A war of words and a clash of world views: The leaders of the United Nations and the United States offered opposing visions at the General Assembly
Guterres and Trump have been circling each other, trading barbed attacks on each other's world view for months, if not years.
Meanwhile, it was more than obvious whom Guterres had in mind when he traveled to the summit of G7 economic powers in Biarritz, France last month and complained that the world's wealthiest nations are not doing enough to fight climate change. He continued:"We must do everything possible to avert the great fracture and maintain a universal system — a universal economy with universal respect for international law; a multipolar world with strong multilateral institutions."
Like Truman, who was then weeks away from giving the order to drop atomic bombs on Japan, Trump addressed delegates of the U.N. with the possibility of a military strike very much on his mind — a potential attack on Iran that he has threatened on and off throughout his presidency. Trump opened his remarks on Tuesday with a declaration that the U.S. has never been stronger.
