nzz.ch (German)

In his address to the UN General Assembly, President Trump struck a firm tone on Iran, vowing it will never obtain a nuclear weapon and threatening to "drive them into hell" if no agreement is reached, while dismissing domestic political pressure. Trump detailed his attempts at diplomacy and military action against Iran, stating he now faces a major decision between a deal or destruction. He predicted a peace agreement after the November midterms, asserting Iran's hopes for concessions are misguided. The speech was notably more measured than past addresses, with Trump praising the UN Security Council and NATO. He also signed an agreement extending a 1951 treaty that maintains Danish sovereignty over Greenland.
