Overview
- Annalena Baerbock posted a Nov. 3 Instagram video filmed in Central Park that echoes the opening voiceover of the TV series Gossip Girl.
- In the clip she notes that the committee season has started, linking the message to ongoing work in the General Assembly’s six main committees.
- Her caption highlights that diplomats from all 193 member states are drafting texts that can later be adopted by the General Assembly.
- Reactions were divided, with some users praising the relatable tone and others criticizing the staging as inappropriate or self‑focused.
- Baerbock, who moved to New York in September 2025 to serve as UN General Assembly president, has used similar stylized posts before and argues they offer behind‑the‑scenes access for younger audiences.
