USA aims to reform UN leadership
The article discusses the race to select the next Secretary-General of the United Nations, with expectations that a woman may become the first to hold the position since the organization's founding 80 years ago. Eight candidates are competing, with a leading contender from Latin America, amid calls to give the region and women greater opportunities. However, the process takes place within the Security Council, which balances international considerations and disagreements over the organization's future and its role. The Washington administration, led by Trump, is attempting to push for the appointment of a candidate who aligns with its vision for reforming the organization—aimed at reducing the budget and workforce, with a focus on peace and security. The competition is complicated by the veto power of the five permanent members, making it difficult to determine the final candidate, and the final decision remains dependent on the shifting international power dynamics in the coming months.
