Marco Rubio:

Trump really doesn’t think the world right now needs a “West Bank crisis,” and that’s our position.

Marco Rubio:

Look, the international system is not in good shape right now.

Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi’s contact with Trump envoy Steve Witkoff was unauthorized by Iran’s relevant policymaking bodies, including the Supreme National Security Council.

Marco Rubio:

We will never put the international order above the interests of the U.S.

Marco Rubio on Russia:

We’ve invited President Putin to the G20. We think it’s an opportunity for him to engage not just with Trump, but with other world leaders.

We hope that’s an invitation he will accept.

Tony Blair on Gaza:

There is talk of free Palestine, but for Palestinians living in Gaza, they don't need a slogan; they need a solution.

To be free, Gaza must live in peace with its neighbors and with itself.

And this cannot happen if it's governed by those who use Gaza as a base for war against a neighbor it has no chance of defeating.

Steve Witkoff on Gaza:

There is a ceasefire in Gaza, imperfect as it may be, but it still exists.

The Pentagon added another U.S. military death linked to the Iran war, bringing its publicly disclosed fatality total to 19.

The Army identified the latest casualty as Capt. Bianca C. Wilkerson, 37, who died on Sept. 18 from a non-combat medical emergency while supporting operations in Doha, Qatar.

However, U.S. officials say the actual number of military deaths in the region is higher, with at least 22–23 fatalities reported since the Iran conflict began, including some not reflected in the Pentagon’s public database.

Zohran Mamdani on Spain:

Eight years ago, when Prime Minister Sanchez took office, the Spanish minimum wage sat at €735 per month, or roughly $868.

Eight years and eight increases later, the Spanish minimum wage is now €1,221 per month, or roughly $1,400, a 61% increase.

Israel's Ambassador to the United Nations Danny Danon:

I think that the U.S. is a strong nation, but they have to take action to defend themselves.

Not to wait for 9/11. Not to wait for another disaster to come to the shores of the U.S.

Iran's conditions, announced by Foreign Ministry Spokesperson:

— End US aggressive actions including naval blockade.

— End economic terrorism (sanctions).

— Ceasefire on all fronts.

— Release of frozen/restricted Iranian assets.

— Accept safe shipping lanes as agreed between the two coastal states.

Ukraine's Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha:

Since March 2025, Ukraine has agreed to a full, immediate, and unconditional ceasefire.

We call on Russia to finally do the same as a necessary step towards meaningful diplomacy.

Ukraine wants peace. We want peace. Russia must stop its aggression, accept a ceasefire, and engage meaningfully in negotiations.

Romanian President Nicușor Dan on Iran:

In terms of Iran, our position is clear. Iran must not possess nuclear weapons.

Iran must respect the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, the safeguards of the International Atomic Energy Agency and restore full transparency of its nuclear program.

Jared Kushner on Gaza:

Over the last decades, there’s been so many meetings on Gaza here at the United Nations.

And what we tried to do today was do something a little bit different. We didn’t talk about who was to blame. Nobody was blaming anyone.

People were just focused on solutions, not slogans, not political speeches.

Jared Kushner on Gaza:

We want to have a Gaza Strip that could thrive and reach its full potential. In order for that to happen, it must be fully demilitarized.

Argentina's UN official:

The Malvinas Islands (Falkland Islands), South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands and the surrounding areas are part of the national territory of Argentina, illegally occupied by the United Kingdom.

The illegal occupation by Britain of the islands is from January of 1833, when British forces occupied the islands, expelling legitimate Argentinian authorities.

This was at a time of peace and in violation of international law.

Argentina reiterates its full readiness to resume bilateral negotiations, substantive ones, with the United Kingdom.

Tony Blair on Gaza:

This new government cannot govern unless that infrastructure is systematically destroyed.

Hamas have agreed in principle that it should be, and that was a landmark agreement.

But our most urgent challenge now is to turn this agreement into a credible stage-by-stage plan, as we are doing.

Argentina's President Javier Milei:

We made a geopolitical choice. We aligned ourselves without ambiguity with the West.

We did so with the United States and Israel, countries with which we share a deep affinity of values and a strategic complementarity.

That is why we reject the attacks by the Iranian regime against the State of Israel.
