Antonio Guterres sworn-in as next U.N. secretary general - UPI.com
UPI reports: "Former Portuguese leader Antonio Guterres was sworn-in Monday as the
ninth secretary general of the United Nations, officially succeeding Ban
Ki-moon after a decade of the South Korean's leadership.
Guterres was chosen as the next secretary general in October, and will
formally assume the role on Jan. 1. But the swearing-in ceremony was
held Monday.
During the ceremony, Guterres spoke about his vision for U.N. leadership
in a changing international landscape."
Comment: I'm somewhat reluctant to embrace the idea of the UN as an emerging world government that plays an active role in the end times. I think it's a useful debating club right now but it's not very powerful. That may change in the future, so it's important to keep up with trends and developments.
