现年48岁的阿联酋常任代表拉娜·努塞贝近日作为迟到候选人进入联合国秘书长竞选1。努塞贝因其在担任联合国大使期间协调向加沙提供人道主义援助而获得国际关注,并已获得巴勒斯坦国的支持1。美国政府国家安全顾问布雷特·麦古克表示支持努塞贝,指出阿联酋按照联合国数据已成为全球向加沙提供最多人道主义援助的大国1。
然而,努塞贝的竞选面临重大障碍1。人权组织强烈批评阿联酋被指向苏丹快速支援部队(RSF)提供武器,而该组织已被美国政府指控参与种族灭绝1。2024年1月联合国专家小组报告显示,关于阿联酋向RSF走私武器的指控具有可信度1。努塞贝曾代表阿联酋否认向RSF领导人提供武器的报道1。
当前秘书长竞选中有6名候选人,其中哥斯达黎加的丽贝卡·格林斯潘在第六轮投票中领先,但面临安理会两个常任理事国的反对1。现任秘书长古特雷斯定于年底卸任1。
Rana Naseef, a 48-year-old Emirati diplomat of Palestinian descent, has entered the race to become the next UN secretary general as a late candidate 1. Born in Abu Dhabi in 1978, Naseef gained international attention during her tenure as a UN ambassador for coordinating humanitarian assistance to Gaza 1. She has secured the support of the State of Palestine 1.
However, her candidacy faces significant obstacles amid allegations that the United Arab Emirates has supplied weapons to Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a militia group that the U.S. government has accused of committing genocide 1. While Naseef has denied reports of the UAE providing weapons to RSF leadership, a UN expert panel report from January 2024 found credible evidence of UAE weapons smuggling to the group 1. In her favor, Brett McGurk, the U.S. National Security Advisor, has endorsed her candidacy, noting that the UAE has emerged as the world's leading nation in providing humanitarian aid to Gaza according to UN data 1.
The current UN secretary general race includes six candidates 1. The sixth round of voting took place on October 16, with Costa Rica's Rebecca Greenspan leading the field, though she faces opposition from two permanent members of the Security Council 1. Current Secretary General António Guterres is scheduled to step down at year's end 1.
