Trump's UN speech: Iran threats, Cuba walkout, Greenland bases
bbc.com —
President Donald Trump addressed the UN General Assembly on Tuesday, touting American military power and issuing threats against Iran and Cuba while praising a new Greenland security deal. Trump warned Iran could face "annihilation" without a deal, called Cuba a "failed state" prompting a walkout by its delegation, and announced US plans to build two military bases in Greenland. He also reaffirmed his opposition to AI regulation. The speech highlighted Trump's "America First" agenda, including continued strikes on drug-smuggling boats and threats to topple Cuba's government. The Greenland deal, signed jointly by the US, Denmark, and Greenland, follows months of tensions over Trump's earlier attempts to acquire the territory.
