恐怕没有多少人愿意看联合国代表大会领导人的演说，因为几十年都差不多，无论谁发言，面对全世界，最后都会千篇一律，偶尔出现的异常，也是波澜不惊。但是今年不一样，美国出了一个川普。
2017年9月19日，川普在联大首次发表演说，虽然没有石破天惊的内容，至少可以说十分罕见：
他说了自己想说的话，而不是联合国想让他说的话。
有消息称讲演稿是Stephen Miller起草的，他是白宫硕果仅存的几个国家主义者之一。这份稿件居然通过了凯利将军和其他重要幕僚，本身的意义已经非同一般。因为整场演说，和他的竞选理念无异！
这仿佛不是今天，更像去年的9月19号。
他虽然面对的是各国领导人，但是他内心可能更希望美国的民众听到他的声音。
众所周知，川普虽然赢了大选，执政之路并不平坦。他在政坛没有根基，在民主党逢川必反，而共和党内部也存在严重分歧的情况下，他的理念有时候只是梦想 – 没有一个选民真的认为他能兑现所有承诺。但是他在努力，短短八个月也取得了相当的成就：保守派大法官上任（这是很多选民的第一要点），失业率16年最低，股市暴涨，ISIS面临崩溃，打击犯罪，限制难民，还取消了奥巴马的男女同厕。虽然在非法移民方面进展缓慢，但是如果现在是希拉里，选民就不是在讨论庇护州，而是庇护国的问题了。
但是，他的几项重大方针面临挑战：医保，建墙，减税。更重要的是，他开始在DACA方面出现松动。而大赦非移，哪怕只是一部分，哪怕只是作为筹码，也会触及保守派选民的底线。
或许川普感受到了来自基本盘的压力，或许他真的想在世界舞台上推行自己的主张，无论什么原因，这场演讲体现了他一贯坚持的理念，而且毫无掩饰，全盘呈现在各国领导人面前。
1. 美国第一，人民第一
川普的美国第一是他的竞选口号，而今天，他明确告诉各国领导人，你们也应该把本国人民的利益放在第一位。
“作为美国的总统，我将永远把美国利益放在第一位，就像在座的各位一样，你们也会，而且应当，把你们的国家放在首位。所有负责的领袖都有责任照顾好自己的国民。改善人民生活质量的最佳途径，仍然是通过自己的国家。”
“美国宪法最伟大之处是开头的三个字：We the people （我们人民）。”
“世世代代的美国人呕心沥血，就是为了维护这三个字的承诺，我们国家的承诺，和我们辉煌的历史。 在美国，the people 治国，the people 统治，the people 拥有主权。 我当选不是夺取权力，而是把权力还给美国人民。”
“在外交方面，我们正在恢复主权的基本原则。 我们政府的首要责任是美国公民 – 满足他们的需要，确保他们的安全，维护他们的权利，维持他们的价值观。”
2. 国家当自强，美国也不应输出理念
几十年来，美国向世界各地灌输自己的理念，结果却是制造混乱，甚至颠覆政权。川普向来反对输出理念的做法，在大选期间就曾多次强调。有人甚至以此攻击他，说他没有信仰，墙头草。
他坚信每个国家独立主权的重要性，他认为每个国家自己建设好，才是全球繁荣的基石。今天的演讲，川普花了大量篇幅推行这一主张，主权这个词出现了将近20次。
在美国，总统的权力受各方牵制，他能否推行有待观望，但是这确实是他的思想。
“我们不期望各个国家拥有一样的文化，传统，甚至体制。但是我们希望所有国家能坚持两条原则：尊重本国人民的意愿，尊重别国的主权。这是联合国的美好愿望，也是合作和成功的基石。”
“一个个强大的主权国家才能让不同的价值观，文化和梦想不仅共存，而且在相互尊重的基础上共同发展。”
“美国不想把自己的生活方式强加给任何人，我们宁愿做一个模范，让世界人民观察。本周我们恰好有机会骄傲地展示这样一个范例：我们正在庆祝宪法230周年 – 当今世界上最古老的宪法。” 【大骂美国，甚至痛恨美国的人，只要有机会也想来美国，这恰恰证明美国有独到之处，宪法就是其中之一。】
“但是，让美国人民过上更好的生活也要求我们必须与世界人民协调一致，一起为全人类创造一个更安全，更和平的未来。”
“美国永远会是世界的好朋友，特别是我们的盟友。但是我们也不想继续被利用，也不想再签署单方面获益的协议，让美国得不到任何回报。只要我还是总统，我会永远捍卫美国的利益。”
“但是，在履行对本国人民的义务的同时，我们也意识到，让所有国家都可以拥有主权，繁荣和安定，符合所有人的利益。”
3. 北韩和伊朗
川普当然会提到北韩，洲际导弹，以及核弹试验。他的语气更加强硬，直接说Kim3威胁美国是在自寻死路。而且，他用了自己这两天刚给Kim3起的外号：”火箭人”。这点出人意料，在推特上这么说是一回事，在联合国大会有点不合常规，但是川普就是川普，一向口无遮拦，估计大家也见怪不怪了。
川普没有提名，但是影射某些国家跟北韩进行贸易，显然是在暗指中国。另外他特别感谢了中国和俄罗斯在最近两次制裁中投赞成票。
朝鲜驻联合国大使在川普发言之前离开了会场。
川普还直接提到伊朗，认为伊朗是下一个潜在的重大威胁。他说伊朗把一个具有丰富历史和文化的富裕国家变成了贫穷，腐败，独裁，主要”出口”产品成了暴力和流血冲突，最大的受害者是伊朗人民。他说伊朗人民最终会做出选择，是继续选择流血和恐怖，还是重返昌盛与富强。
4. 恐怖主义
在刚刚过去的911纪念日，川普和他的内阁成员在演说中没有一次使用”极端伊斯兰”这个词，这让支持者非常失望，认为他在反恐方面也屈服于民主党的压力，开始政治正确（奥巴马8年坚决不说”极端伊斯兰”）。
但是今天在联合国，他用了两次。
关于中东难民，他说美国每接受一个难民的费用可以在周边地区帮助10个。他说美国给当地接受难民的国家提供经济援助，而且支持G20最近达成的协议，尽量就近安置难民。
欧盟的难民危机，造成的文化冲突和治安问题比比皆是，长期下去也是一个火药桶。那么在战乱国的周边地区就近安置难民，文化相通，也不用远涉重洋，战后也可以尽早返回家园，西方国家提供经济援助和武力保护，越来越得到各个政府的支持。
5. 联合国必须改革
川普从来没有隐瞒对联合国的不满，今天再次强调，联合国必须改革，特别是官僚和扯皮作风。他说美国的负担过重，承担了联合国22%的经费，但是，如果联合国真的达到自己制定的目标，这项投资倒也值得，只是现在相差甚远。
川普曾经威胁要砍掉UN经费，直到改革成功，但是现在美国的做法是继续付款，同时强烈要求改革。

Remarks by President Trump to the 72nd Session of the United Nations General Assembly
United Nations
New York, New York
10:04 A.M. EDT
PRESIDENT TRUMP: Mr. Secretary General, Mr. President, world leaders, and distinguished delegates: Welcome to New York. It is a profound honor to stand here in my home city, as a representative of the American people, to address the people of the world.
As millions of our citizens continue to suffer the effects of the devastating hurricanes that have struck our country, I want to begin by expressing my appreciation to every leader in this room who has offered assistance and aid. The American people are strong and resilient, and they will emerge from these hardships more determined than ever before.
Fortunately, the United States has done very well since Election Day last November 8th. The stock market is at an all-time high — a record. Unemployment is at its lowest level in 16 years, and because of our regulatory and other reforms, we have more people working in the United States today than ever before. Companies are moving back, creating job growth the likes of which our country has not seen in a very long time. And it has just been announced that we will be spending almost $700 billion on our military and defense.
Our military will soon be the strongest it has ever been. For more than 70 years, in times of war and peace, the leaders of nations, movements, and religions have stood before this assembly. Like them, I intend to address some of the very serious threats before us today but also the enormous potential waiting to be unleashed.
We live in a time of extraordinary opportunity. Breakthroughs in science, technology, and medicine are curing illnesses and solving problems that prior generations thought impossible to solve.
But each day also brings news of growing dangers that threaten everything we cherish and value. Terrorists and extremists have gathered strength and spread to every region of the planet. Rogue regimes represented in this body not only support terrorists but threaten other nations and their own people with the most destructive weapons known to humanity.
Authority and authoritarian powers seek to collapse the values, the systems, and alliances that prevented conflict and tilted the world toward freedom since World War II.
International criminal networks traffic drugs, weapons, people; force dislocation and mass migration; threaten our borders; and new forms of aggression exploit technology to menace our citizens.
To put it simply, we meet at a time of both of immense promise and great peril. It is entirely up to us whether we lift the world to new heights, or let it fall into a valley of disrepair.
We have it in our power, should we so choose, to lift millions from poverty, to help our citizens realize their dreams, and to ensure that new generations of children are raised free from violence, hatred, and fear.
This institution was founded in the aftermath of two world wars to help shape this better future. It was based on the vision that diverse nations could cooperate to protect their sovereignty, preserve their security, and promote their prosperity.
It was in the same period, exactly 70 years ago, that the United States developed the Marshall Plan to help restore Europe. Those three beautiful pillars — they’re pillars of peace, sovereignty, security, and prosperity.
The Marshall Plan was built on the noble idea that the whole world is safer when nations are strong, independent, and free. As President Truman said in his message to Congress at that time, “Our support of European recovery is in full accord with our support of the United Nations. The success of the United Nations depends upon the independent strength of its members.”
To overcome the perils of the present and to achieve the promise of the future, we must begin with the wisdom of the past. Our success depends on a coalition of strong and independent nations that embrace their sovereignty to promote security, prosperity, and peace for themselves and for the world.
We do not expect diverse countries to share the same cultures, traditions, or even systems of government. But we do expect all nations to uphold these two core sovereign duties: to respect the interests of their own people and the rights of every other sovereign nation. This is the beautiful vision of this institution, and this is foundation for cooperation and success.
Strong, sovereign nations let diverse countries with different values, different cultures, and different dreams not just coexist, but work side by side on the basis of mutual respect.
Strong, sovereign nations let their people take ownership of the future and control their own destiny. And strong, sovereign nations allow individuals to flourish in the fullness of the life intended by God.
In America, we do not seek to impose our way of life on anyone, but rather to let it shine as an example for everyone to watch. This week gives our country a special reason to take pride in that example. We are celebrating the 230th anniversary of our beloved Constitution — the oldest constitution still in use in the world today.
This timeless document has been the foundation of peace, prosperity, and freedom for the Americans and for countless millions around the globe whose own countries have found inspiration in its respect for human nature, human dignity, and the rule of law.
The greatest in the United States Constitution is its first three beautiful words. They are: “We the people.”
Generations of Americans have sacrificed to maintain the promise of those words, the promise of our country, and of our great history. In America, the people govern, the people rule, and the people are sovereign. I was elected not to take power, but to give power to the American people, where it belongs.
In foreign affairs, we are renewing this founding principle of sovereignty. Our government’s first duty is to its people, to our citizens — to serve their needs, to ensure their safety, to preserve their rights, and to defend their values.
As President of the United States, I will always put America first, just like you, as the leaders of your countries will always, and should always, put your countries first. (Applause.)
All responsible leaders have an obligation to serve their own citizens, and the nation-state remains the best vehicle for elevating the human condition.
But making a better life for our people also requires us to work together in close harmony and unity to create a more safe and peaceful future for all people.
The United States will forever be a great friend to the world, and especially to its allies. But we can no longer be taken advantage of, or enter into a one-sided deal where the United States gets nothing in return. As long as I hold this office, I will defend America’s interests above all else.
But in fulfilling our obligations to our own nations, we also realize that it’s in everyone’s interest to seek a future where all nations can be sovereign, prosperous, and secure.
America does more than speak for the values expressed in the United Nations Charter. Our citizens have paid the ultimate price to defend our freedom and the freedom of many nations represented in this great hall. America’s devotion is measured on the battlefields where our young men and women have fought and sacrificed alongside of our allies, from the beaches of Europe to the deserts of the Middle East to the jungles of Asia.
It is an eternal credit to the American character that even after we and our allies emerged victorious from the bloodiest war in history, we did not seek territorial expansion, or attempt to oppose and impose our way of life on others. Instead, we helped build institutions such as this one to defend the sovereignty, security, and prosperity for all.
For the diverse nations of the world, this is our hope. We want harmony and friendship, not conflict and strife. We are guided by outcomes, not ideology. We have a policy of principled realism, rooted in shared goals, interests, and values.
That realism forces us to confront a question facing every leader and nation in this room. It is a question we cannot escape or avoid. We will slide down the path of complacency, numb to the challenges, threats, and even wars that we face. Or do we have enough strength and pride to confront those dangers today, so that our citizens can enjoy peace and prosperity tomorrow?
If we desire to lift up our citizens, if we aspire to the approval of history, then we must fulfill our sovereign duties to the people we faithfully represent. We must protect our nations, their interests, and their futures. We must reject threats to sovereignty, from the Ukraine to the South China Sea. We must uphold respect for law, respect for borders, and respect for culture, and the peaceful engagement these allow. And just as the founders of this body intended, we must work together and confront together those who threaten us with chaos, turmoil, and terror.
The scourge of our planet today is a small group of rogue regimes that violate every principle on which the United Nations is based. They respect neither their own citizens nor the sovereign rights of their countries.
If the righteous many do not confront the wicked few, then evil will triumph. When decent people and nations become bystanders to history, the forces of destruction only gather power and strength.
No one has shown more contempt for other nations and for the wellbeing of their own people than the depraved regime in North Korea. It is responsible for the starvation deaths of millions of North Koreans, and for the imprisonment, torture, killing, and oppression of countless more.
We were all witness to the regime’s deadly abuse when an innocent American college student, Otto Warmbier, was returned to America only to die a few days later. We saw it in the assassination of the dictator’s brother using banned nerve agents in an international airport. We know it kidnapped a sweet 13-year-old Japanese girl from a beach in her own country to enslave her as a language tutor for North Korea’s spies.
If this is not twisted enough, now North Korea’s reckless pursuit of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles threatens the entire world with unthinkable loss of human life.
It is an outrage that some nations would not only trade with such a regime, but would arm, supply, and financially support a country that imperils the world with nuclear conflict. No nation on earth has an interest in seeing this band of criminals arm itself with nuclear weapons and missiles.
The United States has great strength and patience, but if it is forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea. Rocket Man is on a suicide mission for himself and for his regime. The United States is ready, willing and able, but hopefully this will not be necessary. That’s what the United Nations is all about; that’s what the United Nations is for. Let’s see how they do.
It is time for North Korea to realize that the denuclearization is its only acceptable future. The United Nations Security Council recently held two unanimous 15-0 votes adopting hard-hitting resolutions against North Korea, and I want to thank China and Russia for joining the vote to impose sanctions, along with all of the other members of the Security Council. Thank you to all involved.
But we must do much more. It is time for all nations to work together to isolate the Kim regime until it ceases its hostile behavior.
We face this decision not only in North Korea. It is far past time for the nations of the world to confront another reckless regime — one that speaks openly of mass murder, vowing death to America, destruction to Israel, and ruin for many leaders and nations in this room.
The Iranian government masks a corrupt dictatorship behind the false guise of a democracy. It has turned a wealthy country with a rich history and culture into an economically depleted rogue state whose chief exports are violence, bloodshed, and chaos. The longest-suffering victims of Iran’s leaders are, in fact, its own people.
Rather than use its resources to improve Iranian lives, its oil profits go to fund Hezbollah and other terrorists that kill innocent Muslims and attack their peaceful Arab and Israeli neighbors. This wealth, which rightly belongs to Iran’s people, also goes to shore up Bashar al-Assad’s dictatorship, fuel Yemen’s civil war, and undermine peace throughout the entire Middle East.
We cannot let a murderous regime continue these destabilizing activities while building dangerous missiles, and we cannot abide by an agreement if it provides cover for the eventual construction of a nuclear program. (Applause.) The Iran Deal was one of the worst and most one-sided transactions the United States has ever entered into. Frankly, that deal is an embarrassment to the United States, and I don’t think you’ve heard the last of it — believe me.
It is time for the entire world to join us in demanding that Iran’s government end its pursuit of death and destruction. It is time for the regime to free all Americans and citizens of other nations that they have unjustly detained. And above all, Iran’s government must stop supporting terrorists, begin serving its own people, and respect the sovereign rights of its neighbors.
The entire world understands that the good people of Iran want change, and, other than the vast military power of the United States, that Iran’s people are what their leaders fear the most. This is what causes the regime to restrict Internet access, tear down satellite dishes, shoot unarmed student protestors, and imprison political reformers.
Oppressive regimes cannot endure forever, and the day will come when the Iranian people will face a choice. Will they continue down the path of poverty, bloodshed, and terror? Or will the Iranian people return to the nation’s proud roots as a center of civilization, culture, and wealth where their people can be happy and prosperous once again?
The Iranian regime’s support for terror is in stark contrast to the recent commitments of many of its neighbors to fight terrorism and halt its financing.
In Saudi Arabia early last year, I was greatly honored to address the leaders of more than 50 Arab and Muslim nations. We agreed that all responsible nations must work together to confront terrorists and the Islamist extremism that inspires them.
We will stop radical Islamic terrorism because we cannot allow it to tear up our nation, and indeed to tear up the entire world.
We must deny the terrorists safe haven, transit, funding, and any form of support for their vile and sinister ideology. We must drive them out of our nations. It is time to expose and hold responsible those countries who support and finance terror groups like al Qaeda, Hezbollah, the Taliban and others that slaughter innocent people.
The United States and our allies are working together throughout the Middle East to crush the loser terrorists and stop the reemergence of safe havens they use to launch attacks on all of our people.
Last month, I announced a new strategy for victory in the fight against this evil in Afghanistan. From now on, our security interests will dictate the length and scope of military operations, not arbitrary benchmarks and timetables set up by politicians.
I have also totally changed the rules of engagement in our fight against the Taliban and other terrorist groups. In Syria and Iraq, we have made big gains toward lasting defeat of ISIS. In fact, our country has achieved more against ISIS in the last eight months than it has in many, many years combined.
We seek the de-escalation of the Syrian conflict, and a political solution that honors the will of the Syrian people. The actions of the criminal regime of Bashar al-Assad, including the use of chemical weapons against his own citizens — even innocent children — shock the conscience of every decent person. No society can be safe if banned chemical weapons are allowed to spread. That is why the United States carried out a missile strike on the airbase that launched the attack.
We appreciate the efforts of United Nations agencies that are providing vital humanitarian assistance in areas liberated from ISIS, and we especially thank Jordan, Turkey and Lebanon for their role in hosting refugees from the Syrian conflict.
The United States is a compassionate nation and has spent billions and billions of dollars in helping to support this effort. We seek an approach to refugee resettlement that is designed to help these horribly treated people, and which enables their eventual return to their home countries, to be part of the rebuilding process.
For the cost of resettling one refugee in the United States, we can assist more than 10 in their home region. Out of the goodness of our hearts, we offer financial assistance to hosting countries in the region, and we support recent agreements of the G20 nations that will seek to host refugees as close to their home countries as possible. This is the safe, responsible, and humanitarian approach.
For decades, the United States has dealt with migration challenges here in the Western Hemisphere. We have learned that, over the long term, uncontrolled migration is deeply unfair to both the sending and the receiving countries.
For the sending countries, it reduces domestic pressure to pursue needed political and economic reform, and drains them of the human capital necessary to motivate and implement those reforms.
For the receiving countries, the substantial costs of uncontrolled migration are borne overwhelmingly by low-income citizens whose concerns are often ignored by both media and government.
I want to salute the work of the United Nations in seeking to address the problems that cause people to flee from their homes. The United Nations and African Union led peacekeeping missions to have invaluable contributions in stabilizing conflicts in Africa. The United States continues to lead the world in humanitarian assistance, including famine prevention and relief in South Sudan, Somalia, and northern Nigeria and Yemen.
We have invested in better health and opportunity all over the world through programs like PEPFAR, which funds AIDS relief; the President’s Malaria Initiative; the Global Health Security Agenda; the Global Fund to End Modern Slavery; and the Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative, part of our commitment to empowering women all across the globe.
We also thank — (applause) — we also thank the Secretary General for recognizing that the United Nations must reform if it is to be an effective partner in confronting threats to sovereignty, security, and prosperity. Too often the focus of this organization has not been on results, but on bureaucracy and process.
In some cases, states that seek to subvert this institution’s noble aims have hijacked the very systems that are supposed to advance them. For example, it is a massive source of embarrassment to the United Nations that some governments with egregious human rights records sit on the U.N. Human Rights Council.
The United States is one out of 193 countries in the United Nations, and yet we pay 22 percent of the entire budget and more. In fact, we pay far more than anybody realizes. The United States bears an unfair cost burden, but, to be fair, if it could actually accomplish all of its stated goals, especially the goal of peace, this investment would easily be well worth it.
Major portions of the world are in conflict and some, in fact, are going to hell. But the powerful people in this room, under the guidance and auspices of the United Nations, can solve many of these vicious and complex problems.
The American people hope that one day soon the United Nations can be a much more accountable and effective advocate for human dignity and freedom around the world. In the meantime, we believe that no nation should have to bear a disproportionate share of the burden, militarily or financially. Nations of the world must take a greater role in promoting secure and prosperous societies in their own regions.
