Trump to tout peace efforts, defend Iran war in UN speech

sg.news.yahoo.com

President Donald Trump is expected to use his United Nations speech Tuesday to claim success as both a military leader and peacemaker, while defending his stalled war against Iran amid global criticism. The address comes as the Iran conflict has failed to meet White House objectives and caused economic damage from the Strait of Hormuz closure. Trump will also tout his Gaza peace efforts and expanding Abraham Accords, though analysts note uncertainty over his message and world leaders' reactions. Trump's speech follows last year's UN appearance marked by complaints about a stalled escalator and teleprompter glitch, which he blamed on sabotage. He will hold side meetings with leaders including Britain's new prime minister and Ukraine's president.
