Milei called the UN a useless organization in his speech to the General Assembly

An opinion column published in The Media Line, which examines whether Israel is treated differently from other conflicts in this year’s UN speeches, cited Javier Milei’s remarks as one of the harshest criticisms leveled against the organization. According to the article, the Argentine president called the UN a useless organization and accused its bureaucrats of acting like an arrogant caste disguised as good intentions.

The article notes that Milei also blamed the organization for allowing chaos, violence, and terrorism to spread, for harboring dictatorships, and for systematically voting against Israel while remaining silent in the face of other abuses. The author of the column notes that, much like Donald Trump’s criticisms of the International Criminal Court, Milei’s remarks do not in and of themselves prove that Israel receives unequal treatment, but they place him among those who question the selectivity of international organizations.
