00:00So Benjamin Netanyahu is going to arrive in NYC next weekend.
00:04Can you tell us if you're planning to protest his arrival?
00:07If not, are you encouraging others to do so?
00:11And to follow up on that, has the NYPD expressed any concern to you
00:15about the scale of protests, planned protests, things like that?
00:20I do not have any plans to attend any protests at the UN General Assembly.
00:24And I have also been in touch with our PD in general
00:31as we prepare for the UN General Assembly.
00:33Right now, there are no expected threats that we know of,
00:36and we continue to be confident in being able to deliver safety and security for New Yorkers.
00:40And to New Yorkers, I have never encouraged them to protest.
00:44What I have always told them is that they have the right to do so in this city.
00:48We respect that right.
00:49And this is a city that is proud of the Constitution, proud of the First Amendment.
00:52We'll continue to do so.
00:54We'll continue to do so.
