UK Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband:

A year on from recognising the State of Palestine, we will continue to stand up for what is right.

Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud:

In countries like mine, where the United Nations has maintained a sustained presence for more than three decades, operations can become more effective by aligning more closely with our national priorities and using credible national systems.

The majority of United Nations assistance continues to be delivered through parallel structures, fragmented projects and off-budget arrangements in Somalia.

This makes it difficult for the government to plan, coordinate resources, measure results and build institutions required for long-term stability.

Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud:

The basic argument of past UN agencies’ development thinking that countries like Somalia lack capacity must be condemned and permanently consigned to the dustbin of history. It is where it belongs.

We now have capable people, institutions and policies that are proudly guiding our national transformation agenda.

Trump on Xi:

Xi is an expert on stone, and he loves good granite.

The Trump administration is quietly holding talks with China over its rapidly expanding nuclear arsenal and U.S. allegations that Beijing has conducted secret low-yield nuclear tests, which China denies.

The discussions focus on reducing nuclear risks and improving verification rather than negotiating a formal arms-control deal.

Washington is also pressing Beijing for more advance notice of missile tests and greater transparency about its nuclear forces.

China has more than 600 nuclear weapons and could exceed 1,000 by 2030, according to the Pentagon.

Italian PM Meloni:

Today we can say that Italy is no longer Europe’s refugee camp, and I say this, because it is a result of which I am sincerely proud.

Italian PM Meloni:

They told us our ideas on combating illegal immigration were heretical and contrary to European legal civilization.

I am proud that today those ideas are European legal civilization, given that they are European Union rules.

We are Italy, and with awareness of our strength and some common sense, we can set the direction instead of simply following others.

WATCH: Netanyahu is booed as he begins his UNGA speech, with many delegations walking out of the General Assembly hall.

Many delegations are leaving the UN General Assembly hall as Netanyahu prepares to begin his UNGA speech.

Netanyahu:

Before I begin, just a quick announcement: if there are any other moral cowards who haven't yet left this hall, please do so now!

Netanyahu:

Fourteen years ago, I stood on this podium and I drew a red line. I vowed to prevent Iran's murderous dictatorship from developing atomic bombs — nuclear weapons aimed at destroying Israel, nuclear weapons that could threaten the entire world.

That's exactly what we did.

That was very hard.

Netanyahu:

Devastating Iran's nuclear facilities was hard. It was very hard to do.

But for me, it was one of the easiest decisions I've ever had to make as prime minister, because if we hadn't done it, we'd all be dead!

Netanyahu to Syria:

Mr. al-Sharaa, you should know the Jews have been on the Golan Heights since the days of Moses.

You can read it in the Bible.

Netanyahu:

Now, you want to hear the ultimate irony?

Israel is also defending many of the countries whose delegates just left this hall.

In fact, I want you to know that many of their leaders even thank us privately for taking out Iran's nukes.
