NewzThe United Arab Emirates has nominated diplomat Lana Nusseibeh to be the next United Nations Secretary-General following six inconclusive rounds of Security Council voting that resulted in a deadlock.
Nusseibeh is described as a well-regarded Emirati official who is considered more likely to secure crucial support from the United States. If successful, her appointment would mark a historic milestone as she would become the first female secretary-general and the first person of Palestinian heritage to hold the position.
