Israel – Prime Minister Addresses General Debate, 73rd Session
Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of the State of Israel, addresses the general debate of the 73rd Session of the General Assembly of the UN (New York, 25 September – 01 October 2018). Speaking at the 73rd gathering of the world leaders this week at the United Nations in New York, Israelâs Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed that Israel has discovered âIranâs secret atomic warehouse,â which contained as much as 300 tons of nuclear related equipment and material.â Standing at the podium of the General Assembly Israelâs Prime Minister showed images of alleged nuclear sites in Teheran, Iran, as well as one showing alleged Hezbollahâs âmissile convergent sites along Beirutâs international airportâ in Lebanon. Netanyahu addressed directly Iranâs government and said âwe will continue to act against you in Syria, we will act against you in Lebanon, we will act against you in Iraq, we will act against you wherever and whenever we must act to defend our state and to defend our people.â He also said âI want to use this opportunity to express Israelâs appreciation to President Trump and Ambassador Haley for the unwavering support they provided Israel at the United Nations.â The United States recently pulled out of the UN Human Rights Council, claiming the âbias against Israelâ at the Council and stop funding the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees.
