LOS FUNCIONARIOS de la ONU formularon un voto de censura a sus dirigentes, y éste finalmente prosperó, aunque su secretario general, Kofi Annan, se ha librado. De momento.
A union representing United Nations (search) staff has voted "no confidence" in the world body's senior management.

It is the first time in the labor organization's history that it has cast such a vote, which is largely symbolic and has no effect over any U.N. officials' jobs. The vote was tallied behind closed doors Friday afternoon at U.N. headquarters in New York.

The move was in response to a series of scandals plaguing the United Nations.

Union members said the vote wasn't directed at Secretary-General Kofi Annan (search), but at the management of several top officials. In fact, the head of the labor organization said members actually did have confidence in Annan himself.
