This report @dwnews features the #UNSG candidacy of @rosaliaarteaga supported by @Forward_world_ but not (yet) recognized by the UN. Even then, symbolic acts are necessary & required to achieve change commented our ED @AndreasBummel https://t.co/j9b0yKdgOz

We're at a loss for words.

Guterres:
Civil space has been restricted, media freedom have been restricted in pandemic.

[yet he's said nothing on the 6+ civil society candidates for UN secgen being ignored by GA/SC presidents, including the P5: Britain, US, China, Russia, France]

UNSG vows for more civic space and more freedom.
But (there's always a but in the #UN) @UN_PGA hasn't responded to our letter and has yet to address the fact that different civil society candidates were presented and ignored.

Priorities are clear. That's for sure.

@Forward_world_ @Venzon_Andrea @rosaliaarteaga @UNAUK @pass_blue @Fillionsteph10 @AJEnglish @PoliticoRyan @PaulaBertol @RichardGowan1 @UN @1for7billion the president of the UN general assembly commits to transparency & inclusivity in the selection process

We call him out on it: we haven’t received ANY answer to our letterS on the @Forward_world_ candidate

He deletes the tweet. That’s the type of transparency the @UN is about?

[Forward @Forward_world_]

How can you stand by transparency and inclusivity if:

1. You haven’t replied to our candidacy letter. 2. You haven’t accepted a former President, highly qualified, people-backed, state endorsed candidate.

How? This MUST end.

[Annalena Baerbock @UN_PGA]

I'm committed to ensuring that the selection & appointment process of the @UN Secretary-General remains guided by the principles of transparency & inclusivity. Join the informal interactive dialogue with the candidate incumbent @antonioguterres [LIVE NOW]. https://t.co/r2B3ux3UQ2
