Trump in the UN: S. Korea and Iran are a threat to the world

US President claims North Korea and Iran are regrettable regimes, and urged to reject threats in the world

US President Donald Trump said in a speech to the United Nations General Assembly in New York that "depravity regimes" is a threat to the world.

In his first speech to the UN, Trump said that "sovereign and strong countries are the basis of the world order" and repeated his pre-election promise that "America is at the forefront".

"Departure regimes are a threat to other countries, but also to their nations," Trump said, adding that "such regimes help expanded terrorist networks."

As a "waste regimen," Trump quoted North Korea and Iran.

"We must reject threats to sovereignty from Ukraine to the South China Sea," Trump said.

He announced to all opponents that the US military would "become stronger than ever in history".

'Kim Jong-un is Rocket Man in suicide mission'

He added that the United States "will forever be a friend of the world and especially allies, but that Americans are the primary duty".

"All responsible leaders have a duty to serve their citizens. We can no longer be exploited or enter into unilateral agreements where the US does not get anything in return," Trump said.

He also spoke about the crisis in the Korean peninsula, saying "if America is threatened, Washington will have no choice but to completely destroy North Korea."

For North Korean leader Kim Jong-gun, he said that "Rocket Man is in a suicide mission," Reuters reports.

"Now is the time for all countries to work together to isolate the Kim regime, until it stops with hostile behavior," Trump said.

He also referred to Iran, which he called "a waste country" and "a corrupt dictatorship" whose main export product is violence.

"Frankly, the nuclear deal with Iran is shameful for the United States, you believe me. It's time for the whole world to join us in seeking from the Iranian government to end its quest for killing and destruction," Trump said.

Speaking of Venezuela, the US president said the situation there "unacceptable".
