Two new NewsBank Special Reports are now available to provide current and background research information on topics of interest.

People in the News – the U.N. Secretary General contains information on the transition of power from Kofi Annan, the outgoing Secretary General, to Ban Ki-moo, the incoming Secretary General.

The Report includes biographical information on these two figures as well as articles on their careers and accomplishments. Background information on the United Nations is also included in this Report.

As Ban Ki-moo takes over for Kofi Annan, articles on his position and actions will be included in this Report to help keep you current on important U.N. issues and events.
