Inside, with speeches and machinations and carefully deployed elbows, those who administer the world persist in their search for the elusive path to peace. In the walled-off compound of the United Nations at the easternmost end of Manhattan, north of the towering Secretariat Building and the majestic General Assembly Hall, sits a quiet patch of wooded land that exists in placid contrast to the global cauldron of diplomacy and national interests a few hundred feet away. Around every bend are tiny rewards — a copse of trees with the Olympic rings poking out, a tiny reflecting-pool shrine that exhorts people to “remember here those who gave their lives for peace.”

Bob Menendez, D-N.J. Each will test Biden and his administration.
