President William Ruto responded to US President Donald Trump’s UNGA speech, in which Trump called climate change “the greatest con job ever”. Ruto said floods, wildfires, and droughts show climate change is real and requires urgent action. He highlighted Africa’s shift from charity-based to investment-driven climate financing and stressed the need for reforms in the UN and global financial systems. He warned the UN risks collapse unless it becomes more democratic and responsive.
