The UN General Assembly is holding its 75th meeting this week in New York — virtually. It’s a chance for world leaders to stand in front of a global audience, speak their minds, and even get a bit theatrical. The World’s Jason Margolis takes us on a historical tour of some of the more memorable moments.
