Biden addresses the UN General Assembly
US President Joe Biden has called on the world to step up its efforts to address the Covid-19 epidemic, climate change, and human rights abuses.
In his inaugural address, Joe Biden addressed the military conflict and added that the United States is not looking for a new cold war with its commercial rival China.
While urging his fellow leaders on the importance of working together, Biden has been reluctant to respond to criticism from his allies over the complex US withdrawal from Afghanistan and the current diplomatic differences with France.
But instead, he used the annual platform to say the United States will continue to be a trusted international ally after what he said was the foreign policy of his predecessor, Donald Trump of the United States first. In the face of climate change, Biden has pledged $ 11.4 billion a year to help poor countries. "We will work with the US Congress, doubling that number, including countermeasures." said the leader.
The climate and billions of climate billions are in short supply of $ 20 billion
As part of tackling climate change in the context of the Paris agreement, the international community planned to raise $ 100 billion a year to achieve this goal, which was never achieved. A new study shows there has been a $ 20 billion deficit and now in its new commitment Biden says it will help poor nations achieve their goals.
He spoke in support of the US Alliance but said that maintaining some independence was not the answer. Regarding the Covid 19 epidemic, he said the world's major concerns at this time could not be solved by military force, a new type of virus could not be destroyed by a bomb or a rifle, instead the world leaders working together.
The United States is ready to return to Iran's nuclear deal
Regarding Iran's nuclear dispute, he said, the United States is still in the process of preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons. They are ready to involve Iran in a diplomatic settlement and are ready to return fully to the so-called Joint Implementation Plan (JCPOA), which governs the 2015 nuclear deal, should Iran also be prepared.
He also touched on the issue of eliminating the use of nuclear weapons in the Korean peninsula and said that concrete steps had been taken to improve stability in the region.
