Trump made his debut at the United Nations, using his first appearance to urge the 193-nation organization to reduce bureaucracy and costs while more clearly defining its mission around the world. But while Trump chastised the U.N. — an organization he sharply criticized as a candidate for president — he said the U.S. would “pledge to be partners in your work” in order to make the body a more effective force for peace across the globe.
