Hillary Clinton says she's planning to meet with several foreign leaders during the U.N. General Assembly next week.
Your move, Donald Trump.
When it comes to establishing an international profile, there's no bigger platform for a U.S. presidential candidate than the annual meeting of world leaders at the United Nations. This year's White House race, featuring the largely untested, less-than-diplomatic Republican nominee, has added a dash of uncertainty to the gathering in New York.
Not only can Clinton and Trump use the event to give themselves a statesmanlike glow, they also can send a signal about their foreign policy priorities in whom they choose to see. And international leaders are unlikely to reject the opportunity to meet with the potential next leader of the world's lone superpower, even if he's insulted their countries.
