America’s adversaries see a weak president when it comes to foreign policy and are acting accordingly. Nothing in President Biden’s speech to the UN General Assembly has changed that perception
President Biden’s UN Speech: Tough on Russia but Feckless Otherwise
President Joe Biden delivered his second speech on September 21st at the annual high-level session of the United Nations General Assembly. Normally the President of the United States speaks to the General Assembly on the first day of the high-level session but President Biden’s trip to Great Britain to attend Queen Elizabeth’s funeral caused him to postpone the speech by a day.
Instead of showing respect to the leader of the largest contributor by far to the UN by placing President Biden first on the list to address the General Assembly on the second day of the high-level session, the UN bureaucrats placed him as the seventh speaker behind Iran. As far as we know, the Biden administration did not object to this inexcusable slight.
