FinallyNew US Ambassador Nikki Haley strutted into the UN on Friday with a blunt message to American allies: "For those who don't have our backs, we're taking names."
The former South Carolina governor made the remark to reporters as she arrived at the world body's headquarters in Manhattan to present her credentials to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.
"Our goal with the administration is to show value at the UN and the way that we'll show value is to show our strength, show our voice, have the backs of our allies and make sure that our allies have our back as well," she said.
"For those that don't have our back, we're taking names, we will make points to respond to that accordingly," President Trump's envoy said.
