Eight candidates vie for Guterres' successor

Amid deep divisions and challenges facing the organization—including a decline in multilateralism, deteriorating funding, and the impact of international tensions—eight candidates are competing, including three men and five women. It is expected that the distribution of votes and deliberations will shift in order to find a nominee who has the support of at least nine countries and can avoid a veto from the five permanent members.
