A US delegate demonstratively left the UN General Assembly hall while Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian was speaking, in protest, according to The Guardian on September 23. Pezeshkian criticized Donald Trump's previous UN speech, saying it contradicted the UN Charter, and vowed Iran would never capitulate to sanctions or threats, while remaining open to dialogue. Trump had earlier threatened Iran with a deal or destruction, and recent weeks saw reports of US military losses, $38 billion in war costs, and three-hour US-Iran talks in New York mediated by Qatar.
