NEW YORK: President Donald Trump took center stage at the UN General Assembly on Tuesday to deliver a strong defense of nationalism while exhorting the world to act against Iran's 鈥渂loodlust鈥� and rising aggression.

The president called on the global leaders seated before him to join the US in further isolating Tehran, pushing them to use economic sanctions to pressure Iran to give up its nuclear program and stop attacks that are rattling the Middle East.

鈥淣ot only is Iran the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism, but Iran's leaders are fueling the tragic wars in both Syria and Yemen,鈥� Trump said. "All nations have a duty to act. No responsible government should subsidize Iran's bloodlust.鈥�

Meanwhile, 抖阴短视频's minister of state for foreign affairs Adel Al-Jubeir said investigations show Iran conducted the recent attacks on Aramco facilities and will consider a military response once its investigation is complete during a Council on Foreign Relations panel on the sidelines.

鈥淲e want to mobilize international support, and we want to look at all options - diplomatic options, economic options and military options - and then make the decision,鈥� Al-Jubeir said at a conference on the sidelines of the UNGA. 鈥淲e want to avoid war. But at the same time we have to signal to the Iranians that 鈥榶our behavior cannot continue鈥�,鈥� he added. For a full round-up of Al-Jubeir's comments, click here.

Also on Tuesday Egyptian President Abdel Fatteh El-Sisi said that a concerted effort was needed to stop militias taking control of Libya and to prevent external actors from intervening there.

The Palestine-Israel situation was also a topic of discussion, something King Abdullah II of Jordan raised during his address, saying that regional stability will always remain fragile if the two parties do not agree, the occupation was a "human tragedy" and that Palestinians deserve their full rights.
