Greece assumes UN Security Council presidency amid global crises

Greece has taken over the rotating presidency of the UN Security Council for October, a procedural but symbolically significant move as the body grapples with multiple international crises and the ongoing selection process for the next UN Secretary-General. The presidency will shape the Council's agenda and priorities for the month, though its practical impact is limited by the permanent members' veto power. The timing underscores heightened diplomatic activity at the UN as member states jockey over the leadership transition.
