The new secretary- general of the United Nations is set to be appointed by the General Assembly on October 13, General Assembly president Peter Thomson said in his statement on Tuesday.

UNITED NATIONS (Sputnik) — Last week, the UN Security Council recommended to the General Assembly that Portugal's former Prime Minister Antonio Guterres be appointed next UN chief for a term from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2021.

"I also have the honour to inform you that the date for the appointment of the Secretary-General under agenda item 113 has been set for Thursday 13 October 2016, at 10.00 a.m. in the General Assembly Hall," Thomson said.
