22.09.2026 ⇱ The Day Trump Threatened Iran at the UN
⌹

Morning papers opened on the UN General Assembly in New York, stressing veto paralysis in the Security Council and an existential crisis as Guterres began his final year, with speculation over his successor and what Jetten would say on the escalating ICC dispute.

Attention shifted domestically by midday to the Health Council advising against introducing the 13-week ultrasound over frequent false results, and to prosecutors demanding 12 years against Amsterdam official Jim B. for selling personal data used in dozens of attacks, alongside Greenpeace warnings of high PFAS levels in tap water in the west.

Evening coverage turned to Trump's opening address to the UN debate, with threats of complete destruction of Iran and a call to turn away from the International Criminal Court, while EU states reached a last-minute deal to extend Russia sanctions but delisted two oligarchs after French pressure.

De VVD’er suggereerde dat een groot deel van de zaken bestond uit meldingen zonder aanknopingspunten voor opsporing. Dat beeld klopt niet, concludeert de Algemene Rekenkamer. „Wij verbazen ons.”
