Sherwin Bryce-Pease is the United Nations Bureau chief for South African Broadcast Corporation, SABC News. We have a wide ranging discussion about happenings at the United Nations, including debates and discussions at the Security Council about the deteriorating situation in Libya, why the dispute in Western Sahara is at a key inflection point, how the ongoing ebola outbreak in the Congo is being discussed at the UN, and why the Trump administration\'s Middle East peace Pplan will likely shape debates at the UN in the coming months.\\xa0

This episode is the third installment of my series of chats with in-house UN correspondents about what\'s buzzing in Turtle Bay. The idea is to touch base with a UN reporter every six weeks or so to take the temperature around the UN and learn what issues are driving the agenda.\\xa0

We kick off discussing the recent appearance of\\xa0 Ghassan Salame, the Secretary General\'a special envoy for Libya, before the Security Council. Sherwin Bryce-Pease was in the room during that briefing and he describes the scene.\\xa0\\xa0
