A few quotes:
There are incessant attempts to divide the world into ‘Us’ and ‘Them,’ into ‘Democracy’ and ‘Autocracy,’ into ‘a blooming garden’ and ‘a jungle’ — Russian MFA Lavrov
‘We advocate for unquestioning adherence to the principle of equality’
Russia condemned Hamas’s Oct 7 attack, but ‘there is no justification for brutal killings’ — Lavrov at UN
He warns Gaza’s children are dying, hospitals and schools destroyed
West Bank annexation a ‘coup d’état’ to undermine the creation of a Palestinian state
Why did a number of Western governments wait so long to announce their recognition of the State of Palestine? — Lavrov
It seems they hoped that soon, by the time the General Assembly session convened, there would be nothing and no one left to recognize
The West’s actions in the Balkans are a flagrant example of undermining sovereignty and gross interference in internal affairs — Lavrov
First there was Serbia — ‘now the West has set a course for the collapse of the statehood of Bosnia and Herzegovina’
‘Strikes on Iranian facilities under IAEA safeguards deserve CONDEMNATION, as do strikes on Qatar’s capital during Hamas talks’
He says West BLOCKED a China-Russia plan to extend the 2015 Iran deal
Calls anti-Iran sanctions ‘illegal’ and Western policy ‘blackmail’
Lavrov: Kiev regime born of illegal 2014 coup wants to ELIMINATE the canonical Church, BAN the Russian language
‘Ukraine is the only country to outlaw the native tongue of half its people’
Europe stays silent while Kiev is allowed terror, torture and attacks on civilians
Western policies aim to ‘SUPPRESS and intimidate competitors in the global economy’ — Lavrov
Slams West for weaponizing ‘unilateral sanctions’ and interference in internal affairs of others
‘Russia and an absolute majority of UN members’ wants end to ‘trade blockade’ of CUBA
Russia is being accused of almost planning to attack NATO and EU countries — Lavrov
‘Putin has repeatedly debunked these provocations, Russia has never had and does not have any such intentions’
‘However, any aggression against Russia will be met with a decisive response’
Russia remains open to negotiations on eliminating the root causes of the Ukraine conflict — Lavrov
‘The rights of Russian-speaking people in the territories under the Kiev regime must be fully restored’
‘On this basis, we are ready to discuss security guarantees for Ukraine’
Russia calls on the UN to declare the 14th of December the International Day for the Elimination of Colonialism — Lavrov
‘Today, Africa and the entire Global South are experiencing a new awakening, striving for complete independence, and the UN must not be indifferent to that’
Lavrov: ‘The global majority is asserting its rights’ as SCO, BRICS, AU and CELAC gain weight across the world
Says UNSC reform must expand Asia, Africa, Latin America representation
Backs Brazil & India for permanent seats, calls to correct injustice towards Africa
The composition of the UN Secretariat should reflect new realities and ensure fair representation for the countries of the global majority
Mr Lavrov had his press conference shortly after his speech. The first 10 or so minutes have a ‘bleedthrough’ from the Cuban speaker at UNGA, but soon after that, the soundtrack cleans up. It is a good press conference with some startling answers.

This is the stream for today, if you’d like to pick up a speech or two. We start with Israel, then Pakistan and China is third today.
More than half the delegates leave the room when Netanyahu starts speaking.
The zionist-israeli press: “By order of the Prime Minister’s Office: Giant loudspeakers will broadcast Netanyahu’s UN speech to the residents of Gaza.”
There may be some speeches that you may want to pick up. Today’s full lineup is here:
And for older speeches, they can be found here:

This will be the last post that is dedicated to General Speeches. There are more as the proceedings continue through Saturday, 27 September, and conclude on Monday, 29 September 2025.
A MAJOR WALKOUT when Netanyahu takes the podium. Delegations from more than 100 countries walked out.
Netanyahu, your time is up!
While the State of Israel takes the floor of the UN General Assembly, the Hague Group holds a simultaneous Ministerial Meeting of 34 states to deliberate a joint action plan to halt the Gaza genocide. I have not heard much about this meeting.
The only address of significance that we are currently waiting for is Mr. Lavrov’s speech. The Chinese envoy was very muted.
Delegates are now exercising their rights of reply.
Overall, there is no change to my original assessment that most addresses from world leaders can be divided into four categories:
– The war against the Palestinians has to stop, as well as the other wars in Africa, and the immeasurable damage that Netanyahu’s wars are causing to the region as a whole is acknowledged. Every single speech (excepting Netanyahu, who spoke to an empty room) expressed outrage against the war on the Palestinians and the sheer horror. Most condemned Israel, and some in strong terms.
– For Russia against Ukraine: This is muted, and we would not have had much interest if it were not for NATO and the EU trying to make a case that Russia is encroaching on airspace here and there. The overall effect was moderate, and it was clear that this idea was a manufactured construct. It did not even reverberate. The only reverb that there was was Trump’s comment to shoot down these ‘offending’ Russian aircraft.
– For Ukraine (the NATO and EU contingent) against Russia: Again, this was relatively muted. The same old shouts that Ukraine must be supported from the same old voices are heard, and fatigue has set in. What is not so muted is that Europe is arming itself again, led by Germany.
– Climate change was often mentioned as an issue, specifically from the African countries and the small island states. Women’s empowerment was discussed, but at a much lower profile than climate change. Surprisingly, the world economy did not have a great profile, except for Lula da Silva’s initial speech.
As expected, this UNGA was materially different from the previous one. The influence of multipolarity is evident, and some speeches acknowledged that we are now in a multipolar world. Compared to the previous year, that was never even mentioned. Multilateralism came up more frequently than multipolarity. I do like the Prime Minister of Barbados, who always makes sense. The rules-based order she speaks about is not the Western rules-based order, but rather the rules-based order for organizations such as the WTO, which is still not fully functional. Many disputes between WTO members remain unresolved as the U.S. continues to block appointments to the body responsible for reviewing appeals, resulting in a lack of a quorum. The US, against which most disputes are lodged, cannot be judged.
The Western members of the Security Council vetoed a Russia/China resolution on the Iranian snapback (i.e., sanctions) regime.
Votes in favor:
China, Russia, Pakistan, and Algeria
Votes against:
France, UK, USA, Sierra Leone, Slovenia, Denmark, Panama, Somalia, and Greece
Abstentions:
Guyana and South Korea
It was a non-complicated resolution for buying time. Russia/China stated in a joint statement that this snapback is illegal and unjust, and they will not implement sanctions against Iran. This is a remarkable departure from the norm, suggesting that the US and Western countries are losing their relevance.
When I watch these great meetings striving for Global Governance where appropriate, and Local Sovereignty, I always end up disappointed at the level of ability of the leaders to govern. This time, I observe changes. With a BRICS meeting on the sidelines and several other meetings underway, the growth of what Mr. Lavrov now refers to as the majority population has become visible. The changes we were expecting from BRICS, SCO, and other new world organizations are clearly visible. What is also visible is that the West has declared a fight on all cylinders and is utilizing all methods to stave off the process of its own irrelevance. The fallout of this will become clearer in the next few months. The West is now suffering the word NO, more and more frequently.
On Gaza and the Palestinians, there is a 17-point agreement that was reached between the US and the Gulf States. We don’t have that agreement yet, except in zionist-israeli press, and I prefer to wait for more reliable coverage. So far, from all the sources, a few elements are missing. There were no Palestinians there, so, at the outset, it would be imposed. It is the old cry, Hamas must go. I am not entirely sure about it, but it appears that the West is attempting to maintain its influence in West Asia, and its proxy, Netanyahu, has just failed. All that remains for him is to continue his killing spree, and he is doing precisely that.
So far, so good while slogging through a snodrift. These leaders are fearful of the overall state of the world. The citizenry is up in arms, demanding their rights and pressuring their governments, and we will no doubt see more “Charlie Kirk”- style events, as well as color revolution-style events.
At least we can enjoy Mia Amor Mottley, Prime Minister, Minister for National Security and the Public Service, and Minister for Finance, Economic Affairs and Investment of Barbados, who even quoted a little Bob Marley.
“Standing by Jews, Uncle Sam has crapped on the world for 77 years. In the end, though, it’s not about flinging words back and forth, but spears, bombs or missiles .. the neck can’t argue with the sword.”

Enough of Necks vs. Bullets — Sep 26, 2025.
Outstinking up even Netanyahu at the UN, Trump’s speech has triggered mocking laughter worldwide. Libération on 9/24/25, “UN—TRUMP SHITS ON THE WORLD.” Corriere della Sera, “The American president’s tirade at the general assembly, ‘Your countries are going to hell.’” Italians certainly remembers Trump posing as the Pope. Người Lao Động, “President Trump speechified [đăng đàn] at United Nations, covered many topics.” Then, “President Trump affirmed he had ‘ended seven wars’ yet ‘never even received a phone call from the United Nations.’” The quotation around “ended seven wars” is a subtle jab.
Daily Mirror, “WORLD’S MOST POWERFUL MAN-BABY—Trump rants to UN about climate, migrants, Gaza, Sadiq’s ‘sharia London,’ escalators, marble floors and teleprompters—DERANGED.” First sentence of article, “Donald Trump let rip at the UN and Europe in an extraordinary one-hour rant yesterday.” Again, the joke about it coming out of his diapered ass.
Normal folks in bars and cafés worldwide must have reacted even more crudely, but what about MAGA faithfuls? Here are some comments after a YouTube video by Chris Yoon:
YTisverycool2007, “We (United States) are blessed to have President Trump leading our nation! Pray for our president and the cabinet members. May God protect President Trump and may God give him grace and wisdom to lead the US and the world! Thank you, Lord!”
Kimberly Cuthbertson, “The UN Speech, President Trump gave was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING…I’ve never heard anything like that in my life and I couldn’t have been more proud to have a President who is willing to stand up for truth and good, the way President Trump, did…At the same time…he needs our prayers [praying hands] more than ever… [three hearts and American flags]”
Johnny Cee, “Trump was right on everything.”
The American Eagle Rises, “President Trumps speech at UN is awesome. Thank God for a strong leader to stand against EVIL!”
Pauldamo, “it’s like Trumps the only sane leader at the UN.”
All those quoted have gotten hundreds of thumbs up. There are many in a similar vein. More than what’s trumpeted in newspapers, foreign or American, these pseudonymous voices give us a better indication of where the US is at. That stadium sized crowd that sat through nearly six hours at the Charlie Kirk Memorial is more proof MAGA is still going strong. Thousands huddled just outside to watch on large screens. Via TVs, millions cheered, swooned and were transfixed at home.
How out of touch must you be to believe any of this, “One year ago, our country was in deep trouble, but today, just eight months into my administration, we are the hottest country anywhere in the world and there is no other country even close. America is blessed with the strongest economy, the strongest borders, the strongest military, the strongest friendships, and the strongest spirit of any nation on the face of the earth. This is indeed, the golden age of America […] Under my leadership, energy costs are down, gasoline prices are down, grocery prices are down, mortgage rates are down, and inflation has been defeated […] Growth is surging. Manufacturing is booming. The stock market, as I said, is doing better than it’s ever done. And all of you in this room benefit by that, almost everybody.”
Tariffs are taxes on American consumers. Inflation, homelessness and hunger are way up. Friendships with even closest allies such as Canada, Mexico, South Korea, Japan, the UK, France and India, etc., are all frayed. With cost of doing business in the US even higher due to tariffs, as with the importation of spare parts, manufacturing has dipped. The world is not just laughing at Trump’s America but shunning it. Again, it’s all working as planned by Trump’s puppeteers. Though increasingly senile and deranged, the puppet himself must know it. Why should he care? Trump’s making billions through various grifts. Plus, he can’t act otherwise due to all those beautiful girls he raped.
As for Israel, Netanyahu said before leaving for the United Nations, “I will denounce those leaders who, instead of denouncing the murderers, rapists and child burners, want to give them a state in the heart of the Land of Israel. This will not happen.” To make sense of this, just replace “Land of Israel” with “Palestine.”
In the heart of Palestine, Jews have, ever since its founding, murdered, raped and burnt children with impunity, thanks to those permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, with white ones most consistent in their support of this genocidal state. None has been as steadfast as the USA. Standing by Jews, Uncle Sam has crapped on the world for 77 years. Established to maintain Jewjerked hegemony on the rest of humanity, the United Nations must be radically reformed, with its removal from the USA the first step.
Never forget Israel is mostly settled by de facto whites from across Europe. Netanyahu’s Polish ancestors called themselves Mileikowsky. Argentina’s Javier Milei is another Mileikowsky. Is that why Trump was ordered to bail out Argentina?
Beyond Jews and crypto Jews are all these Jewjerked whites. Those baffled by Erika Kirk’s bad acting after her husband’s death should know that her dad, Kent Frantzve, headed the Israel division of Raytheon! Her mom also worked with the Pentagon. Even before being introduced to Charlie, Erika noticed him in Israel, of all places. So attracted, she almost said, “Hi!” Many suspect she’s inserted into his life, a handler, in short.
Candace Owens has famously accused Macron’s wife of having a congenital prick, but there are questions about her own hubby, George Farmer. Nick Fuentes, “Can Owens got married to British royalty worth $200 million after meeting him for two weeks on Zoom. What the fuck is even that about?” At least incel Fuentes has no handler, but that may change soon. Nick with Erika would unite the right in a lovely 69.
I have a good friend who in highschool passed as a Jew to score a free trip to Israel. Though 61 and Oriental, I can certainly do the same. I’m a bonafide Kaifeng Jew whose ancestors, including several rabbis, wandered south 1,200 years ago. Seconds after landing in Tel Aviv, I will meet my handler, I’m sure. This beauty queen can handle me all day long.
Just give me a couple weeks to brush up on my Talmud. It’s next to my pillow. Don’t give a goy anything unless you intend to fuck him up later. If a bought goy turns on you, it’s clearly blood libel, so shoot him.
Speaking of which, Charlie Kirk may not have been shot at all. As he was being carried to the SUV, which was suspicious enough, there was no blood on the ground. Reminds me of Jeff Bauman sitting upright on that wheelchair after having his legs supposedly blown off at the Boston Marathon. The moving wound on Kirk’s neck is also inexplicable.
https://radbodslament.substack.com/p/the-weird-theory-of-kirks-fake-death
– Linh Dinh
Laurent Guyénot, “The theory of Kirk’s fake death simply means that Kirk was given the chance to be disappeared alive, instead of dead. That Israel masterminded the event is all the more likely that Kirk’s security was reportedly Israeli […]”
As with 9/11, the Bin Laden “assassination,” the Holocaust or, frankly, even the founding of Israel, all we need to do is call bullshit on any aspect of their explanation or justification.
Israel has no right to exist, much less to “defend itself.”
In the end, though, it’s not about flinging words back and forth, but spears, bombs or missiles. Iranians and Palestinians understand this, and so do Russians, Chinese or Vietnamese, etc. To echo Ghassan Kanafani, the neck can’t argue with the sword. Missiles talk. Anything less is just posturing or capitulation.

This is the stream for today, if you’d like to pick up a speech or two. My update from yesterday is below.
There may be some speeches that you may want to pick up. Today’s lineup is here:
I can think of Palestine (State of), Yemen, Bolivia at least.
UPDATE NOTES FROM YESTERDAY.
What a very interesting day. We saw the President of Panama offering a recognition regime with Ukraine for example. The work of the work was not in the speeches in the main, but on the sidelines. Trump had a meeting with the Gulf States and promised he would not allow Israel to annex the West Bank. Mr Lavrov had continual meetings and he spoke to as much of the world as could be squeezed into one day. The Russian MFA Telegram Channel lists these. The awaited meeting with Rubio is here.
The joke of the day was Zelenski, who spoke to an empty hall, and then the AI critical care doctor was called in to make it look like a full hall:
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s flight to New York had to bypass the airspace of most European countries due to the ICC warrant for his arrest. An article from the zionist press indicates that many European countries have made it clear that if Netanyahu’s “Wings of Zion” plane flies over their territory, they will arrest him in accordance with the ICC warrant for war crimes in the Gaza Strip. The pressure on zionist-israel is enormous, but it is still genociding Gazans as we speak.
As I mentioned yesterday, at UNGA, most discussions and speeches have elements of the following:
– war against the Palestinians that has to stop as well as the other wars and Netanyahu’s immeasurable damage against the region as a whole
– for Russia against Ukraine
– for Ukraine against Russia
– climate change
As expected, this has not changed, though the UN itself is blowing up the climate change issue to attempt to make it the major theme.
At #UNGA Climate Summit,
Tells world leaders that #ClimateAction is imperative. “The science demands action. The law commands it. The economics compel it. And people are calling for it.”
—
Everything, valid or not valid, flies in the face of the US presentation. The differences cannot be more stark. So Trump is covering by blaming the UN for a ‘triple sabotage’: an elevator that stopped, a teleprompter that did not work initially, and for the sound in the hall. Be clear, he is covering as the message is through that he was ignored by everyone, even the so-called allies.
My initial sense that this UNGA will at least show us if change from BRICS and SCO and multipolarity is real, and if it is percolating throughout the world community.
Yes, it is. It is both real and percolating throughout. Xi Jinping’s Global Governance baseline is being used. There are two of these, and the second is Global Governance that the western US proxies dreamily talk about. Don’t get confused between the two.
In the next year, we will see more action. The fight to take our world back from barbarism still has a few battles to go into the future. I do take it from this UNGA that we gather more soldiers day by day. People are also standing up and demanding better leadership and governance. This is a learning curve and we will gain some, and lose some. Some leaders will lose their heads. This change cycle will be somewhat of a learning curve and the alternative community is doing well by educating.
The main shock of the proceedings is this one:
A segue:
Let’s apply some realpolitik. Zelenski does not have a long future and will disappear from our screens. Jolani, however, was trained by the Brits specifically to take power. He is a terrorist. Let me remind you that Nelson Mandela was also a terrorist, not only in name, but in action. There is much belly-aching in the spheres of commentary about West Asia on the sequence of Syrian events, and yes, it is heartwrenching to have ‘lost’ Syria. But we may have Jolani with us for some time. As Nelson Mandela became a beloved figure to the world, Jolani may, in his sphere, be groomed to take a similar position. You may not like this commentary, but it is a strong possibility. In South Africa, to this day, we see minorities being disadvantaged and attacked. In Syria, we see minorities being brutally attacked.
In South Africa, up to today, we see two streams of media: One for external distribution, and RT regularly distributes that, and one for internal distribution, where the current authorities, hanging by their fingernails, are trying to depict the period of apartheid similar to the holocaust, which is now an industry. In Syria, if one follows the state media, it is the same, where a false reality is being disseminated. There are many similarities in such freedom movements. In Syria, we see, of course, a brutal colonialism reasserting itself. Please refer to previous writings on what colonialism currently looks like. In South Africa and for the last 31+ years, neo-colonialism has been very actively followed. Syria will not change from what it is now until zionist-israel receives its just desserts.
We will see if with this UNGA, zionist-israel starts receiving its just desserts. Judging by the speeches and meetings on the sidelines, as well as the pressure on the entity, we may be witnessing the beginning of this process. Military vessels from Spain and Italy have joined the Freedom Flotilla, which is quite large, with over 40 boats.
A little more pressure has arrived for the entity: No more playing games: UEFA and FIFA are in talks to BAN Israel from sports competitions, and the Trump admin is working overtime to prevent this. These organizations are business-oriented, and they are reading the UNGA room! They are acting as sponsorships are beginning to disappear, and audiences and sports watchers are openly in dissent.
With the changes in our world, with the adoption of a multipolar approach in reality, we will see more of these freedom movements being nabbed by neo-barbarism. It will require strong leaders and strong countries, and we are in for a period of uncertainty, where the less strong will not know how or where to turn.
We will see hopeless ‘you kick me, I kick you’ type actions, such as this: ‘Israel to recognise Argentina’s claims over the Falkland Islands following British Prime Minister, Keir Starmer’s recognition of Palestine as a state’. Let’s remain happy if the late-stage barbaric hordes fight the late-stage barbaric hordes.
Just in, we have this:
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered hundreds of U.S. military generals and admirals to gather on short notice at a Marine Corps base in Virginia next week.
The highly unusual directive was sent to virtually all of the military’s top commanders worldwide, according to more than a dozen people familiar with the matter. – WSJ (https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2025/09/25/hegseth-generals-quantico-meeting/)
There are approximately 800 generals and admirals stationed across the United States and in dozens of other countries and time zones. Hegseth’s order, applies to all senior officers with the rank of brigadier general or above, or their Navy equivalent, serving in command positions and their top enlisted advisers. Typically, these officers each oversee hundreds or thousands of rank-and-file troops.
As a backdrop, Putin opened the World Atomic Week forum (an event timed to coincide with the 80th anniversary of the foundation of Russia’s nuclear industry). He said that Russia is the only country with complete mastery of all aspects and complete delivery chains of the nuclear industry.
End of Segue
Lavrov discussed the settlement of the Ukrainian crisis during a meeting with Rubio, with both sides confirming their interest in finding peaceful solutions, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.
Lavrov emphasized Moscow’s readiness to adhere to the course on Ukraine established by the leaders of the countries at the Alaska summit, the ministry added.
Lavrov noted the unacceptability of the schemes promoted by Ukraine and some European countries to prolong the conflict.
Lavrov and Rubio “aligned their clocks” on the complex of bilateral relations, including the restoration of socio-political contacts.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio held closed-door talks on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York on Wednesday.
The meeting lasted for just under an hour and revolved primarily around the Ukraine conflict, according to the tight-lipped statements made after the conversation by the two sides.
“The Secretary reiterated President [Donald] Trump’s call for the killing to stop and the need for Moscow to take meaningful steps toward a durable resolution of the Russia-Ukraine war,” the US Department of State said in a statement.
The Russian Foreign Ministry offered a slightly more detailed readout of the talks, stating that Lavrov and Rubio had agreed to “continue constructive dialogue between the Russian and US foreign ministries” as well as reaffirmed the importance of the “momentum” generated by the Alaska summit for “normalizing bilateral relations.”
The meeting comes on the heels of a sharp change in Trump’s rhetoric on the conflict following a meeting with Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky earlier this week. In a Truth Social post on Tuesday, the US president said he believes Kiev is “in a position to fight and win all of Ukraine back,” with enough support from the EU and NATO. He also branded Russia a “paper tiger,” arguing that it had failed to defeat Ukraine and claiming that Moscow was “in big economic trouble.”
Moscow appeared to brush off the hostile rhetoric, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov jokingly suggesting that Russia was a “real bear” rather than a “paper tiger.” While the country’s economy has been facing certain “problems,” it has largely adapted to the ongoing conflict and withstood the unprecedented Western sanctions, Peskov told Russian business daily RBK on Wednesday.
—
It seems as if Lavrov stood like a bear, keeping their feet to the Alaska fire, and told ’em what’s what. The faces were grim on leaving the meeting.
This is the stream for today, if you’d like to pick up a speech or two. At this moment, I don’t see the sequence of speakers – perhaps they will update it soon.
Update from Day 1
Shifting – first UNGA day
We have a few things that are moving. So far at the UNGA meeting, everyone says that the zionist-israeli war againt the Palestinians cannot be tolerated any longer. Everyone knows that action is now required.
At UNGA, most discussions and speeches have elements of the following:
– war against the Palestinians that has to stop as well as the other wars and Netanyahu’s immeasurable damage against the region as a whole
– for Russia against Ukraine
– for Ukraine against Russia
– climate change
There is no indication that this will change as the presentations at UNGA continue.
The “Be Better” slogan is generally ignored. If I compare it with last year, it is a much more serious gathering, and so far, speakers seem to understand that the UN itself is in the process of losing influence, and the wars in the world cannot continue. Last year, everyone was delivering flowery speeches about the conference theme, which primarily centered on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Summit of the Future. I critiqued it at the time as relatively worthless.
The Hague Group — a global bloc of states committed to “coordinated legal and diplomatic measures” in defense of international law and solidarity with the people of Palestine are engaged in a multilateral effort to rescue the system of international law from the risk of impunity for the crimes committed during Israel’s 700-day assault on Gaza. On 26 September — while Benjamin Netanyahu, representing the State of Israel, takes the floor of the General Assembly — The Hague Group will hold a Ministerial meeting to present collective and coordinated measures being implemented at national and international levels.
The results of and commentary on Trump’s stream-of-consciousness speech are incredibly negative. A few hours after his speech, this appeared on Truth Social: (I added paragraphs and sentence breaks as it was one long wall of text, and bolding is mine),
Donald J. Trump@realDonaldTrump
After getting to know and fully understand the Ukraine/Russia Military and Economic situation and, after seeing the Economic trouble it is causing Russia, I think Ukraine, with the support of the European Union, is in a position to fight and WIN all of Ukraine back in its original form.
With time, patience, and the financial support of Europe and, in particular, NATO, the original Borders from where this War started, is very much an option. Why not?
Russia has been fighting aimlessly for three and a half years a War that should have taken a Real Military Power less than a week to win. This is not distinguishing Russia. In fact, it is very much making them look like “a paper tiger.”
When the people living in Moscow, and all of the Great Cities, Towns, and Districts all throughout Russia, find out what is really going on with this War, the fact that it’s almost impossible for them to get Gasoline through the long lines that are being formed, and all of the other things that are taking place in their War Economy, where most of their money is being spent on fighting Ukraine, which has Great Spirit, and only getting better, Ukraine would be able to take back their Country in its original form and, who knows, maybe even go further than that!
Putin and Russia are in BIG Economic trouble, and this is the time for Ukraine to act. In any event, I wish both Countries well. We will continue to supply weapons to NATO for NATO to do what they want with them. Good luck to all!
DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA —-
Our Smoothie was quick to comment: “Russian economy is in terrible shape and that is why combined NATO shits its pants while thinking about why it is outproduced by order magnitude, especially in terms of SMART high-precision weaponry. ”
Francesca Albanese commented: “We must recognise Pres. Trump for his visionary speech: unmatched imagination, pure stream-of-consciousness, the rare gift of saying whatever comes to mind, on anything, to anyone. A masterclass for sociology, international relations, and political science. Just hardly any law in it.”
It is difficult to discern what Trump is saying in this Truth Social Post, and even more challenging to decide whether to believe him or not. The negative consequences of his dictatorial-trying to be-humorous speech, first roasting the UN and then roasting everyone else, playing King of the world and he knows everything, praising himself, making peace in seven wars, deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize, and the litany of his so-called wins in his administration so far, evidently became too much for people to swallow. It was vintage Trump, but the ending was too much. If the rest of the world works with the US, everyone will have the successes of the US, I kid you not. Everyone was warned that they will fail and their countries will fail if they do not partner with the US. The fact that he streamed self-congratulatory consciousness for roughly four times the recommended 15-minute time limit just irritated people. Trump says he came to the UNGA to offer “the hand of American leadership and friendship” to any nation ready to partner with the US in creating a safer, more prosperous, and ultimately happier world, declaring that “dramatically better futures are within our reach.” He is also going to work on biological weapons and sort those out with AI, and solve nuclear weapons. He also called for an end to the War on Gaza and said he will still do it; he will end that one. He concluded with a call to defend national borders, cultural traditions, and Christianity, and to build a better, more prosperous world jointly. I think he also threatened to sanction Russia. As we say, he did not read the room, and after LULA’s passionate presentation, this was all gaslighting from start to finish. Opinions about climate change are outdated, and he knows nothing about China’s complex power structures, which are carefully designed to utilize multiple systems appropriate for the region. He only knows Green is Bad and cannot differentiate between the scam and the reality of climate change.
Yes, as I suspected, we are seeing changes toward multipolarity in the speeches of the delegates. How it will present during the rest of the week is an open question. Will the efforts for the Palestinians bear fruit? Globally zionist-isreal and the wars are now rejected.
With this truth social post, he may be stepping outside of the Russian-Ukraine war, but evidently still rooting for Ukraine while roasting Russia. He has angered the Global South, the Civilizational Countries, BRICS, SCO, and the rest of the world, which he has not angered yet.
His announced meeting with LULA da Silva next week fell flat. The requirements for this meeting were that the press had to be present, and LULA’s people were angered. They rejected the meeting on the basis that they or LULA would not be treated in the same manner as people Trump has treated during his supposed open negotiations. They made it clear that they are not interested in being mocked by Trump and his press.
Rubio jumped in and tried to restate:
Speaking on NBC’s Today Show on Tuesday, Rubio replied that it is “not up to us to end the war” when asked why the conflict continues despite Trump’s repeated promises to end it “on day one” of his new administration. “The Russians have to stop the war and the Ukrainians have to agree to a peace deal,” he added.
Ending the conflict is still a “priority” for the Trump administration, Rubio maintained. When asked about Washington’s alleged reluctance to impose new sanctions on Russia, the secretary of state said the US would like to retain the role of a “broker” in the conflict for as long as possible.
There was a continuance of this, saying that Trump may supply Ukraine with offensive weapons, but classify them as defensive.
A few comments from across the world, and they are rough:
I’ve always said that Trump is a shuddering asshole, and I’m still shocked. I’ve said it before, he believes the last thing that he heard the most.
Feces dripping from his mouth.
Trump says the UN is creating new problems for the US to “solve”. He also says they fund illegal aliens to enter the US.
He turned off the PlayStation.
So Trump urges shit, he said nothing, this is just the norm.
Trump encourages Ukraine to keep fighting, but seems content to sit back and watch. 
Keep betraying your base, you walking talking meme.
Trump reckons Ukraine can ‘take back their country…and maybe even GO FURTHER’. Remember how Kursk went…
Here is a Zelensky one: Trump trusted Putin for information. ‘Now he trusts me…and my intelligence’.
Trump turns full neocon: ‘Ukraine can win back all territory’
In a sudden shift, Trump declares on Truth Social that Ukraine — with EU/NATO support — should fight to restore its original borders and “maybe even go further.”
The Trump part is over now. If he wanted to speak first to set a tone, he failed. Now we wait for serious speakers.
The Global Times reported:
The US president’s return to the UN rostrum coincides with multiple media coverage of the US’ substantial unpaid dues. As The Washington Post highlighted in a report on Monday, “Trump starves [the] UN of funding, as global body faces cash crunch.” Similarly, a Bloomberg report was headlined “Trump heads to UN gathering facing billions in unpaid dues.” The report said the US has accrued over $3 billion in arrears.
Bloomberg noted that if the US continues to refuse payment, the country could lose its vote at the UNGA. The UN charter stipulates such a punishment for countries whose arrears exceed the amount they were supposed to pay in the previous two years.
For those who want to pick up a speech or two, this is the stream. António Guterres is speaking now. He surprised me, calling genocide and calling for the opinions of the ICJ to be implemented for Gaza immediately and in general stated clearly what is needed. He also refers to the other wars – surprising. (For once I would suggest to listen to him – afterward it is Ms.360 degrees in her purple dress, and I would suggest you just skip it!).
You may wonder why I am paying attention. I am expecting changes toward real, effective and appropriate global governance.
Next is:
1. Brazil His Excellency Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva President of the Federative Republic of Brazil
2.United States of America His Excellency Donald Trump President of the United States of America
The sequence for the day is on the video description.
Don’t despair. The big guns are arriving today.
The westerners were in there first with a bit of false flag promotion as if anyone believed them. Estonia held a quick and fast press conference (circus), with a raft of small countries calling for an emergency Security Council meeting over Russian airplanes that allegedly flew over Estonian airspace. This is just after we all found out that the drones flying over Poland were most likely Ukrainian drones, stuck together with gaffer tape and Poland shot themselves. The idea here is to waste Security Council time, and to make sure that the midgets are seen.
There is another objective, though.
Europe’s sudden, serial claims of Russian provocations are not about drawing the US back in. The aim is to amplify the message that NATO wants war in Europe and that Russia is an existential threat. As Poland shot itself, these midgets are telling scary stories to themselves. The narrative creates the excuse needed for the costs the European public will be forced to pay, in addition to what they’ve already paid for the US proxy war in Ukraine vs. Russia. Berletic says: “Meanwhile, the US, which is supposedly “retreating” from Asia, has caused deadly riots in 3 nations across Asia in just 1 month, overthrowing one government already – with more unrest to come.”
Here is the Estonian circus. It comes with a caution. Protect your brain cells.
The PsyOp, building narrative at the UNGA, is continuing:
Here is what First Deputy Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the United Nations Dmitry Polyanskiy had to say, besides, there is no evidence: https://t.me/MFARussia/26485
Statement (https://russiaun.ru/en/news/unsc_220925) by First Deputy Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the United Nations Dmitry Polyanskiy at the UNSC meeting on Ukraine (New York, September 22, 2025)
Dmitry Polyanskiy: Just last week, (https://russiaun.ru/en/news/unsc_poland_120925) in this very chamber, we were compelled to listen to baseless allegations that Russian drones had violated Polish airspace, yet not a single piece of substantiated evidence has been provided so far to verify their Russian provenance.
It is also telling that a few days later, it came to light that the incident involving the damaged roof in the Lublin Voivodeship – which had become central to this anti-Russian campaign – was, in fact, caused by an errant missile launched from a Polish fighter jet. <…>
We treat any accusation against our armed forces with the utmost seriousness, and our first step is always to establish the facts to understand what truly happened. To that end, we promptly proposed bilateral consultations with Warsaw to ascertain the situation.
Yet, we have received no meaningful response. <…>
Today, we are compelled to observe the second part of this performance entitled “Blame Russia for Everything.” Our neighbors have now conceived that Russia is at fault for an incursion into Estonia’s airspace. As always, there is no evidence, except for the Russophobic hysteria coming from Tallinn, which was vividly demonstrated today.
Meanwhile, the facts prove that on September 19, (https://t.me/MFARussia/26450) three Russian MiG-31 fighter jets made a scheduled flight from Karelia to an airfield in the Kaliningrad region. The flight was conducted in strict accordance with the International Rules for the Use of Airspace.
The Russian jets did not veer off the agreed route nor did they cross Estonian airspace.
Their flight path passed over neutral waters of the Baltic Sea, over three kilometers from the island of Vaindloo. This is confirmed by objective monitoring data. <…>
We understand that the hysteria of our European colleagues is to a large extent geared towards bringing the new US administration headed by President Trump back to an anti-Russian course and finally undermining the agreements and understandings reached by the Russian and American presidents in Alaska a month ago.
The Ukraine war will continue, as we say, to the last Ukrainian. Even though multipolarity has made significant strides in the previous year through the BRICS and SCO, the West appears to be determined to fight to the last. Mr Putin presented a seminal issue in his earlier meeting with his Security Council. This means that Russia will contemplate continuing with the New START treaty, should the US be interested. His comments included:
These comments from Putin are as serious as his 2007 Munich speech. “We have several topics to discuss today, including matters related to migration policy. However, I would like to begin with an issue of prime importance: 1) that is critical to safeguarding our national interests, Russia’s sovereignty, and, 2) without exaggeration, international security as a whole. I am referring to the situation in the realm of strategic stability, which, regrettably, continues to deteriorate. This is driven by a combination of factors, which are negative, compounding existing strategic risks and generating new ones.”
I did not watch the opening ceremony because 360 degrees Baerbock burns brain cells. What was discussed was climate and women’s issues. Both Baerbock and Guiterres spoke about recognizing a Palestinian State.
A significant number of countries recognized a Palestinian State. At the last count, 156 out of 193 countries officially recognize the State of Palestine. This is more than three-quarters of the UN member states.
Although a diplomatic defeat for Israel, we may well ask, So, what now? Francesca Albanese stated: “As more Western states join the world majority in recognizing the State of Palestine, it must be clear: ‘Recognition increases the obligation to actively respect Palestine’s rights to non-interference, territorial integrity, self-defence from illegal occupation, and an end to genocide.’
“Obligation” is used in a legal sense, as defined by international law.
Zionist-israel understands that its time is hanging by a thread. One only has to look at Netanyahu’s last speech, where he acknowledged this. He is holding on to the hope that the US can rescue him again. The following is a French presentation; however, I believe it is accurate in terms of Netanyahu’s Sparta Speech and his subsequent walk-back.
The presidents who are not presidents were in for this first day, and as obnoxious as ever: Zelensky and Jolani. Remember the whisper, ‘Al-Qaeda is on our side in Syria’. Jolani, or whatever his new name is, was greeted with adoration. Petraeus expressed worry during a press conference about whether Takfiri Jolani is getting enough sleep, the poor baby! What about the Syrian people being slaughtered, raped, displaced, torn from their communities, terrorised, and ethnically cleansed? “Holy f*ck, this world is a multi-layered reflection of Hell. The lunatics are in charge.” – Vanessa Beeley.
Finally (and it is fitting to leave this infamous day to history): The style, tone, and objective will change once Lavrov and Wang Yi enter the room. This is why the West took its day, as they will not find it easy going when Global Governance enters and displaces Western Kindergarten. I do understand multipolarity, but heavens, some of these little poles must go and play in a kiddie pool fully armed with their water pistols. I believe we will also see a speech from Trump. The jury is out whether this will fall into the circus category or if he manages to say one sentence of significance. (Forgive me, but this may be the day when a certain Charlie Kirk, who should rest in peace, rises from the dead). I don’t have hope for anything significant, because look at the numbers: Trump: “Uzbekistan will buy 22K Dreamliners in a massive deal worth over $8 Billion Dollars, Uzbekistan Airways is purchasing 22,787 Dreamliners,” he wrote on Truth Social. That must be enough planes to replace every passenger jet on Earth twice.
A further SLOW and quiet NO is also happening with Russia and China leading the charge. First, they refused to obey the west with the snapback sanctions on Iran and gave a joint statement that these are unlawful. This is the tone with which we entered this High Level week of UNGA. Now, they are taking the sea lanes and ports back, and asking no questions.
The fear of unilateral sanctions is being demolished as it should be if we are in a dispensation of international law!
I would think this western UN circus is perhaps the last one that we will see at the UN, at least to this ludicrous level. Chinese cargo ships now enter the port of Sevastopol. The use of this port has been prohibited by Western sanctions since 2014. Although China has not adopted the Western sanctions regime against Russia, its merchant ships previously avoided ports controlled by Russia. According to Ukrainian officials, the Heng Yang 9 vessel under the Panamanian flag, owned and operated by Guangxi Changhai Shipping Company, has been spotted in Crimea at least three times in recent months. Russian LNG tankers entered the port in Guangxi. – Source: Китай – Вавилов
For the rest of this UNGA week, we will see more surprises as multipolarity flourishes and the single hegemonic power base erodes. We’re shaking off old feathers, and shaking in new feathers. It is confusing, detailed, screwed up at times, but do see the progress.
