'Hongaarse oud-premier Orbán op Trumps lijstje voor nieuwe VN-chef'

The Trump administration is reportedly considering Viktor Orbán for the UN Secretary-General position, supported by Russia and China. The search for António Guterres' successor is ongoing, with a new informal vote scheduled in the Security Council. Orbán is seen as a strong conservative candidate due to his views on migration and NGOs. However, there is increasing pressure for a female candidate, with Lana Nusseibeh entering the race and two leading candidates being women from Latin America. Orbán's candidacy follows his recent electoral defeat in Hungary, where Péter Magyar won, promising to address corruption.
