World leaders gathered at the 81st UN General Assembly in New York to discuss global conflicts, climate change, and artificial intelligence, with Secretary-General António Guterres urging adherence to the UN Charter and peace. The meeting, themed "Restoring Trust, Managing Transformation," focuses on wars in the Middle East, Ukraine, Sudan, Congo, and Myanmar, alongside concerns about unregulated AI, global warming, inequality, and economic shocks from US-Iran tensions. UN reform and succession are also key topics. About 130 heads of state are expected to speak, including Donald Trump and Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday, with Volodymyr Zelensky and Iran's president on Wednesday. China's Xi Jinping will skip the assembly for a bilateral meeting with Trump.
