FOUR candidates to be the next secretary-general of the United Nations will be interviewed for the job this week as Antonio Guterres’s reign comes to an end next year.

Chile’s former president Michelle Bachelet — one of two women and one of three from Latin America — will be the first to face ambassadors from the UN’s 193 member nations during a three-hour question-and-answer session tomorrow.

Ms Bachelet will be followed by UN nuclear chief Rafael Mariano Grossi of Argentina.
