Trump Rips Countries Allowing ‘Open Borders’
Trump Blasts UN Over Migration
President Donald Trump used his UN General Assembly speech to attack member nations’ “open borders,” warning leaders, “Your countries are going to hell.”
He accused asylum seekers of turning kindness into crime and declared, “It’s time to end the failed experiment of open borders.”
Criticism of the UN
Trump also blasted the UN itself, calling its efforts “empty words” and questioning the body’s very existence.
His remarks went nearly an hour, far exceeding the 15-minute limit.
Exchange With Guterres
Before the speech, UN Secretary-General António Guterres told Trump: “We are entirely at your disposal to work together toward a just peace.”
Trump responded warmly: “Our country is behind the United Nations 100%… the potential for peace with this institution is so great.”
Aftermath
On Truth Social, Trump called it “a great honor to speak before the United Nations” and said his remarks were “very well received,” focusing on energy and immigration.
