Michelle Bachelet pointed out that the elections of the Secretary General are held in a difficult international environment. We are talking about weakening the principles and foundations of international cooperation, systematic violations of international law and denial of the problem of climate change contrary to scientific evidence.
The mandate of the current UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres expires on December 31, 2026. The fight for the post continues eight candidates. According to the results of the secret preliminary vote, former Deputy Prime Minister of Costa Rica Rebecca Greenspan was in the lead.
