The second secret ballot opens the real power struggle for the top UN job — Rebeca Grynspan leads the race, but Washington, Moscow, Beijing, Paris and London ultimately hold the keys
The UN Secretary-General’s visit to Nicosia aims to turn confidence-building measures into a genuine political process. His separate meetings with Nikos Christodoulides and Tufan Erhürman, the private dinner and Wednesday’s joint meeting will reveal whether there is sufficient ground for meaningful negotiations—or whether partition is becoming entrenched. The European Union may not formally sit at the table, but it is an indispensable part of any viable settlement.
A high-level diplomatic offensive is unfolding ahead of UN Secretary-General António Guterres’ visit to Cyprus, as President Nikos Christodoulides convenes the National Council, prepares for strategic consultations with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis in Athens, and closely coordinates with the European Union and the United Nations. Against the backdrop of renewed regional tensions, the coming days are expected to shape the next chapter of the Cyprus peace process.
UN Secretary-General António Guterres will travel to Cyprus on July 27-28 in a renewed effort to revive the long-stalled reunification process. Diplomatic sources say the visit could culminate in the announcement of a new five-party conference and a structured roadmap aimed at breaking the decades-long deadlock over the Cyprus issue.
Guterres appointed the United Nations Under-Secretary-General and high representative of the Alliance of Civilisations (UNAOC) Miguel Ángel Moratinos to represent him at the award ceremony in Thessaloniki.
«Η κλιματική κατάρρευση άρχισε», υπογραμμίζει σήμερα ο γενικός γραμματέας του ΟΗΕ António Guterres σε ανακοίνωση που εξέδωσε αντιδρώντας στην ανακοίνωση για το παγκόσμιο ρεκόρ υψηλών θερμοκρασιών που καταγράφηκε στη διάρκεια του καλοκαιριού στο βόρειο ημισφαίριο.
