Maria Khrenova.  Maria?

Question:  Hi, hi.  Hi, Steph.  So, yeah, I was… I had a question regarding Belarus.  You mentioned the protests there, but I do have a comment on the election itself, because the opposition claims that there were massive frauds and that the election results would be quite different.  There… was the UN in touch with international observers maybe and in your opinion, how credible are these elections?

Spokesman:  Listen, we… I have no further comment on the election.  As you, I think, we’ve been telling you guys, we had no involvement in the organizing of the election or coordinating observers or so on.  So, we have no… at this point, we have no mandate to make a comment on the handling of the mechanics, shall we say, of the election.

That is not stopping the Secretary‑General from being concerned about what we’re seeing, the reports of the post‑election protests, the violence that we saw in Minsk and other cities, which is of concern to him.

Обратим внимание на её  прошлогодний тест по знанию ООН.

Насколько хорошо вы знаете ООН?

Посмотрим один из интересных вопросов.

Как и во всякой организации, в ООН свой лексикон. Новичку бывает непросто разобраться в большом количестве аббревиатур и профессионализмов. Например, "послать в синьку" (put in blue), то есть выложить готовый проект резолюции на рассмотрение перед голосованием. А что значит "взломать тишину" (break silence)?
