US President Donald Trump has arrived in New York to attend the United Nations General Assembly and hold one-on-one talks with a number of world leaders.
Trump will host the Global Call to Protect Religious Freedom event on Monday at the UN.
On Tuesday, he will deliver a UN address for the third time as US president. He is expected to mention Iran, and possibly North Korea.
His speech comes amid growing tensions between the US and Iran following the attacks on Saudi oil facilities.
Trump is expected to use his speech and bilateral talks to promote the US stance and urge world leaders to step up pressure on Iran.
Trump plans to meet with more than 10 leaders, including Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and South Korean President Moon Jae-in.
Trump said on Sunday, "Nothing is ever off the table completely, but I have no intention of meeting with Iran."
Trump and Abe are also expected to discuss trade.
