Trump-UN, megalomaniac and pompous: accusations against Europe and the UN

Trump-UN, megalomaniac and pompous: accusations against Europe and the UN

Trump-UN: the American president in the spotlight with barracks-style rhetoric and a speech full of self-congratulation, attacks on Europe and criticism of the UN

Donald Trump opened his speech to the United Nations General Assembly in his usual style: megalomaniacal, arrogant and authoritarian. Between self-congratulation – ‘I ended seven wars’, ‘I was right about everything’ – and generalised attacks, the American president criticised the UN, calling it ineffective, and Europe, guilty of ‘going to ruin’ because of immigration.

Trump-UN: barracks-style rhetoric and diplomatic controversy

The speech was more of a personal indictment than a concrete proposal for international policy. Trump chastised London Mayor Sadiq Khan and indirectly accused China of “reckless” biological experiments, sparking immediate controversy. His criticism of the UN – “it should stop the invasion, not create it” – was harsh and populist, reinforcing the image of a president who is always at the centre of attention and convinced of his own infallibility.

On the climate front, Trump has branded global warming predictions as “the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on a global scale” and called on Western countries not to follow green energy policies. The message is clear: every international action must be judged by his standards, and those who do not follow them are guilty.

Today’s speech confirms Trump’s strategy: to capture the global limelight with authoritarian, controversial and self-congratulatory rhetoric, at the risk of isolating the United States in the international diplomatic arena and weakening the effectiveness of the United Nations.
