Kofi Annan interviewed at the Graduate Institute 

Kofi Annan was a gentleman as usual, the interviewer was was an impatient, aggressive person who is clearly not listening to this wise man. God bless him.

I think next time the interviewer should relax and take her time to ask constructive questions. The man was very weak at his age and can't answer all the unnecessary questions the woman asked him. But he is very quick witted in answering the woman questions. God should protect his soul for us and may his soul rest in perfect peace . Thanks for his phenomenal works to this world.

Zeinab, this is unfair, one-sided, unnecessarily aggressive and unrelenting artillery of attacks on an 80-year old man who is clearly not as healthy as he once was. An 80 year old man!! Why spend most the time on Rwanda and Bosnia like a ruthless bloodhound that would not allow the old man to even finish his answers. Do those two events, as bad as they were, define his entire career and life? I am certain he has answered those questions several times. You did the same thing with Trevor Noah (asking narrowly-scoped attack questions BUT not listening to the answers). Thankfully, Trevor -- young, smart, and agile as he was -- held his own and made you look pathetic, puerile, and totally unprofessional. Perhaps this program should be called "hardTALK" where YOU the interviewer TALK and ATTACK, and the guest is supposed to shut up and listen. In which case, you might as well put a statue in the chair and continue bashing it to death. Shame on you and your producers. This is NOT journalism. This is demented. It's as if YOU have a personal axe to grind and serious problems listening. SHAME on you!!!

The spirit of a leader you are Kofi u Africa is proud of you

Holy God, we thank You for giving us great hope through Christ Jesus. Give us strength to ensure as we wait for the day when we join You in the eternal Holy City. We pray this in the name of the Lamb who makes this possible. AMEN...

Kofi Annan was such a great example of a truly distinguished leadership in the United Nations

LET HIM FINISH WHEN HE IS ANSWERING A QUESTION OH MY GOODNESS

Koffi president for Ghana 🇨🇲

Rest in perfect peace elder

This reporter is revolting! Such a lack of journalistic skill in every possible facet of the profession.

People and leadership 😮

Apparently her interview technique is to be as aggressive and confrontational as possible. Aggressive with one of the kindest and most gentle diplomat ever. She should be ashamed of herself.

RIP

your attack on Kofi Annan was shameful when you never let him finish his answers. You repeatedly asked questions about Rwanda and Bosnia trying to blame him for those genocide when he repeatedly told you about the existence of TWO UNs! And how he was not given the manpower by the UN's Secuity Council. He explained how UN Security Council resolutions are put in action by the secretary general, how he was not given the manpower to stop those genocides by the Council. All you seek is the limelight not fairness or "enlightenment"

❤❤❤❤

But if. Koffi president for Ghana🇨🇲

What is happening in the United States also and the others

This leader is intelligent the World Peace can't be on one's hànds only

Attempt to make a spectacle out of Kofi Annan?! Shame on you BBC.

Is this differemce makes talks hard? Name solid for diffrrence or recognition? How many or how mch? Should be uncountanle and immeasureable. I break unit into scaled units for business. Business to balance against still.

Is it Structural Realism leads to Structural Genocide /Ethnic Cleansing ?

this woman obviously thinks her questions are more important than the Secretary General's answers... scoop: they aren't

The interviewer should have patients

Badawi was too differential towards Annan.Africans should snap out of this attitude of handling 'leaders' with kid gloves.Perhaps because she is African like myself.

Once again, Zeinab Badawi shows that she is a terrible journalist and person. She's always so angry about every single issue that her questions are unprofessional, unprepared and rude. Once again, an interviewee ends up schooling her and teaching her to be more humble and professional.

Badawi was right on the money about Africa being treated differently (Kivu violence and Rwanda genocide).I respected Koffi Annan but he failed Africa.Period.

Kofi,where,s the Mercedes,if we only knew where the car is Kofi would go up in my estimation. You were the token black at the UN, hope you dont think it was because you were the best.
