US President Donald Trump returned to the United Nations on Tuesday, leveling broad, detailed critiques of the institution and lecturing its member states.
美国总统唐纳德·特朗普于上周二重返联合国,对该机构发表了广泛且详细的批评,并对成员国进行说教。
Speaking second after Brazil's President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, Trump "seized" the spotlight. Since Monday, multiple New York streets have been closed for his motorcade, reporters have been rotating through the press room to film and thousands have gathered outside the UN to protest, leading to numerous arrests.
在巴西总统卢拉·达席尔瓦之后第二个发言的特朗普“抢占”了焦点。自周一开始,纽约多条街道因他的车队被封锁,记者们在新闻室轮流拍摄,数千人聚集在联合国外抗议,导致多人被捕。
This is the first address of Trump's second term upon his return to the White House, and it lasted nearly an hour, quadrupling his allotted 15 minutes. The president criticized the UN for "not doing enough" as he recounted his foreign policy successes.

"What is the purpose of the United Nations?" Trump asked in the speech. "It's not even coming close to living up to that potential."
特朗普在演讲中问道:“联合国的宗旨是什么?它甚至远未发挥出应有的潜力。”
Since returning to office, he has rolled back UN funding, with $1 billion already cut, and more reductions expected in 2026.

Before Trump's presidency, he had been turned down in a bid to renovate the headquarters as a real estate developer.

The US president also argued the UN has failed to broker peace, saying it does little more than issue "strongly worded letters" and offer "empty words." He again touted himself for a Nobel Peace Prize.
这位美国总统还称联合国未能促成和平,认为它除了发布“措辞强硬的信件”和说些“空洞的话”外,几乎毫无作为。他还再次为自己争取诺贝尔和平奖。
"It's too bad that I had to do these things instead of the United Nations doing them," Trump said. "I ended seven wars, dealt with the leaders of each and every one of these countries, and never even received a phone call from the United Nations offering to help in finalizing the deal."
特朗普表示:“遗憾的是,这些事本该由联合国来做,却要我来完成。我结束了七场战争,与这些国家的每一位领导人都进行了沟通,但从未接到过联合国打来的电话,提出帮忙促成协议。”
However, amid the Gaza war, the US vetoed six Security Council cease-fire resolutions, saying hostages must be freed first, which Trump echoed in his speech.

"Some of this body is seeking to unilaterally recognize a Palestinian state. The rewards would be too great for Hamas terrorists for their atrocities," Trump said.
特朗普表示:“本机构中的一些成员正试图单方面承认巴勒斯坦国。这对于实施暴行的哈马斯恐怖分子来说,奖赏实在太大了。”
On Ukraine, Trump said he wants the war to end and warned that the US is prepared to impose "a very strong round of powerful tariffs" on Russia if Moscow refuses a peace deal. He also accused European allies, as well as India and China, of buying Russian oil that he said is fueling the war.
