A campaign group petition is calling on UN member states to block Lana Nusseibeh's candidacy for UN Secretary-General, arguing the UAE is implicated in atrocities in Sudan's Darfur region. Nusseibeh is the UAE's senior diplomat at the UN and a leading contender for the top job. Critics say her appointment would undermine the organisation's credibility while Abu Dhabi faces accusations over its role in the Sudan war.
