Kofi Annan was the United Nations

The UN 73rd General Assembly opened with a tribute to the memory of the UN former Secretary general Kofi Annan. "Kofi Annan was the United Nations and the United Nations was him", said António Guterres in his remarks at the funeral, now republished in our IAI Commentary. This year, Donald Trump gives his second speech, focusing on “American sovereignty” and America’s place in the world.
