how globalist institutions have significantly decayed the world order, and he will articulate his straightforward and constructive vision for the world,” Leavitt said.
It will be Trump’s first speech to the annual gathering since his return to office.
On Monday, French President Emmanuel Macron declared at the U.N. General Assembly that France will now recognize a Palestinian state.
“The time for peace has come,” Macron said.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas spoke virtually before the U.N. General Assembly on Monday after the Trump administration revoked his U.S. visa last month to attend the conference in person.
Abbas called on Hamas to surrender their weapons and he condemned the killings on Oct. 7, 2023. He also expressed readiness to work with Trump to implement a peace plan and called for a “permanent ceasefire.”
