UNITED NATIONS — The United States finally has representation at the United Nations after former national security adviser Mike Waltz presented his ambassadorial credentials to U.N.

Waltz was nominated to become President Donald Trump‘s ambassador to the U.N. in May after he mistakenly added Atlantic Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg in March to a Signal messaging group chat discussing U.S. strikes against Houthis in Yemen in his capacity as the U.S.’s top national security aide.
