President Trump has been sharply criticised by his Democrat rival, Joe Biden, for dealing with the pandemic.

It is urging people not to follow the scientific advice of health experts. The president should resign”, said Mr. Biden, adding that “if he had acted earlier, he would have saved thousands of lives from the Coronavirus”.

In his speech, Mr. Trump, who called COVIID-19 of a Chinese virus, said the UN must put China to responsibility as the country that spread this plague” and criticised the World Health Organisation for false statements about the virus. He said she's controlled by China.

President Trump said that if the UN wants to be effective, it should focus on the real problems of the world, including terrorism, the oppression of women, forced labour, drug trafficking and people, religious persecution and ethnic cleansing of religious minorities.

“America will always be a human rights leader. My administration is promoting religious freedom and opportunities for women”, he said, adding that “we know that America's welfare is the cornerstone of world freedom and security”.

President Trump cited the growth of the economy before the virus and said the United States is rapidly doing it again. He also targeted military spending and said US revived NATO, where other countries are now paying too much in quotas for the alliance.

In its foreign policy, Mr. Trump has publicly questioned the value of international alliances and organisations, including NATO, the World Trade Organization and the World Health Organization.

This month we reached a peace agreement between Serbia and Kosovo. We achieved two major successes with two peace accords in the Middle East”, he said, referring to those of Israel with the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain.

President Trump also spoke of efforts to end the war in Afghanistan, where American forces have been deployed since 2001. According to administration plans, the level of American troops in that country will drop to 4,500 by November.

The United States is working to end the war in Afghanistan, bringing troops home. America is performing its historic role in establishing peace”, he said.

“We are more powerful than ever before”, President Trump said, adding that only by caring for your citizens can you achieve real co-operation.

I proudly put America first, just as you must put your first”, he said.
