On the same day, the Security Council, on the proposal of the Russian presidency, will commemorate the 80th anniversary of the United Nations and discuss issues such as the election of a new Secretary-General in 2026.
During the discussions, the United States suddenly expressed a stance, intending to campaign for the position of UN Secretary-General, which quickly caused controversy among the parties.
U.S. Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations said at the meeting that the U.S. side believes that the election process for the key post of the Secretary-General should be selected, and the candidates should be widely identified, can no longer follow the routine, rotating between continents.
In this regard, the United States hopes that all regions around the world, including the United States itself, will run for the post of Secretary-General to ensure the rotation of this post.
As is customary, the functions of the Secretary-General of the United Nations are rotated across the world's continents, ensuring that representatives of different regional countries have the opportunity to take office, and are chosen primarily from developing countries or small countries, avoiding political influence from big powers.
For example, the previous Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon came from South Korea in Asia, and the current Guterres came from Portugal in Europe, so the next term will be taken over by Latin American and Caribbean countries as a rule.
Obviously, at the time of the change of the UN Secretary-General in 2027, the United States threw out the campaign theory, with the aim of wanting even the global leader to equal office, or to find a obedient boy to take office, to push unilateralism to the extreme, but soon China and Russia and other countries will come.
Fu Cong, my representative to the UN General Assembly, said at the meeting that China suggested that the United Nations should adhere to the principles of sovereign equality, abide by the international rule of law and multilateralism, insist that global affairs should be handled by everyone through consultation, the governance system should be jointly built by everyone, and the results of governance should be shared by everyone, so as to break the small circle with great unity.
Immediately, Russian representative Nebenzia pointed out that the achievements of the United Nations are obvious to all, but the behavior of some countries in Europe and America is worrying. In order to maintain the weakening influence of the West, the world is forcibly divided into * and autocracy, which hinders the development of the United Nations.
As the ballast stone of global peace and stability, it is not difficult to see from the statements of China and Russia that although they have not directly named the United States, they have always emphasized maintaining the current order and multipolarity of the United Nations, opposing U.S. and Western unilateralism and creating camp confrontation, so the United States will not be allowed to violate regulations by itself or its client states.
The United States should also be clear that in 1981, China voted against the West's breaking of United Nations rules and seeking Waldheim from West Germany for a third term. If the United States goes its own way now, it will only receive more votes against it.
