Emirati diplomat Lana Nusseibeh joins race for UN secretary general

Lana Nusseibeh, the former UAE ambassador to the UN who helped secure aid deliveries to Gaza, has entered the race to succeed António Guterres. Of Palestinian heritage, she has Palestine's endorsement. However, she faces criticism over the UAE's alleged role in arming Sudan's RSF, and Latin American and Caribbean states have objected, saying their region was nearing consensus for the post.
