Candidature à la tête de l’ONU : Macky Sall écrit à Diomaye Faye
Macky Sall sent a letter to President Diomaye Faye, which was received at the Palace on February 9. The newspaper Le Quotidien, which broke the news, reports that the former head of state, in his correspondence, informs his successor of his intention to submit his candidacy for the position of Secretary-General of the United Nations, "encouraged," he emphasizes, "by certain leaders of friendly countries around the world as well as by leaders of international organizations."
Through this initiative, the newspaper of the Avenir Communication group continues, Macky Sall "was therefore seeking the support of his country and its President for this candidacy." The fact is that without the support of his country and its leaders, Le Quotidien suggests, the former President confided to sources that he would not enter the race to succeed Antonio Guterres.
The newspaper reports that "to date, President Diomaye Faye has not deemed it necessary to respond to his predecessor's letter."
Macky Sall was in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, for the African Union summit this weekend. The question of an African candidate for the UN Secretary-General position was expected to be a key topic of discussion. However, the issue was postponed to a future meeting of heads of state via videoconference.
