Milei's firebrand UNGA speech: Argentina’s president attacks ‘powerless’ UN hours after Trump meet

Argentina’s libertarian President Javier Milei shocked the UN General Assembly with a blistering attack on the world body. Calling the UN a “multi-tentacled Leviathan” and denouncing its “Pact for the Future” as a socialist straitjacket, Milei declared he would follow an “agenda of freedom” instead. He accused the UN of being powerless to prevent wars and of distorting its mission into controlling nations and citizens. The fiery speech adds to Milei’s reputation as a political disruptor, even as Argentina reels under austerity and recession.
