Trump returns to UN amid anxiety over Iran, AI, and the body's future

President Donald Trump addresses the UN General Assembly on Tuesday amid global instability caused by his war against Iran, surging anxiety over artificial intelligence, and questions about the UN's future due to reduced U.S. financial support. Trump is expected to meet with British Prime Minister Andy Burnham, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, and Venezuela's acting president Delcy Rodríguez, plus Gulf Cooperation Council leaders to discuss the Iran war and rebel attacks on Saudi Arabia. The conflict has shaken oil markets, with Brent crude hovering near $100 per barrel. The administration will also sign a Greenland agreement with Danish and Greenlandic leaders, while Trump faces mounting frustration over the Russia-Ukraine war. His foreign policy approach, particularly the Iran conflict, has become a drag on Republican midterm election hopes.
