Washington: US President Donald Trump will hit out at "globalist institutions" and criticize the recognition of a Palestinian state by Western allies in a speech to the United Nations, the White House said Monday. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Trump would tout "the renewal of American strength around the world" in his address. Trump has repeatedly criticized the UN and other multilateral institutions as part of his "America First" policy, and either cut funding for or withdrawn from a number of UN bodies. The move comes after several Western governments recognized a Palestinian state, angering Israel. Trump himself opposed the moves by Britain, Canada and Australia to recognize the state of Palestine, which France is due to follow on Monday.
