 In outside South Africa now, United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres has been appointed for second five-year term by the 193-member General Assembly. The 15-member Security Council earlier this month recommended the General Assembly re-appoint Guterres, his second term, a start on January 1, 2022. Guterres succeeded Ban Ki-moon in January 2017 just weeks before Donald Trump became U.S. President. Now, much of Guterres' first term was focused on Locate and Trump, who questioned the value of the United Nations and multilateralism without seeking or accepting any instructions in regard to the performance of my duties from any government or other authority external to the organization. I will give it my all to ensure the blossoming of trust between and among nations, large and small, to build bridges and to engage relentlessly in confidence-building. I will also seek to inspire hope that we can turn things around that the impossible might be possible. The attitude is never to give up. This is not idealistic or utopian, but grounded in knowledge of history when big transformations occurred and guided by the fundamental belief in the inherent goodness of people. That breakthroughs are possible when we expect it the least and against all odds. That is my unwavering commitment. Your job is as difficult as it is important. We are counting on you to lead, and we are counting on you to use your voice when it matters most. All of us hope that the next five years are more peaceful, secure, and prosperous than the last.
