Biden Engages Global Leaders at UN Assembly

As the United Nations General Assembly approaches, world leaders are keenly observing the foreign policy approaches of Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump ahead of the 2024 U.S. election. President Joe Biden is engaged in a series of diplomatic meetings to solidify his foreign policy legacy while addressing ongoing global crises, including the conflicts in Gaza and Ukraine. Notably, Biden will host a Quad summit with leaders from Australia, India, and Japan, and plans to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy next week. Meanwhile, both Harris and Trump are actively seeking to establish diplomatic relationships, with Zelenskyy appealing for continued support against Russia from all three U.S. leaders. The political landscape is marked by anxiety from allies about the future direction of American foreign policy, as Biden's engagements may be overshadowed by the candidates' contrasting visions for the country. The upcoming UN meetings provide a pivotal platform for these discussions and potential collaborations.
