“Each of us here today is the emissary of a distinct culture, a rich history, and a people bound together by ties of memory, tradition, and the values that make our homelands like
nowhere else on Earth. That is why America will always choose independence and cooperation over global governance, control, and domination. I honour the right of every nation in this
room to pursue its own customs, beliefs, and traditions. The United States will not tell you how to live or work or worship. We only ask that you honour our sovereignty in return.” -
Kind of ironic considering the US does interfere. Also funny since the UN and global governance is partly the idea of America. One of the reasons the UN HQ is in the US.
"Ultimately, it is up to the nations of the region to decide what kind of future they want for themselves and their children." - from the speech you didn’t watch.
