Uye wathetha nomongameli we-General Assembly, u-Volkan Bozkir, usosayensi wase-Turkey, owayecele ulwazi oluvela ku-Guterres.
Nge-11 kaJanuwari, amagosa e-UN athi uGuterres wazisa u-Bozkir ngeleta ngeenjongo zakhe kunye nomongameli wangoku weBhunga lezoKhuseleko, u-Tarek Ladeb, ongummeli we-Tunisia kwi-UN. UGuterres wazise iintloko zamaqela engingqi kunye nezopolitiko malunga neenjongo zakhe kwimpelaveki.
Amalungu eBhunga asisigxina-i-Bhritane, i-China, i-France, i-Russia ne-United States-bazakwenza ukhetho lwabo lwaziwe kwiinyanga ezizayo. Akukho mhla wokugqibela wesigqibo, esidinga kuphela ukuvunywa kweNdibano yeZizwe eziManyeneyo eyi-193 emva kwenyani. Inkqubo entsha yokukhetha unobhala-jikelele ichaziwe ngo-2015 INdibano yeZizwe eziManyeneyo isisombululo, esikhuthazwe luluntu kunye nomanyano lwamazwe angamalungu e-UN anyanzelisa ukuba kungabikho bucala kwinkqubo yokhetho yowama-2016, apho abasetyhini abasixhenxe kunye namadoda amathandathu bakhuphisana. Kwixesha elidlulileyo, ukhetho lukanobhala-jikelele belusenziwa ngokufihlakeleyo. Nangona kunjalo, i-US ne-Russia zezona zithathe izigqibo ekuthatheni isigqibo sokugqibela se-Guterres, esabhengezwa ngo-Okthobha u-2016, ngaphandle kokuvuleleka ngakumbi ngeengxoxo zikawonke-wonke kunye nothotho lwee-polls ze-straw kwiBhunga.
“Oko ndithatha i-ofisi, ndibenenyhweba yokusebenzela ukuguqula i #UN ukuhlangabezana neminqweno yamazwe angamalungu, ndizama isidima kunye nokuphila kwabantu, ngelixa ndiqinisekisa uzinzo lomhlaba wethu kwizizukulwana ezizayo, ”UGuterres ubhale kwileta yakhe esazisa amaqela ngeenjongo zakhe zokuba kubanjwe elinye ixesha. Iindaba zeBloomberg zaba zezokuqala ukunika ingxelo ngezicwangciso zikaGuterres. Akakhange athumele nto kubo.
Ukufuna kukaGuterres ikota yesibini kwakungalindelwanga, kuba akanamntu ucela umngeni kakhulu kweli nqanaba, nangona abanye abantu basetyhini kwibala le-UN babelindele ukubona ukuba uGuterres uzokwenzani, kuba akavumanga ukuveza kude kube ngoku iinjongo zakhe. Ixesha lesibini linokuba lula kulowo ukwimeko yokuhamba kukaMongameli Trump, owayegculela amaziko ehlabathi.
“Abasetyhini kuzakufuneka balinde,” utshilo usosiphathamandla waseLatin America uxelele iPassBlue, “ngaphandle kokuba iBhunga lezoKhuseleko kunye neNdibano yeZizwe eziManyeneyo zithathe isigqibo ngenye indlela”
Umlandeli kaTrump, uJoseph Biden, waziwa njengowamazwe aphesheya ngokwembono kunye namava owabhengeza ukuba uzakubuyisela i-US kwizivumelwano zamanye amazwe kunye neearhente apho uTrump arhoxile khona okanye agxeke kaninzi.
U-Biden uphinde wanyula i-diplomate ekhokelayo emsebenzini osandula ukungahoywa wommeli wase-US kwi-UN. Umthunywa ocetywayo, uLinda Thomas-Greenfield, ubelisekela likanobhala welizwe kwimicimbi yase-Afrika kwaye yingcali kulo mmandla, owathi wanyeliswa nguTrump. Isithethi se-UN, uStéphane Dujarric, uthe akazi ukuba uGuterres uthethile noThomas-Greenfield okoko kwabhengezwa ukutyunjwa kwakhe.
UGuterres, 70, uyidlalile indima yakhe ngobulumko nangocoselelo, u-Yasuhiro Ueki, unjingalwazi kwisebe lezifundo zehlabathi kwiYunivesithi yaseSophia eTokyo owayeligosa lezemicimbi yezopolitiko kunye nosekela sisithethi se-UN, utshilo kudliwanondlebe nge-imeyile noPassBlue.
“Ukujonga nje amathuba okuba uGuterres anyulwe kwakhona. . . Akenzanga nalutshaba phakathi kwamalungu asisigxina, ”u-Ueki ubhale. Owona mceli mngeni yayinguTrump. UGuterres ugcine umgama olungileyo kuye. UGuterres khange aphikisane ne-US okanye amanye amalungu asisigxina kwimiba emininzi yomgaqo-nkqubo. Kutheni umcel'umngeni ngoku?
“Abaceli-mngeni abalandelayo baya kwenza ingxolo yabo xa kuphela ixesha lesibini likaGuterres. Kulindeleke ukuba bavele eLatin America, kwaye ndiqinisekile ukuba uninzi lwabasetyhini luzakube lubangisana ngesi sikhundla kwixesha elizayo. ”
Phambi kokuba uGuterres anyulwe ngo-Okthobha u-2016 njengelandela elonyuliweyo lika-Ban Ki-moon, iinzame ezihlanganisiweyo zenziwa luluhlu lwemibutho yoluntu ukuba kubanjwe owasetyhini njengonobhala-jikelele okokuqala. NgeGuterres ekwisimo esomeleleyo sokuphinda anyulwe kulo nyaka, iphulo elifanayo alikaveli, nangona imibutho yabasetyhini ingakumbi isasebenza kulo mbandela. I-Yurophu yaseNtshona inomdla wokugcina uGuterres emsebenzini, nangona eminye imimandla icinga ukuba inkokeli ye-UN elandelayo kufuneka ivele kwiindawo zayo zehlabathi.
Omnye umbutho ongekho phantsi kukarhulumente, iZiko laseMelika loPhando lwaBasetyhini, livelisa "ingxelo yonyaka" yonyaka eGuterres-leyo ye-2020 izokugqitywa kungekudala.
"Ngeendaba zokuba uGuterres uzakufuna ikota yesibini, siyamkhuthaza ukuba aphindaphinde ukuphumeza ukulingana ngokwesini njengelitye lembombo lephulo lakhe kunye nokujolisa phambili kwikota yesibini," uLyric Thompson, umlawuli omkhulu womgaqo-nkqubo kunye nokukhuthaza, utshilo kwingxelo kwiPassBlue malunga neendaba ngeGuterres.
Ubhale wathi, "Apho athe wenza khona inkqubela phambili ekuqhubekiseni phambili ukulingana ngokwesini kwinkqubo ye-UN kwaye ebengummeli obonakalayo wamalungelo abasetyhini kunye nesini kwimpendulo kunye nokubuyiselwa kwe-COVID-19," kwikota yesibini, kufuneka agxile ekwandiseni izibonelelo zesini ukulingana kunye noxanduva lokuphendula ngokunyhashwa kwamalungelo oluntu abasetyhini, ngaphakathi kwinkqubo nakwihlabathi jikelele.
“Oku kufanele ukuba ibe lilitye lembombo lephulo lakhe kwaye kugxilwe kuye kunyaka wakhe wokugqibela wekota yokuqala, kubandakanya ukukhokela igqiza le-UN kwimisitho yeQonga lokuLingana lezeMbali [ngokunxulumene neKhomishini yoBume baBasetyhini] kule ntwasahlobo nehlobo, sithumela ulindelo oluqinileyo lokuba ukusukela eofisini yakhe ukuhla, onke amaziko noorhulumente kulindeleke ukuba benze izibophelelo zotshintsho eziza kuthi zichazwe esidlangalaleni kwisithuba seminyaka emihlanu. ”
I-Human Rights Watch iphendule kwiindaba malunga noGuterres, isithi kwingxelo, ngokuyinxenye: “Ukuba uqinisekisiwe, akufuneki anikwe ixesha elitsha kwisitya sesilivere. Inkqubo kufuneka ibandakanye abagqatswa abaninzi abathi thaca esidlangalaleni izicwangciso zekhonkrithi zokuphucula i-UN, kubandakanya nendlela yokuqinisa iintsika zamalungelo oluntu ngexesha apho abanye oorhulumente besebenza ngenkuthalo ukuyonakalisa. Ukusebenza kukaGuterres kumalungelo oluntu kule minyaka mine idlulileyo kuxubiwe, ubukhulu becala kubonakala ngokungafuni ukugxeka esidlangalaleni oorhulumente abaxhaphaza amalungelo kunye nokukhetha uthethathethwano oluvaliweyo. ”
Ngokuphathelele inyathelo elilandelayo kwinkqubo, isithethi sikaBozkir, uBrenden Varma, ubhale kwisishwankathelo seendaba ngoJan. baqale inkqubo yokucela abagqatswa kwisikhundla sikaNobhala Jikelele ngeleta edibeneyo ebhekiswe kuwo onke amaLungu amaLungu. ” U-Bozkir uthethe nomlingane wakhe weBhunga lezoKhuseleko, u-Ambassador Ladeb, ngomnxeba nge-11 kaJanuwari kwaye uzakudibana naye ngomso ngalo mbandela; Nje ukuba bathumele ileta kumazwe angamalungu e-UN, ziya kunikwa ezinye iinkcukacha, utshilo uVarma.
Ebuzwa kwingcaciso yakhe ukuba uGuterres kunye nabanye abagqatswa abaza kudliwanondlebe namazwe angamalungu, uVarma uthe kwakusekutsha kakhulu ukuxoxa ngeenkcukacha malunga nenkqubo. Akucaci, umzekelo, ukuba kuya kubakho abanye abagqatswa. U-Varma uqaphele ukuba kwinkqubo ye-2016, xa amazwe angamalungu evumelana ngokuba "nenkqubo ecace gca nebandakanya wonke umntu," umgqatswa owayesesikhundleni akazange abandakanyeke. Ke "akukho nto ibekwe elityeni malunga neenkqubo ngqo okanye imihla," utshilo kwisishwankathelo, esithi "oku kuya kugqitywa kwaye kwaziswe amazwe angamaLungu."

INTO ONOKUYITHATHA KWELI NQAKU:
- “Since assuming office, I have had the privilege of working towards the reform of the #UN to meet the aspirations of member states, striving for the dignity and the well-being of people, while ensuring the sustainability of our planet for future generations,” Guterres wrote in his letter notifying the parties of his intention for another term.
- Guterres's bid for a second term was not unexpected, since he has no serious challengers for the job at this point, although some women in the UN arena were waiting to see what Guterres would do, since he has refused to reveal until now his intentions.
- A new process selecting the secretary-general was outlined in a 2015 General Assembly resolution, spurred by civil society and a coalition of UN member states pushing for more transparency in the 2016 selection process, in which seven women and six men competed.
