President of Argentina Rebukes the United Nations

President Javier Gerardo Milei spoke out against the current policies of the United Nations (UN) when he addressed the General Assembly for the first time on Tuesday. He courageously criticised the UN for moving away from the principle of ‘peace without victory’, that was founded on co-operation between nation states, and replacing it with "a model of supranational government of international bureaucrats that attempt to impose on citizens of the world a specific way of living."

He explained his view that the 2030 Agenda is nothing but a socialist supranational government program that purports to resolve the problems of modernity with solutions that afflict the sovereignty of nation states and violate the right to life, right to freedom, and property of persons.

He highlighted the fact that, while supposedly defending human rights, the UN has included dictatorships in the Human Rights Council without reproach, and while claiming to defend the rights of women, the UN has allowed countries to punish women just for showing their skin.

Then he challenged the UN for voting against the State of Israel "which is the only country in the Middle East to defend a liberal democracy," while simultaneously showing a total inability to respond to the scourge of terrorism.

This was a courageous speech from one of the few world leaders to support Israel, following which he was thanked by Israel’s Ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, who described him as "a true friend of the State of Israel."
