The race to find a new leader for the United Nations is heating up.
Leaders at the UN just finished their fourth round of secret voting. These votes are like a straw poll—a way to see who has the most support before the official final decision is made.
Reports coming out show that Rebeca Grynspan is now in the lead. She has been working hard to gain support from other countries, and it looks like that effort is starting to pay off.
Right now, the race seems to be coming down to Grynspan and one other person, though the final choice is not set in stone yet.
For those who do not follow the UN closely, the Secretary-General is the person who runs the organization. They are the top diplomat and the main voice for the UN on the world stage. Choosing a new one is a long, complicated process that happens behind closed doors.
Even though Grynspan is currently in the lead, the process is still ongoing. The countries on the UN Security Council will keep talking and voting until they agree on one person.
We will keep you updated as more news comes in about who will lead the UN next.
