Trump ridicules Biden's UN speech as audience looks at their phones.

Former President Donald Trump took a jab at President Joe Biden's address to the United Nations General Assembly, labeling it a "surrender".
In a post on social media, Trump wrote "Biden just finished his surrender at the United Nations, and nobody, despite all we give them, showed up". He added that there was "no respect for America any longer".

However, photos of the event showed that many seats at the United Nations headquarters in New York were occupied. There were reports that some delegates scrolled through Instagram and Google Maps on their phones during Biden's speech.

Notably, some of Biden's allies such as British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, French President Emmanuel Macron, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping skipped the general assembly this year. Biden had previously met with them at the G20 Leaders' Summit last week in New Delhi, India.

In his address, President Biden called on world leaders to stand together amid Russia's continued war on Ukraine. He assured the United Nations that the US would support Ukraine in defending their sovereignty and freedom, and condemned Russia for believing that the world would allow it to "brutalize Ukraine without consequence".

The reception to President Biden's speech was far different than that to President Trump's address at the general assembly in 2018. During that speech, Trump had claimed that he had accomplished more than almost any other administration in the history of the US, to which some audience members laughed. In response, Trump said "didn't expect that reaction, but that's ok".
