UN Security Council tests contenders in race for next secretary-general
The Security Council will hold another straw poll Friday for UN leadership contenders. Costa Rica's Rebeca Grynspan led the first informal vote among members. Argentina's Rafael Grossi and Chile's Michelle Bachelet are also candidates. Veto powers may delay their preferences, and new contenders could emerge. This poll aims to provide direction for the ongoing Secretary-General selection process.
