Trump's week in review: Pres. Erdogan meeting, Tylenol warning and TikTok

2. Trump decries UN for funding  mass migration, calls for defense of Christianity 

During a speech at the United Nations General Assembly Tuesday, Trump accused the supranational organization of “funding an assault on Western countries and their borders” and advancing a “crisis” that has become “the number one political issue of our time.” Referring to what he described as “uncontrolled” mass migration into Western Europe, Trump warned, “Your countries are being ruined.”

“The U.N. is supposed to stop invasions, not create them, and not finance them. In the United States, we reject the idea that mass numbers of people from foreign lands can be permitted to travel halfway around the world, violate our sovereignty, cause unmitigated crime and deplete our social safety net,” he said.

The president insisted that Europe “has been invaded by a force of illegal aliens like nobody’s ever seen before. 

He added, "Illegal aliens are pouring into Europe. Nobody's doing anything to change it, to get them out. It's not sustainable. And because they choose to be politically correct, they're doing just absolutely nothing about it."

Trump cited London as an example of the consequences of unrestrained illegal migration, and pointed to efforts to establish Sharia law there as he warned that “Immigration and their suicidal energy ideas will be the death of Western Europe if something is not done immediately.”

The president concluded his address by urging the international community to “defend free speech and free expression” and “protect religious liberty, including for the most persecuted religion on the planet today — it’s called Christianity.”
