As compared with the first round, Ferrero-Waldner gained two votes, Farouk Hosny, Ivonne Baki and Ina Marciulionyte gained one vote each, and Alexander Yakovenko dropped four votes. The was one blank ballot on the first round, and none on the second.
I got this information from three independent sources.
Press coverage of the second round:
- UNESCO fails to produce new Director-General on 2nd voting
- Unesco fails again to elect new head
- UNESCO fails - again - to elect new director-general
- Unesco Elections: Controversial Egyptian Farouk Hosni set to win
- Ирина Бокова остана трета при втория тур за избор на директор на ЮНЕСКО (Bulgarian)
- Литва отозвала кандидатуру И.Марчюлените на пост директора ЮНЕСКО
It is obvious that none of the existing candidates enjoy a wide support, as should be the case.
ReplyDeleteA personallity like Mounir Bouchenaki, the former Deputy Director General, should present himself and submit candidature
Yes ! But he can not do it alone, he needs support from one or more Member States...
