“I was too busy working to save millions of lives, that is the saving and stopping these [seven] wars. But later, I realized that the United Nations wasn't there for us. They weren't there. I thought of it really after the fact, not during these negotiations, which were not easy. That being the case, what is the purpose of the United Nations?” Trump said in his address to the United Nations General Assembly.
Trump further stated that, despite its significant potential to resolve global conflicts, the United Nations is falling far short of fulfilling that promise.
"I do not mind making this speech without a teleprompter, because the teleprompter is not working. I feel very happy to be up here with you nevertheless, and that way you speak more from the heart. I can only say that whoever is operating this teleprompter is in big trouble," Trump said.
The president then went on to reiterate his claim that the US has become the "hottest country" in the world under his second administration.

"It's too bad that I had to do these things instead of the United Nations doing them, and sadly, in all cases, the United Nations did not even try to help in any of them," Trump said.

Trump also said he’s working relentlessly to end Ukraine conflict The US president highlighted his ongoing efforts to stop the war in Ukraine and boasted of having “good relations” with Vladimir Putin.
