Sandinista priest to preside over UN
“The United Nations has elected Maryknoll priest and former Nicaraguan foreign minister Fr Miguel D’Escoto as the next president of its General Assembly. Ireland.com reports that within hours of his election, Miguel D’Escoto Brockmann, who served as foreign minister in the Sandinista administration that ruled Nicaragua from 1979-90, said he wanted to work with the United States and other countries.”
The call for a new international organization to take the place of the defunct UN, aptly labeled “The United Democratic League“, couldn’t be any more relevent and timely than now. KGS
