A look back at the UN General Assembly this week, where President Trump told the international body that it was increasingly irrelevant.
In his first-ever UN speech, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese made a fresh push for Australia to get a seat on the United Nations Security Council in 2029-30.
He also described climate change as an "existential threat" presenting a different view to Trump, who used his address to ridicule climate change as a "con job."
