Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu Remarks at United Nations General Assembly

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered remarks during the general debate of the opening of the 72nd United Nations General Assembly. He focused on what he called a major shift in the world’s relationship with Israel, which he said had improved over the past year as world leaders and investors had warmed to the world’s only Jewish nation state. He also praised President Trump and said Israel’s alliance with the U.S. would continue to remain invaluable and called on U.N. members to take a stronger line with Iran, which he said continued to harbor nuclear ambitions that threatened world peace and security. close
