No One is Waiting for Netanyahu in New York
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived in New York for the UN General Assembly with an empty agenda, a stark contrast to previous years where he held numerous meetings with world leaders. Many attendees view him as a war criminal and see Israel as a threat to Middle Eastern stability due to actions in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, and the West Bank. His speech focused on domestic audiences ahead of Israeli elections, claiming Hamas disarmament and hostage releases. He was notably avoided by US President Donald Trump, who refused to meet with him before or after the address.
