Post at the UN
Annalena Baerbock reports in “Sex and the City” style from New York
In a few days, Annalena Baerbock will start her new position at the UN in New York. With a video in the style of the series “Sex and the City” she shows her new life.
The nomination of Annalena Baerbockzur President of the UN General Assembly did not run without background noises, but now she is there: a few days before her official take office, the former Federal Foreign Minister reports with a video from New York. Your appearance in it reminds great reminds of the series “Sex and the City”.
Baerbock is casually dressed in jeans, blazer and high heels. She waves one of the iconic yellow taxis – just like Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw in the cult series. Baerbock gets in, writes something in a notebook. It rises again at the main building of the United Nations in Manhattan. The song “Empire State of Mind” by Alicia Keys and Jay-Z runs in the background of the video.

“Are you ready?” Writes the Greens politician. The Insta clip shows: Baerbock is ready for the Big Apple. At the beginning of June, she was elected President of the United Nations General Assembly, and her new task is officially starting on Tuesday. She takes over the office of Philémon Yang, the former Prime Minister of Cameroon.
Annalena Baerbock’s nomination was highly controversial
Baerbock had originally announced that after she left as Foreign Minister, she had wanted to take care of her family. But then she was put up with the UN as an applicant for the post – and thus booted the experienced diplomat Helga Schmid, whose candidacy was actually already decided.
The 44-year-old was sharply criticized for this procedure. “It is an insolence to replace the best and most internationally experienced German diplomat with a discontinued model,” said the former German ambassador at the United Nations, Christoph Heusgen.
Your video from New York is not well received everywhere either. Some users accuse their vanity, compare their clip with the staging of influencers on Instagram. Others wish Baerbock every success and a good knack for their new tasks.
