Men Not Welcome as Next UN Secretary General

NEW YORK, April 24 (C-Fam) The race to select the next UN Secretary-General of the United Nations is well underway. All the frontrunners are women, and they are well-known abortion advocates.

Western-backed feminist organizations are lobbying countries to select a woman to the lead the United Nations when the term of the current UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres ends next year. At the recent UN Commission on the Status of Women, forty-five member states agreed that the UN Security Council should “consider nominating women as candidates.” The final candidate must then be approved by the General Assembly.

Here is a quick look at the top three candidates the UN Security Council is being asked to consider for the position and where they stand on abortion and gender ideology.

The undisputed front-runner for the UN’s top job is Michelle Bachelet, a two-term president of Chile who led the UN agency for Women as well as the UN human rights office. She is a known champion of abortion rights and gender ideology and has been described as the Hillary Clinton of Latin America.

As president of Chile, she successfully shepherded a multi-year campaign to legalize abortion in Chile. As head of UN Women and the highest UN human rights official she streamlined abortion promotion in the UN bureaucracy as well as the promotion of transgender rights, including self-identification.

She issued a scathing attack against the U.S. Supreme Court after the 2022 Dobbs decision. In that case the court declared abortion was an issue that each American state should legislate democratically and not a constitutional right. Bachelet called the decision a “huge blow to women’s human rights and gender equality” and said that “abortion is firmly rooted in international human rights law and is at the core of women and girls’ autonomy.”

Given her track-record Bachelet is the preferred candidate of the feminist left. Bachelet has failed to address human rights abuses in China, likely a calculated move necessary to avoid a veto from China in the Security Council. Even leftwing supporters called her work there “whitewashing.”

The runner-up is Mia Mottley, the current prime minister of Barbados. Barbados is one of the few countries in the Caribbean that allows abortion. She has expressed support for LGBT issues and her government is working with EU Commission Ursula von der Leyen to expand access to reproductive health commodities, including abortion and contraception, in the Caribbean and Africa.

Another significant candidate with experience promoting abortion through the United Nations is Rebecca Grynspan. The former vice-president of Costa Rica has held several leadership positions in the UN bureaucracy. As assistant UN Secretary-General she interfered in the internal political debates about abortion in Nicaragua. She openly opposed a law to protect children in the womb under all circumstances.

The candidates are being discussed earlier than in previous campaigns for Secretary-General. This is by design. A vote on the next Secretary General is not expected in the General Assembly until October 2026. Feminists have openly said they want to put pressure on the Security Council to nominate a woman. Formal and informal interviews in the Security Council and General Assembly will likely take place next spring.

The Secretary General is picked by region. It is now Latin America’s turn to choose.

US out of the UN, and the UN out of the US.

Relocate it to the Gaza strip, since they love the “Palestinians”...

I think the noble UN should strive to not be speciesist: better to appoint a non-human. A gorilla could do a creditable job as secretary-general.

Not a good idea.

But actually, not a bad ideal altogether, IF...

All the countries of the world had women leading them too.

Chances are that with women in control of the whole world, that there would be a lot fewer wars and and virtually no terrorism.

But, the women would also have to stop killing the children in the womb.

“Chances are that with women in control of the whole world, that there would be a lot fewer wars and and virtually no terrorism.”

There would be FAR more wars, invasions, and terrorism. Women can be emotionally charged nutcases who let violent people, men and women, do as they please as long they “are my FRIIIEEENNDS!”

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.
And even fewer respect the United Nations.
Who the hell wants third-world “leadership” right at our front door?
Oh, forgot, we already are being led by the KKK-rat party.

I can remember the old cartoons. The evil villain would destroy the U.N. building with a destructive ray blast. Many would applaud that now...

"Taking turns" to find a leader for a global body... or DEI... which is actually worse?

Obviously they're doing both now, but it is an interesting competition for which method is more moronic.

Dolphins, I saw Dolphins. Don’t buy into the erect walking two legged land animal trope. Transitioning mammals , banana eaters, every one of them.
