Former President Donald Trump has alleged that the United Nations orchestrated a series of events aimed at sabotaging his recent appearance. He cited three specific incidents: an escalator malfunction, a teleprompter failure, and audio issues during his speech, claiming they were part of a deliberate attack. Trump has demanded an investigation into these events, suggesting they were not accidental. The first issue occurred as he was riding the escalator with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, which suddenly stopped. Trump described it as a conspiracy. During his address to the General Assembly, the teleprompter failed, and he was forced to deliver his speech without it. He also reported problems with the audio system, which reportedly prevented many attendees from hearing his speech. Trump has requested that the UN Secretary-General investigate the incidents, including reviewing security camera footage and involving the Secret Service. The UN responded by explaining that the escalator incident was due to a safety mechanism. White House officials have also voiced strong opinions, suggesting that anyone found to have intentionally caused the incidents should face significant repercussions.
