A year ago, Donald Trump went to the rostrum of the United Nations General Assembly - and after taxing an axe to US aid and development funding, read the world the riot act. One Iran war later, the US president sticking to script with a speech that borrowed much of the language of last year. With citizens on five continents now feeling the pain at the pump, we'll ask what it will take to tame a global energy crisis whose potential spiral mirrors the contagion of hostilities from the Strait of Hormuz to the mouth of the Red Sea?
On that score, Trump blaming a global diesel shortage on Ukraine's drone strikes on Russian critical infrastructure. But Russia only accounts for 6-percent of global diesel exports. We'll debrief the bilateral meeting between the U-S president and his Ukranian counterpart. With no end in sight to conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, one notable absence at UN headquarters: the leader of China. Xi Jinping who's passed over New York for Washington where he'll discuss the future of AI with his hosts... a White House state dinner that reminds those present in New York of the old adage that if you're not at the table, you're on the menu.
