vulnerable to exn and rt intimidation. that is why congratulate european states such as poland for leading construction of so nations not are on dependent on russia of expansionist foreign powers. it's been the formal policy of our country since president monroe, that we reject the interference of foreign nations, in this hemispre and in our own affairs. awe united states has recently

strengthened our to better screen foreign investments in our country for national security threa. and we countries in this region, and arno around the world that issue to do the same. you need to do it for your own protection. the united states is working with partners in latin america, to conol threats from uncontrolled migration tolerance for human struggling and human afficking is not humane. it's a horrible thing that's ev going on, ats that nobody has er seen before. it's very, very cruel. illegal immigration funds

criminal networks, ruthless gangs and the flow of deadly drugs. illegal immigrations hurts hard-working citizs. and has produced a vicious takele of crime, violence and poverty. only by upholding national er bo destroying criminal gangs, can we break this cycle and establish a real foundation for prosperity.og we rze the right of every nation in this room, to set its own immigration policy, in accordance with its national interests, just as we ask other countries to respect our own right to do the same, which we are doing. that's one reason the united states won't partipate on

global migration. migration should not be accountable to a governing body. the ultimate solution to the migration crisis is to help e people build mlpful futures in their home countries. make their countries great again. g currently, we're witness human tragedy as an example in venezuela. moe than 2 million people h fled the maduro regime and its sponsors. not long ago, it was one of the richest untries on earth. now, socialism has bankrupt the oil-rich nation and has driven

its people into abject poverty. virtually everywhere socialism or communism has been tried, ce it's prodecay. socialism's thir for power, leads to oppression. all nations in the world should resist socialism and the mery that it brings to everyone. in that spirit, we ask the nations gathered here calling focythe restoration of democ in venezuela. today, we're announcing additional sanctions against the repressive regime, targeting maduro's inner cadcle and close sers. we're grateful for all of the work the united nations does ld around the wto help people build better lives for themselves and their families.

the united states is the world's largest giver, in the world, by far, of foreign aid.th 's why we are taking a hard look at u.s. foreign assistance. that will be headed up by secretary of state mike pompeo. we will examine what is working, what is not working and whether the countries who receive our dollars and our protection, also have our interests at heart. moving forward, we're only going to give foreign aid to those who respect us and, frankly, are our friends. and we expecother countries to pay their fair share for the

costf their defense. the united states is committed to making the united nations more effective and accountable. i have said many times, that the united nations has unlimited potential. as part of our reform effort, i have told our negotiators that the united states would not pay more than 25% of the u.n. peacekeeping budget. this wilencourage other countries to step up, get involved and also share in this very large burden. we are working to shift more of our fundom assessed contributions to voluntary, so we can target the programs with the best record of success. only when each of us does our part and contributes our share,

can we realize the u.n.'s highest aspirations. we must pursue peace without fear, hope without despair and security without apology. looking around this hall, where history has transpired, we think of those who have come here to d ess the challenges of their nations and their times. and our thoughts turn to the same question that ran through all of the speeches and resolutions, through every word and every hope it's the question of what kind of world will leave for our ildren? and what kind of nations they will inherit. the dreams that fill this hall

today are as diverse as the people who have stood at this podium. and as varied as the countryd i represenght here in this body are. it really is great, great history. it's india, a free society over 1 billion people, successfully lifting millions out of poverty and into the middle class.sa there'i arabia, where king soloman and the crown prince are pursuing new reforms. there's israel who is ercelebrating its 70th annry as a democracy in the holy land. in poland, a great people e standing up for their nd indece, their security and their sovereignty.

many countries are pursuing their own unique visions, building hopeful futures and chasing the wonderfudreams of be destiny, of legacy aa home. the whole rld is richer. humanity is better. pause of the constellations of nations, each very special, each unique, and each shining brightly in its part of the world. in each one, we sees awesome promise of a people bound together by a shared past and working towards a common future. as for americans, we know what kind of future we want for ourselves. we know what kind of a nation

america must always dignity the individual. we believe in self-government and the rule of law. .nd we pride the culture that sustains our liber a culture built on strong families, deep faith and fierce independence. we pressure our traditions. and above all, we love our country.in inside everyonhis chamber today, and everyone liening around the globe, there's the het of a patriot that feel the same love for your nation, the same intense loyalty to your homeland. the passion in a burns in the hearts of patriots and the souls of nations, has inspired reform

and revolution, sacrifice and selflessness, scientific breakthroughs and magnificent rks of art. our task is not to erase it, but to embrace it. to build with it and draw on its ancient wisdom and to find within it the will to make our nation's greater, our regions safer. and the world better. to unleash this incredible potential in our people, we must defend the foundations that make it all possible. sovereign and independent nations is where peace h prospe

prospered and so, we must protect our sovereignty and our cherished independence above all. when we do, we will find new op avenues for ation unfolding before us. we will find new passion for peacemaking, rising within us. we will find new purpose, new resolve, and new spirit flourishing all around us. and making this a very difficult world in which to live. so, together, let's choose prosperity andride. let's choose peace and freedom over domination and defeat. and let us come here to this place, to stand for our people h

anr nations. forever strong, forever sovereign, and fever justice. and thankful for the goodness and the glory of god. thank you, god bless you and god bless the nations of the world. thank you very much. thank you.
