I so enjoy Netanyahu's succinct delivery. He never disappoints..and, yes, I continually pray for his coming to a saving knowledge of Christ.

Re: United Nations

Leaders must decide whether to ‘go it alone,’ or work together for better world, Germany tells UN

“The United States is also faced with a choice; in six weeks’ time, here too, the choice is about the supposed withdrawal from a crisis-ridden world – which some are calling for – or cooperation with international partners to solve some of those problems, he continues, noting that this choice “is important for all of us.” Indeed, “withdrawal, resignation, going it alone, or, responsibility for a better future; that is the choice in many places,” he said.

It is time for a long-term humanitarian ceasefire that will allow aid to reach those in need, he said, adding that Moscow also has a responsibility in that regard. “If we do not succeed, all efforts to bring peace will be lost in a hail of bombs,” he said, noting that the Syrian regime is continuing to “bomb Aleppo to bits.” He declared: “There will be no winners in this war.”

Noting that “new rifts” have emerged in Europe following “Russia’s annexation of Crimea,” he said it is important to step up dialogue between East and West, but the UN is necessary to ensure that diverging interests and opinions do not turn into lasting divisions

“The great dialectic of our times is between being open and being closed: between those who wish for an open, transparent, cooperative, dynamic world with strong multilateral institutions; and those who wish for a closed, opaque, static world in which each country only and exclusively looks after its own interests,” he said.
The road to opening up to commitment, to negotiation and to multilateralism, is the path Andorra and others have been following for decades under the auspices of the United Nations. “The path to closing down is the reflection of fear and is a recipe for populism and opportunism. When faced by an economic crisis of a global scope: withdrawal and protectionism. When faced by a threat to security of global scope: closing down borders,” said Mr. Petit, expressing the hope that all delegations attending the general debate would not chose such a path, but renew their confidence in multilateralism and continue working together to solve global challenges.

lol yeah I know Belarus????

Achieving 2030 Agenda will require overcoming rising ‘feeling of chaos,’ Belarus tells UN Assembly

“In other words, we are living in a time of contradictory realities,” Valentin Rybakov said, arguing that today’s turbulence has become a “serious competitor” with positive globalization processes due to several factors, including because the so-called winners of the Cold War did not want to integrate the “losers” into the system, instead attempting to impose their will upon them, with “terrible consequences.” And as a result, the world is in political transition without knowing where it is moving towards.
