Trump threatens Iran 'annihilation' at UN as delegates walk out

US President Trump announced a "major decision" on potential strikes against Iran during his UN address, threatening "annihilation" and prompting Iranian delegates to walk out. He also promised a swift end to the Ukraine war and introduced "Superintelligence" as a new term for AI. Trump said Iran must agree to a deal after the November 3 congressional elections or face rapid "obliteration," insisting Tehran will never possess nuclear weapons. He defended the ongoing war against Iran, calling the country a "tyrant" and its behavior a sign of "weakness and desperation." The Cuban delegation also left the hall after Trump called the island a "totally failed state." The US and Israel began the war against Iran in late February, which has lasted nearly seven months, longer than expected, and is unpopular domestically ahead of the elections. Trump also announced two major military bases in Greenland and urged nations to withdraw from the International Criminal Court.
