Snake Plissken rescues the President. The President kills The Duke. The President is giving a live message to the world summit nations and he plays the wrong tape (one of Cabbie's tapes). Snake switched the tapes and he destroys the real tape, the one that was for the world summit event.

Continuity mistake: When trying to escape the gang on Broadway, Snake and the others are in a yellow station wagon they stole from the Duke's men. They turn the car around to back it through a barricade of cars to escape. One shot shows their car's head lights are on, but just before it hits the barricade, the headlights are suddenly off and then are back on again in the next shot. (00:56:55)
Brain: I swear to God, Snake, I thought you were dead.
Snake Plissken: Yeah. You and everybody else.

Chosen answer: It's a chain of coffee shops in the New York area that were around decades before Starbucks. (Their initial business was roasted nuts before they switched to coffee and kept the name.) They would have been as common a sight to 80s New Yorkers as Starbucks is today to everyone.
