The 2026 UN Secretary-General selection is a geopolitical stress test for multilateralism, occurring as the US systematically withdraws support from key UN bodies, turning its largest funder into a selective, transactional participant.

The Great Unwinding: How Norway's $80 Billion Signal Exposes the Cracks in America's Financial Empire
