On
Cameroon UN
Bachelet Has
Not a Single
Word In Speech
Name Checking
35 Countries

UN GATE,
September 9 – The
degree to
which Antonio
Guterres has corrupted
the entire UN
system, on
Cameroon and UN
bribery by
China and
other issues,
was shown
again on September
9 by
the Human
Rights Council statement
of Michele
Bachelet in
Geneva.
Despite
the mounting
killings and
periodic
professions of
concern from corners of
the UN system
while the
effects
of Guterres'
cover up for
favors has to be
imbolden 37
year president
Paul Biya, Bachelet's
long speech
did not
mention Cameroon
even once. Not
once.
The
promotional
material
by her publicly
paid
staff hyped
"In addition
to an
important
section on
climate
change, the
statement
below contains
specific
references to
the following:
Burkina Faso,
Mali, Niger,
Canada,
Colombia,
Bolivia,
Paraguay,
Brazil,
Bahamas,
Dominica,
South Pacific
States,
Philippines,
Ukraine,
Russian
Federation,
Sudan,
Zimbabwe,
Tanzania,
Burundi, South
Africa, China,
Hong Kong,
India,
Pakistan,
Myanmar,
Cambodia,
Afghanistan,
Syria,
Occupied
Palestinian
Territory,
Algeria,
United States,
Mexico,
Guatemala,
Honduras,
European
Union, and
Kazakhstan."
And not
a single word on
Cameroon.
Totally
corrupt. Bachelet
even mentioned
"press freedom" while
having done
nothing on
Guterres'
having roughed
up and banned
433 days and
counting from
the UN Inner
City Press, as
it asks him
about Cameroon
and UN bribery
by China. Disgusting.
After
Cameroon
imposed life
sentences and
massive fines
on Ayuk
Tabe and nine
others, for
days UN
Secretary
General
Antonio
Guterres
refused to
answer the
written questions
and request
for comment
from Inner
City Press
which Guterres
has banned
from the UN
for 433
days, now
issuing
Kafka-esque
denials by his
new Global
Censor Melissa
Fleming, see
below.
It turns out
that the UN,
its UN News
and also
Media Accreditation
and
Liaison Unit
are so far
worse under
Melissa Fleming
than before. On
August 30
Inner City
Press was
without
reasoning
barred from
entering to cover the
UN General Assembly week
which for example
Biya's CRTV is
allowed into.
Past
4 pm on
Friday, August
30 the UN
issued a
denial of
accreditation
with no
reasoning
other than
that
accreditation
had previously
been revoked:
"From:
malu at un dot
org
Date: Fri, Aug
30, 2019 at
4:23 PM
Subject: U.N.
eAccreditation
request for
Matthew Lee
Ref # M5413398
has been
declined
To: Inner City
Press:
Greetings
Matthew Lee
from Inner
City
Press,
Your media
accreditation
request, with
reference no:
M5413398, has
been declined
for the
following
reason: Media
accreditation
was withdrawn
on 17 August
2018."
This is
Kafka-esque,
and corrupt.
We will have
more, much
more, on this.
More
here.
