Nusseibeh on UN Solutions
The article argues that Lana Nusseibeh’s candidacy for UN secretary-general should be taken seriously, citing her experience representing the UAE from 2013 to 2024 and her work building consensus, including the negotiations that led to Resolution 2720 on facilitating aid deliveries to Gaza. It sets out her vision for a UN better able to achieve tangible results through administrative reform to improve spending efficiency, early action to prevent conflicts, stronger partnerships, development and human rights, and greater involvement of member states in addressing technological and climate challenges. After six rounds of Security Council straw polls, Nusseibeh received seven “encouraging” votes in the seventh and eighth rounds, while her campaign tracked the positions of 39 countries. The author argues that restoring public trust will ultimately depend on whether the next leader can turn diplomacy and reform into results on the ground.
