Abbas's speech was noted for its moderate tone, as he refrained from directly criticizing Trump, which some interpret as a strategic move to facilitate dialogue.

The Middle East conflict remained a central topic at the assembly, with various international leaders weighing in on the situation.

According to thenationalnews (Western Alternative), over 1,200 Israelis and more than 65,400 Palestinians have been killed, highlighting the severe impact on Palestinian civilians.
