> US President Donald Trump used his UN General Assembly address to defend the war on Iran, saying Washington had prevented Tehran from obtaining a nuclear weapon and warning he could “annihilate the Islamic Republic” without a deal to end the conflict. He urged economic isolation of Iran; its delegation walked out shortly after he began speaking.
