President Donald Trump on Tuesday called for the member states of the United Nations to embrace his policies of strict border controls and domestic energy production &#8220;to be great again.&#8221;
Drawing a contrast with the faulty equipment at the UN headquarters in New York City, Trump said that America had entered a new “Golden Age” under his leadership, pointing to his illegal immigration crackdown on the southern border and ramping up of energy production. He said that all countries should adopt similar policies to emulate the United States. 
“Immigration and the high cost of so-called green renewable energy is destroying a large part of the free world and a large part of our planet.  Countries that cherish freedom are fading fast because of their policies on these two subjects. You need strong borders and traditional energy sources if you are going to be great again,” Trump warned. 
Trump said that other nations should seek to protect free speech and religious liberty. 
“I hope that all countries who find inspiration in our example will join us in renewing our commitment, values, and those values, really, that we hold so dear together, let us defend free speech and free expression, let us protect religious liberty, including, for the most persecuted religion on the planet today. It&#8217;s called Christianity,” Trump said.

Criticizing the UN, Trump said that the international body never contacted him as his administration worked to resolve multiple conflicts across the world, including disputes between Cambodia and Thailand and Pakistan and India. Instead, Trump joked that the UN building’s escalator had stopped working as he entered and that the teleprompter malfunctioned at the start of his speech.
“These are the two things I got from the United Nations, a bad escalator and a bad teleprompter,” he said.

🚨Trump WRECKS the UN for doing nothing to help him bring about peace in global conflicts:
&#8220;I ended seven wars&#8230;and never even received a phone call from the UN&#8230;These are the two things I got from the UN: a bad escalator and a bad teleprompter.&#8221; <a href="https://t.co/q2RLVV5sEG">pic.twitter.com/q2RLVV5sEG</a>

Trump also commented on ongoing efforts to bring an end to the Russia-Ukraine war and get a ceasefire in Gaza. He called out European countries for continuing to purchase Russian oil, saying that they were “funding the war against themselves.” With regard to Gaza, he demanded that Hamas return all of the hostages that the terrorist group had taken.
Speaking to the assembly, he also called for each country to embrace what made it unique.
“Whether you have come from north or south, east, or west, near or far, every leader in this beautiful hall today represents a rich culture, a noble history, and a proud heritage that makes each nation majestic and unique, unlike anything else in human history or any other place on the face of the Earth,” he said.
After the speech, Trump wrote on Truth Social that it had been an &#8220;honor&#8221; to address the United Nations, also noting the equipment malfunctions.
“The teleprompter was broken and the escalator came to a sudden halt as we were riding up to the podium, but both of those events probably made the speech more interesting than it would have been otherwise. It is always an honor to speak at the United Nations, even if, their equipment is somewhat faulty,” he wrote.
Key Trump administration officials, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, UN Ambassador Mike Walz, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, were all in attendance.
