Trump Slams UN, Member Nations in Speech

In a September 2025 speech at the United Nations, U.S. President Donald Trump spoke for nearly four times his allotted time limit, The Conversation reported on September 24. The address was characterized by a mixture of "America first" messages alongside what the publisher termed "severe criticism" of the United Nations organization itself.

In addition to the UN, Trump’s rebukes were directed at many member states, with The Conversation's report noting his statement: "Your countries are going to hell." The publisher's article about the event was presented as an expert explanation of the speech, detailing the president's use of nationalist themes combined with sharp criticism of the international community and its institutions.
