Like that or not, the world lives in Donald Trump's shadow
Copyright © HT Digital Streams Limit all rights reserved. Donald Trump’s UNGA address reveals a new global reality: a tougher world for countries like India. US President Donald Trump did not even keep away from the mockery of the United Nations during his speech at the UN General Assembly.

New Delhi: Make it what you want: a world where the president can tell of the most powerful nation, discredit, even fellow state heads-of the podium of the upper multilateral body-while unabashedly impeding his own Trump etch. In the post-truth spectacle that was his speech on the UN, Donald Trump ushered in a golden era, rejected climate change as a ‘lead’, claiming ‘illegal strangers’ (illegal immigrants) destroyed nations and declared that he had not earned a Nobel Prize for the Russia Inukraine. Now we all know that he tends to speak his (self -proclaimed “really smart”) mind, go from the screenplay, be dramatic, stretch credibility, tear off some, elevate others and bother some. Trump’s Unga speech had it all this week, and then a few. Here are some jewelery: • China and India are the most important funders of the ongoing war by buying Russian oil. (He also – just two weeks ago, through his own admission that the NATO countries also funded the war by buying Russian gas and oil.) • In my opinion, climate change is the greatest work ever performed on the world. • Illegal strangers dump in Europe, and no one does anything to change it, to get it out. And because they choose to be politically correct, they do absolutely nothing about it. (Your countries are going to hell, he warned.) • Never use the word coal – use only the words clean, beautiful coal. • Everyone says that I should get the Nobel Peace Prize for each of these achievements, but for me the right price will save lives. (Anyone who reckons how many times he has nominated for the price?) Last, but not least, the man has reduced the UN from his own podium: • These are the two things I got from the United Nations: a bad escalator and a bad telpromment. Thank you very much. If your head turns, I can’t blame you. Credit to the diplomats, leaders and delegates who endured his tirade with mostly straight faces, nervous smiles and the occasional laughter. There were also moments of comic confusion – such as when he said he actually liked Brazil, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, just to add that Brazil was doing badly “because it didn’t work with Trump and the US.” The theater continued even outside the meeting. When New York police stopped the convoy of French President Emmanuel Macron due to traffic banks for Trump’s car wagon, didn’t even help him a direct call. Macron had to walk to the French UN mission. Passive-aggressive repayment, perhaps for Macron’s recognition of a separate state of Palestine? Take away this? For Trump, the head issues trade, wars, immigration, the blow of the climate change, and the Europe and the UN (read: multilateralism). And of course the Nobel Prize for Peace. For everyone who is still looking for Washington for leadership – it doesn’t come. Trump is everything for America alone – “the largest economy in the world, with the most advanced weapons and technology”. The world’s rifts get bigger, and fissures deepen; The so-called global order-what is it even now? It seems to be about to become much more difficult for countries like India. Building alliances is becoming increasingly difficult because nations are now in line with ease and local interests, not shared values. Here are other news from the week: Western countries recognize the Palestinian state of France, Canada, the United Kingdom, and several other Western countries formally recognized the state of Palestine – a move that further deepens Israel’s international isolation over the action in the Gaza war. Earlier this year, a wave of European countries – including Ireland, Norway and Spain – and the Caribbean countries like Barbados also expanded the recognition. A total of 157 of the 193 UN member states – representing about 81% of the international community – now recognize Palestine as a sovereign state. New Syrian president makes his UN debut who was the toast of the city on the 80th Unga? A Syrian President Ahmed Al-Sharaa, a minor attractive Syrian president. He is by the world leaders, including the president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Council, Antonio Costa, and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Now, why would (or should) make such a meeting? Al-Sharaa was once better known by another name-Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, the former head of Syria’s al-Qaeda subsidiary-with a US amount of $ 10 million on his head. And there he was, when he attended the Unga session at the organization’s New York headquarters – by world leaders, some of whom were once dead. Ukraine can win the war, says Trump remembers how Trump promised to end the Russia Akraine War within 24 hours? Then in a week? Well, it’s been eight months since he held office – and there is still no end in sight. Not even after a face -to -face summit with his ‘friend’, Russian President Vladimir Putin, in August in Alaska. It is understandable frustrating for a man who thrives on his self -proclaimed skills -making skill. Another thing he is good at: suddenly turn around. This week he said Ukraine and NATO could take Moscow militarily. Not only that – Yekraine could actually win the area it lost to Russia. “Ukraine, with the support of the European Union, is in a position to fight and win the entire Ukraine in its original form,” Trump wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social. It is a first, even for Trump, who only months ago to the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, said in the White House and on camera that Ukraine “lost the war, bad”. Japan deployed fighter jets to Europe, North America Two Japan Air Self-Defence Force (ASDF) F-15 fighter aircraft ended up on a German air base for joint military exercises, which was the first deployment of ASDF fighting aircraft to Europe. The move comes as countries over Asia and Europe increasing defense of defense amid increasing doubts about US reliability under Trump, which is increasingly seen as inward. Washington, meanwhile, has printed its allies to increase defense spending, reduce US dependence, and greater security responsibilities. The Japanese deployment to Germany is part of “Operation Atlantic Eagles” – a mission that includes ASDF aircraft that visits bases in the US, Canada and the UK.
