Republic I request protocol to escort
his Excellency and invite him to address
the assembly
[Music]
to the authorities of the United Nations
representatives of the various
countries member countries and all of
the citizens of the world that are
watching us good
afternoon for those of you who are not
aware I'm not a politician I'm an
economist I'm a liberal libertarian
Economist who never aimed to be a
politician but was who was honored to
become the president of the Republic of
Argentina following the resounding
failure of More Than A Century of
collectivist policies that destroyed our
country this is my first speech to the
United Nations General Assembly and I'd
like to take this opportunity to humbly
alert the different nations of the world
around about the path that we are moving
down and have been for decades and about
the danger that this of this
organization failing as it has been
doing in its original Mission I haven't
come here to tell the world what it
should be doing I've come here to tell
the world on the one hand what will
happen if the United Nations continues
to promote collectivist policies that
it's been promoting under the mantle of
the 2030 agenda and on the other hand
the values of the new
Argentina I want to begin by giving
credit where credit's due the United
Nations was born out of the horror of
the
cruestv its fundamental principles in
the Universal Declaration of Human
Rights from that was born a basic
agreement around one Maxim that all
human beings are born free and equal in
dignity and
rights under the watch of this
organization the adoption of this and
the adoption of these ideas over the
last 70 years Humanity has experienced
the longest period of Global Peace in
history which has coincided with the
greatest period of economic growth in
history it established an international
Forum in which nations can resolve their
conflicts through cooperation rather
than resorting instantaneously to
weapons and it achieved something
previously Unthinkable to sit the five
Great powers of the world around one
same table with the same veto power
despite having completely counterposed
interests all of this didn't mean that
the scourge of War disappeared but it
did at least for now ensure that no
conflict has escalated to Global
proportions the result was that we moved
from having two world wars in less than
40 years which together claimed more
than 120 million lives to having 70
consecutive years of relative Global
Peace and security and stability under
the mantle of an order which allowed the
entire world to be integrated
commercially to compete and to prosper
because where trade
enters we don't
have bullets said bastia because trade
guarantees peace peace guarantees and
freedom guarantees trade equality and
equality before the law guarantees
freedom it managed to ensure what
prophet Isaiah said that he will judge
between the Nations and will settle
disputes for many peoples they will beat
their swords into plowshares and their
Spears into pring hooks Nation will not
take up sword against Nation nor they
will they train for war anymore this is
what's happened M mainly under the watch
of the United Nations in its first few
decades that's why we're talking about
an outstanding success in the history of
Nations that has been achieved by the
United Nations and it cannot be
overlooked now at sometime and as often
happens with the majority of
bureaucratic structures that are created
by men this organ organization stopped
looking after its main aims set out in
its founding declaration and started to
change this was an organization that had
essentially been thought up uh as a
shield to protect the reign of men to
and became a leviathan with various
tentacles purporting to decide not only
what not only what each nation state
should do but also how all the citizens
in the world should live that's how we
moved from being an organization that
pursued peace to an organization that
imposed is an IDE an ideology on its
members about an endless list of topics
in society the model of the United
Nations that had been successful the
origin of which we can me see in the
ideas of President Wilson who talked
about the need for peace without victory
and that was founded out of cooperation
from nation states has been abandoned
it's been replaced by a model of
supernational government of
international bureaucrats that attempt
to impose on citizens of the world a
specific way of living what we're
discussing in New York this week at the
summit of the future is nothing more
than going further down this tragic path
the tragic path that this institution
has adopted furthering down going
further down this
path uh which in the very words of the
Secretary General calls on us to define
a new social contract redoubling our
commitments in the 2030 agenda on this
I'd like to be clear about Argentina's
position the 2030 agenda although it's
well intentioned in its goals is nothing
but a supranational government program
that is socialist in shape it purports
to resolve the problems of modernity
with solutions that afflict the
sovereignty of nation states and violate
the right to life right to freedom and
property of persons it's an agenda that
purports to resolve poverty inequality
discrimination with legislation that
simply furthers these issues because the
history of the world has shown that the
only way of guaranteeing Prosperity is
by limiting
the power of the Monarch by guaranteeing
equality before the law def defending
the right to life to freedom and to the
ownership and property of individuals
the adoption of this agenda is fully in
line with these uh privileged interests
and uh looks beyond the principles that
were set out in the Universal
Declaration of Human
Rights has it has therefore Twisted the
role of this organization and set it on
the wrong course we've seen how an
organization that was born to defend the
rights of man has become one of the main
proponents of systematic violations of
Freedom uh such as for instance uh the
lockdowns imposed in 2020 which should
be compos seen as
a uh a crime against humanity in this
same CA house we that supports to defend
human rights we have also uh included
bloody dictatorships in the human Rights
Council including Cuba and Venezuela
without reproach in this same house
which purports to defend the rights of
women we've allowed on seedor the seedor
committee uh countries that punish their
women just for showing their skin in
this same house that have voted against
the state of Israel which is the only
country in the Middle East to defend uh
a liberal democracy we have
simultaneously uh shown a total
inability to respond to the scourge of
terrorism on the economic level we have
promoted collectivist policies that
undermine economic growth violate
property rights and disrupt a natural
economic process in preventing the the
most Left Behind countries to freely
enjoy their own
resources they have imposed regulations
and prohibitions specifically
uh because of countries that wish to
develop themselves we have further
established toxic relationship ship
between Global governance and
international credit bodies demanding
that those countries that are most Left
Behind commit resources that they don't
have to programs that they don't need
becoming them Perpetual making them
Perpetual
debtors we have also seen ridiculous
policies uh with malthusian uh stances
such as policies zero emissions policies
that harm all poor countries policies
related to sexual and Reproductive
Rights when birth rates in Western
countries are plummeting announcing a
somber future for all of us the
organization has uh met its mission of
upholding territorial sovereignty of its
uh members as we know the Argent 's have
firsthand experience of this with the
malvinas islands we have also seen that
the veto of the permanent members of the
security Council has begun to be used in
the defense of the specific interests of
a certain few that's where we are today
with a powerless organization powerless
to provide solutions to the true Global
conflicts uh for instance the Aber
barent Russian invasion of Ukraine which
has costed the lives of more than
300,000 people and uh Left Behind more
than 1 million wounded this is an
organization that rather than tackling
these conflicts invest time and effort
in imposing on poor countries how they
should and how much they should produce
who they should do relations with how
what they should eat what they should
believe in um as The Pact for the future
purports to dictate this long list of
errors and contradictions uh has led to
a loss of credibility for the United
Nations before the citizens of the Free
World I'd like to issue a warning here
we are coming to the end of a cycle
collectivism and the moral posturing and
the woker agenda
has is coming up against reality there
are no further credible solutions to the
real problems of the world if the 2030
agenda fails as recognized by its own
promoters the response should should be
to wonder whether or not this was uh an
ill-conceived program from the out from
the outset we should accept this reality
and change what we're
doing the same thing always happens with
ideas that come from the left is
designing a model in line with what
human beings should do and when
individuals freely decide to act
otherwise they have no better solution
than to restrict repress or cut off
their freedom in Argentina we've seen
with our own eyes what they have done at
the end of this uh path of envy and sad
passion poverty uh Anarchy and a total
lack of
Liberty we still have time to choose
another Direction I want to be clear
that so that there's no poor
misunderstanding here Argentina there's
living a going through a profound
process of change currently has decided
to embrace the ideas of Freedom these
are ideas that say that all citizens are
born free and equal before the law that
we have inalienable rights granted by
our creator uh to life to freedom and to
property these principles that are
setting the framework of of the process
of change that we're undertaking in
Argentina are also the principles that
will guide our International conduct
from now on we believe in the defense of
life for all we believe in the defense
of property for all we believe in
freedom of expression for
all we believe in freedom of worship for
all we believe in Freedom of trade for
all and we believe in limited
governments
all and in these times what happens in
one country has a swift impact on others
and we believe that peoples should be
able to live free of tyranny and
oppression be it political oppression
economic slavery or religious fanaticism
this fundamental idea shouldn't be mere
words it should be supported by our acts
diplomatically economically and
materially through the Joint Force of
all of the countries that stand up for
Freedom this doctrine of the new AR
artina is no more and no less than the
true essence of the United Nations that
is the cooperation of Nations United in
the defense of Freedom if the United
Nations wants to resume the principles
that led to its birth and adopt the role
for which it was designed it can count
on the full support of Argentina and its
struggle for Freedom you should be aware
though that Argentina will not support
any policy that implies restricting
individual or trade freedoms nor the
violation of the natural rights of
individuals regardless of who promotes
these or how big the consensus is in
this institution for this reason I'd
like to officially express our dissent
on The Pact for the future that was
signed on Sunday and I invite all
nations of the Free World to support us
not only in uh this on in relation to
this pack but also in the establishment
of a new agenda for this Noble
institution that is the agenda for
freedom from this day on you should know
that Argentina the Republic of Argentina
will abandon its policy of historic neut
neutrality and will be on the Vanguard
strug in the struggle for the defense of
freedom because as Thomas Payne said
those who expect to reap the blessings
of Freedom must like men undergo the
fatigue of supporting
it Long Live freedom God damn it thank
you very
much on behalf of the assembly I wish to
thank the president of the Argentine
Republic the assembly will hear an
address by his Excellency na arando bu
president of the Republic of El Salvador
I request protocol to escort his
Excellency and invite him to address the
assembly
