Former Senegalese leader withdraws UN secretary bid
Former Senegalese President Macky Sall withdrew his candidacy for the position of UN Secretary-General after an informal Security Council vote showed a preference for a candidate from Latin America and the Caribbean, with a tendency to choose a woman for the role. His decision was driven by a sense of responsibility and a desire to achieve consensus within the Council, following the vote that revealed no full support from the permanent members who hold veto power. As a result, six candidates remain in the race for the position, with the current Secretary-General's term ending in December 2026.
