Michelle Bachelet's candidacy to lead the UN Secretary-General faces a critical moment. Former ambassadors on the foreign policy advisory council have questioned the government's lack of diplomatic outreach, while other candidates—such as Argentina's Rafael Grossi and Costa Rica's Rebeca Grynspan—are advancing with more active international campaigns and key endorsements. From New York, the Chilean mission led by Paula Narváez is pressing to accelerate the process, but caution prevails in Santiago, raising doubts about the viability of the candidacy in a highly competitive global arena. The UN's recent official opening of the process compels Chile to define a clearer strategy if it wants to ensure a leading role in this historic election. #MichelleBachelet #UN #SecretaryGeneral #Diplomacy #ChileInTheWorld #ForeignPolicy #RafaelGrossi #RebecaGrynspan #MinistryOfForeignAffiliation #Publimicro
