Another candidate has been nominated for UN Secretary-General, not Viktor Orbán.

Turkey has officially nominated Feridun Sinirlioğlu, the Secretary General of the OSCE, for the UN Secretary-General position. This announcement follows a recent Security Council vote that did not yield a clear frontrunner among candidates. Sinirlioğlu's extensive diplomatic experience was highlighted by President Erdoğan in his nomination letter. The number of candidates has now risen to eight, with the Security Council responsible for selecting a nominee, requiring nine votes for official endorsement. Recent votes showed Rebeca Grynspan and Rafael Grossi as leading candidates, but opposition from permanent members remains unclear. Orbán Viktor has not been officially nominated despite speculation surrounding his candidacy.
