AI-generated summary
The UN General Assembly took place at the United Nations headquarters on the East River in New York, with leaders including Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu speaking and protests against Netanyahu taking place.
New York has actually returned to normality this Saturday morning. The excessive police presence is gone. The barriers have been removed at many intersections around the United Nations. Traffic is the usual chaos, but no longer a disaster. The tabloid Daily News headlines "Wet And Windy Wallop" and the city is preparing for heavy rain and storms. Mayor Zoran Mamdami has issued a travel warning telling New Yorkers to stay at home.
That fits the mood of the fifth day of the General Assembly at the United Nations headquarters on the East River. The heads of state and government have spoken, Donald Trump came and went, as did Benjamin Netanyahu and the protests against him. Attention wanes, the world moves on. And it seemed more and more in recent months that virtually no one was waiting for Germany any more.
AI outlook — possibilities, not facts
