President Donald Trump addressed the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, focusing on migration policies and climate change, while expressing skepticism about the UN's effectiveness.
Trump criticized European nations for their migration policies, stating, "If you don't stop people that you've never seen before, that you have nothing in common with, your country is going to fail."
On climate change, he dismissed concerns, calling it "the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world."
