UN diplomacy and disputes Vremya’s New York report

Sep 24

Vremya’s continuous New York correspondent report follows the UN assembly’s diplomacy and disputes. Lavrov meets Serbia’s Vučić, who reiterates no sanctions against Russia and acknowledges pressure; IAEA director Grossi; Senegal’s current and former presidents; and Arab League and Swiss counterparts. The report’s interpretations of pressure, UN leadership ambitions and meeting atmosphere remain attributed. It separately cites Reuters for Dmitriev travelling to New York for U.S. talks and says its own information is that a meeting occurred, without naming the American participants or disclosing an outcome. The correspondent then replays Zelenskyy’s missile retort to a Moscow-visit question, disparages his language, says he received no Patriots from Trump and recounts the Russian Foreign Ministry’s False Dmitry analogy. A separate Wall Street Journal interview excerpt has Zelenskyy discussing living safely in Ukraine after the war and his presidency. Abbas’s video address says the twenty-point Gaza plan’s withdrawal and reconstruction objectives remain unimplemented and accuses Israel of killing civilians and seeking displacement; Vremya says a U.S. visa refusal kept him away. The report claims nearly all delegates left during Netanyahu’s address, without an independent count. It replays Mamdani’s earlier statement acknowledging the city lacks independent authority to enforce the ICC warrant, then Netanyahu’s pre-departure promise to defend Israel and its soldiers against what he calls lies. Israeli media are cited for an expected visit of no more than six hours. No substantive excerpt of Netanyahu’s UN speech or new meeting agreement is supplied; the speeches, allegations and editorial interpretations remain distinct attributed accounts.

Mahmoud Abbas addresses the UN General Assembly by video on September 24. In the excerpt he says the Palestinians backed Trump's twenty-point plan to stop the fighting, secure Israeli withdrawal and reconstruct Gaza, but that these objectives have not been implemented. He accuses Israel of continuing to kill civilians and of seeking to displace Palestinians from Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem. Vremya says he could not attend because the United States refused him a visa. These are Abbas's claims; the item gives no Israeli response to his specific assertions. Kan airs another excerpt in which Abbas calls events in Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem a coordinated colonial plan to make life harder and force Palestinians to leave. The on-screen identification confirms the speaker. This adds his own words to the existing video-address event; Kan's surrounding preview says Netanyahu will rebut criticism but does not answer these specific allegations in this excerpt.
