Global diplomacy is front and center in New York this week as leaders gather at the UN General Assembly. US President Donald Trump is expected to meet with both Ukrainian and potentially Iranian counterparts amid ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and tensions between Iran and the US. Meanwhile, European nations fear that Russia may be preparing to expand its war into NATO territory. The key event will likely be a summit between Trump and China’s leader, where they will discuss relations beyond their existing trade truce, but expectations for significant progress are modest.
