Hi.
Good news coming from UNESCO - Bulgarian Irina Bokova is the next
Director-General.
She ran an Internet campaign, as well, and if we want ISOC to enhance
relations with UNESCO, I'd be happy to help.
Best,
Veni
PARIS - UNESCO says a career diplomat from Bulgaria has defeated a
controversial Egyptian candidate to head the United Nations agency for
culture and education.
The chairman of UNESCO's executive board says Bulgaria's ambassador to
France, Irina Bokova, has beaten longtime Egyptian Culture Minister
Farouk Hosny in secret balloting.
UNESCO's press office says Bokova won 31 to 27 Tuesday in a suspenseful
fifth round.
