Nigeria: 'Useless Organisation' - Argentina President Milei Attacks UN
- On Wednesday, Argentine President Javier Milei addressed the United Nations General Assembly, calling the institution a "useless organization" filled with "arrogant parasites" that allowed "chaos, violence and international terrorism" to flourish.
- This address marked Milei's third consecutive annual broadside against the United Nations, which he has previously denounced as an "impotent organisation" promoting a "supranational government that is socialist."
- During the speech, Milei criticized the United Nations for "looking the other way" on Argentina's claim to the Falkland Islands, calling it "a national cause," while rejecting state regulation of artificial intelligence alongside President Donald Trump.

- Argentina's economic stability relies on a $20bn extended fund facility from the IMF, a dependency that complicates Milei's career-long strategy of deriding the multilateral system he depends upon.
