L’ex primo ministro australiano Kevin Rudd si è candidato come prossimo Segretario Generale dell’ONU
The former prime minister Kevin Rudd has put himself forward for the role of United Nations secretary general, Julie Bishop has confirmed.
The foreign affairs minister said the cabinet will now have to consider whether to support Rudd’s candidacy for the UN’s top job.
The Labor opposition has lent its support to Rudd, despite his tumultuous history of being toppled by the party in June 2010, going on to serve as foreign affairs minister and then returning as prime minister in June 2013 before losing the September 2013 election.
Bishop told Sky News on Monday that Rudd had requested that the Australian government nominate him for the role.
