Europeans push candidates for UNDP. We reported last week the claim by outgoing UNDP head Malloch Brown that his successor would be chosen in an open process. Now, however, three European countries are pushing their own candidates for this position third in the UN hierarchy. The names announced in press articles yesterday include Valerie Amos, Hilde Johnson and Jan Pronk. They are all current or former development ministers, in the UK, Norway and The Netherlands respectively. Thanks to Brian, an active contributor to our new Forum, for this tip. He comments "Europe is determined to keep the UNDP job". Alex Wilks ~ February 17, 2005
