we all must defend the rights of l g, b, t, q i, individuals. so they can live and love ultimately without fear. whether it's chechnya or cameroon, or anywhere. as we see our steer, our nation is toward this inflection point and work to meet today's fast moving cross cutting challenges. let me be clear, i'm not agnostic about the future we want for the world. the future will belong to those who embrace human dignity, not travel in the future of belong to those one leads to potential other people, not those who stifle it. the future belong to those who give their people the ability to breathe free. not those who seek to suffocate their people. with an iron hand authoritarianism, they authoritarianism the world may seek to proclaim the end of the age of
5:31 pm
democracy. but they're wrong. the truth is that the democratic world is everywhere. limited in and corruption activists, human rights defenders. the journalist, the peace protestors on the front lines of the struggle and bella roost, burma syria cube then as well. and everywhere in between, it led in the break women, a sudan who stood violence and oppression. to push a genocidal dictator from power and to keep working every day to defend their democratic progress. it lives in the problem while dover ends up deliver a landslide victory for the forces of democracy for the mandate to fight graft. to build a more inclusive economy, lead in the young people are zambia, harness the power of their vote for the 1st time, turning out a record numbers to denounce corruption and chart a new path for their country. while no democracy is perfect,
5:32 pm
including the united states, will continue to struggle to live up to the highest ideals, to heal our divisions. and we face down violence and insurrection. democracy raised the best tool we have on leash, our full human potential. my fellow leaders. this is a marvel or most prove ourselves the equals of those who come before us who have the vision and values and determined faith in our collective future built . our united nations broke the cycle of war and destruction and lay the foundations for more than 7 decades. of relative peace and growing global prosperity. now, we must again come together to affirm inherent humanity. the unites us in much greater than a our divisions or disagreements must choose to do more than we think we can do alone
5:33 pm
. so that we accomplish what we must together end in this pandemic and making sure we're better prepared for the next one. staving off climactic climate change and increasing our resilience to the impacts we already are seeing. ensuring a future where technologies are vital, told, or solving human challenges, and empowering human potential, not a source of greater strife and repression. this is a challenge that we will determine what the world looks like for our children, our grandchildren, and what they'll inherit. we can only meet them by looking to the future. i stand here to day for the 1st time and 20 years united states not at war. we've turn the page all the unmatched trans energy and commitment. well and resources of our nation are now fully and squarely focused on what's ahead of us. not what was
5:34 pm
behind. i know this. as we look ahead, we will lead we will lead on all the greatest challenges of our time from coven declined, that patient security. human dignity in human rights, but we will not go alone. will lead together with our allies and partners and cooperation of all those who believe as we do that this is within our power to meet these challenges. to build a future list all our people and preserves this planet. but none of this is inevitable. it's a choice. i can tell you where america stays, where we'll choose to build a better future way. you and i, we have the will and capacity to make it better. ladies in general, we cannot afford to waste any more time. let's get to work. let's make our better
5:35 pm
future now. we can do this. it's within our power and capacity. thank you. god bless you all. yes, everybody listen to joe by the making his person as president of the united states to the united nations general assembly. let's go to our diplomatic editor james base who's been listening to that outside of the united nations. james, that speech went down for about 33 minutes and the general feeling, and i'm sure you'll have specifics that i got was that it was about looking to the future. and it was about global cooperation. but he covered an awful lot of topics . not some of them in any great detail. no, absolutely, but that is the, the nature of these sorta speeches. they are his view on the world that he gives once a year to the other 193 nations,
5:36 pm
making it quite clear that he thought this was an important moment. a moment of inflection. he said, he said after the great pain of cobra, 194500000 people killed. that was now an exciting opportunity. we certainly heard that there were going to be new commitment from the u. s. in terms of cobra, 1900 vaccines. those are going to be announced in a summit. coby summit, 20 taken based in 24 hours on climate, clearly new commitments also on climate financing. coming from the united states. he said he's going to double in terms of climate financing. what he already doubled back in april. we've been going through the figures trying to work out what that makes is adeline figure. and so far, i'm afraid we haven't managed to get the bottom of it because none of the documentation is particularly clear on that. and the other figure was noting was a commitment of $10000000000.00 to end hunger. he said, so another fresh commitment from the us president. but i think the headlines of the
5:37 pm
speech are going to be about his decision on use of force clearly and the aftermath of afghanistan. he now says the biden doctrine perhaps, is that the use of full force will be a tool of last resort to be something that will be done with the will of the american people. and where possible with the conjunction of the u. s. s. allies. he said he stood before the countries of the world here and the whole of the general assembly for the 1st time in 20 years as an american president whose country was not at war. he says that they will stand close with their allies. they don't talk about. busy the, the, the, the nato alliance, what you described as this, as the sacred nato, a launch the article, 5 of the nato allies, all allies stand together, no reference. of course, the one they toe ally from that feels very grieved at the moment that allies,
5:38 pm
that they say should share things and should talk about things. and yet very secretly, the u. s. did a deal with australia and the u. k. cutting out france which had to deal with australia to come up with new submarines. and now the threatens to taking those submarines from the u. s. and the u. k. new nuclear power submarines. they of course, are aimed at patrolling the pacific because of the threats of china, but he made it quite clear that we are not looking for a new cold war. he said they did not want a country divided and they made it clear they were prepared to work with any nation in a peaceful manner. that's important because he got referred to north korea. he said he wanted to complete the nuclear is ation of the korean peninsula. and of course, to iran, whether it is iran talks continue in vienna. some the criticize the by the administration is going a little bit late to that, to starting that diplomacy
5:39 pm
a little late. and certainly that diplomacy is dragging on and no sign of any progress. and all that was telling you that was supposed to be a meeting of the other members of the iraq nuclear deal. of course the us not currently part of the deal and i'm told that will not now take place in new york. no meeting between the p 4 plus one and iran, here in new york mentioned from the us president, many times of human dignity and working together a speech i think. and to show you the world that america is embracing the whole idea of the un multilateralism and working together. but make it clear that if there were threats, what he describes is terrorism threat than the u. s. now has much more knowledge that didn't 2001 and can deal with them very quickly. james, thanks very much. obviously as we get more speakers coming up at the u. n. g, a, we are going to be coming back to you, but for now, thank you very much. indeed. i want to talk to my one of the shara, he's all just said a senior political analyst. he's joining us from london. one, how do you think countries who might have hoped that the us would support them in
5:40 pm
any internal struggle is by moving troops and might react to this news? now, as far as the by the ministration is concerned, that military power is not going to be a tool of 1st resort, but until of last resort. what of course, i'm skeptical. i mean, you know, i take every word that precedent by the said with a grain of salt or many, many grains of salt. if you just look back at the speech that his boss, his former boss, president obama gave in his 1st speech to the united nation 2009. you would see astonishing parallels between what by then just said, and what obama said back in 2009 obama came after bush and biting came off the trunk. and both of them had made so many promises about rejoining the world institutions about nuclear nonproliferation, about dignity and human rights and palestine and so on,
5:41 pm
so forth. but what we've seen from o bama including closing $110.00 mall and so on. so for that, almost none of his promise is back in 2009 came through on the big issues that illustrated back in 2009. and i think we're seeing more of the same from, by then by the talks about democracy, freedom on human rights. while he, as vice president, was the most supportive of the crackdown in egypt and out of spring nations. he was supportive of presidency when presidency was tracking down back then in 2013. so all in all, what we've seen is present by them promises to be the world fire fighter . and why does the world need fire fighter? why? because what we've heard from such a good turn, the world is on fire and present by then give the response that america will step up, along with other nations to be the was firefighters. unfortunately,
5:42 pm
listening to him and to his, for the sensors over the, over the last few years, i am really a skeptical that like obama, he will not fill up, fill in or fulfill his promises. i mean, you know, remains to be seen, but i, spectacles. let's talk about the middle east and north africa and the parts of the southern hemisphere. he was talking about the us wanted greater security for all parts of the middle east. he said that he was committed to a state to state solutions that it was the best solution for the jury states and also for the palestinians is everything new. and so we just reaffirming a situation that he's in it before the aid, any, anything a toll that any of those countries in that region can take from this that might be positive and advance nothing. nothing at all. nothing. president obama told us in 2009 that he just met nathan on our bus and
5:43 pm
that he is going to be working for peace for 11, for, for, for 8 years, which is nothing. and for the following 40 years, we're seeing orders from president trump present a president by then just met the right, a prime minister, bennett. and he said nothing to him about the need for him to sit down with the spins. in fact, you give him green light to continue with the illegal supplements and us bank. so in fact, what we're seeing from president biden is more and more words like we've seen for bias. obama, what it comes to really for defending some of those promises really walking the walk in palestine in egypt and part of them, at least we haven't seen the coming. but what tell you what astonishes me most because you know, we, including james, we've been listening to the species for the past 15 years, at least since english came to existence. right. it just, it just fascinates me how they say something and it just means exactly the opposite . they are building arms and se, asia for the purpose of peace and stability. they are really now in the process.
5:44 pm
china and the united states are building up arms that they, human history are never seen like them before. we've seen, we are seeing nuclear proliferation in the korean peninsula, not nuclear nonproliferation. we're seeing and rebuilding it's nuclear reactors, not on building nuclear reactors. so we're seeing arguments we're seeing on brace and we're seeing now just to deal with a study on britain about rebuilding of submarines, nuclear engineer, submarines, and so on, so forth. but we, they keep saying that it is in the name of peace that it is at the service of peace . we see the president of our present bite and says, no more war. but we know that the united states is pursuing the war unfettered under the war, and 3rd is pursuing the most incredible advanced. what does sophisticated weapons like drones is like special operations and also for the people still die around the world, including just what you're not to fit some for a field about that killing and against recently by drawing by miss files and so on,
5:45 pm
so forth. so i urge our viewers to be quite skeptical. it's really encouraging to hear 1st by then say all that i think he didn't get a lot of shoes for. in fact, if i, if i remember correctly just was the last half an hour. i didn't see a single clap going on except until the end, but at least he didn't get the jeers and the ridicule that his predecessor, president trump got in his 1st speech to the united nations. back in 2017, at least he got that. they had some chairs, and yet i would say, even though spin, listening them at the united nations when he talk about to start solution in israel palestine, you can, you can tell that everyone was looking at him saying what you're kidding us, just making these promises that you're not fish, never fulfilled for the last 2 decades, mom and let's widen this because of course, it's not just about the united states, in your opinion, looking at that meeting as it goes forward. who should we be looking at?
5:46 pm
what are the key speakers that you think we should be paying attention to? oh, absolutely. you're right, 100 percent. and we're just my comments because we just heard president obama has a bite and i'm sorry, but present. she is going to be key, but it's been put to is going to be richie and yes, maybe the foreign minister of france is going to be. we're going to be listening to a good number of important speeches as well as speech is like say for example, that tunisia and president are the gypsy president to see the move there. and then at least about the move towards change or not change. but clearly, i think the biggest question of all facing the world today is what relationship with china and the united states. and while president biden says, there is no cold war, everyone is feeling the cold war. he think of, isaac, where between china and the united states. and i think the 3 important questions that the 3 c issues climate, corporate and conflict. without the big c corporation between china and the united
5:47 pm
states. we're going to see our secretary good tourists, warned us that this is a world on fire and it will continue to rage. and we, and our children on the guns for them are not going to have it's well in the future . if china and the united states as well as others in europe and elsewhere, co operate on the important questions of dependent x on the, on the questions of global warming, climate change on the questions of conflict. and on the question of this article meant including nuclear disarmament around the world. one is always good to get your thoughts on this. we will of course, be coming back to you as we get more speakers coming up in the u. n. g a. but for now, thank you very much. indeed. sedans governing sovereign council says it's foiled to attempt. it says 21 officers and a number of soldiers have been arrested and are being questioned. you tried to take control of several government institutions, including the state t, v, and radio army units are now set to be guarding those facilities as well as the
