Feature: Drapes pulled open, hourglass resting on table, UN Security Council rings the changes

The United Nations Security Council meeting on the situation in Haiti is held in the Security Council chamber, with drapes pulled open, at the UN headquarters in New York, on April 3, 2019. UN Security Council looked and acted differently Wednesday with two visible changes -- perennially closed drapes were pulled open and an hourglass was placed on the table in front of the council president, German UN ambassador Christoph Heusgen, who wished to have the chamber "enlightened."
