UNITED NATIONS
GATE, Dec 2
– Inner City
Press on 5 July 2018
was banned from
entering the UN, the
day after it filed a
criminal complaint
against UN Security
for physically
removing it from
covering the meeting
about the UN Secretary
General Antonio
Guterres' $6.7 billion
peacekeeping budget,
as witnessed and
essentially cheered on
by senior UN official
Christian Saunders,
tearing its reporter's
shirt, painfully and
intentionally twisting
his arm and slamming
shut and damaging his
laptop. On August 17,
Guterres' Department
of Global Communication
issued a letter
banning Inner City
Press from the UN -
for life. With no due
process.
Guterres has
put the UN in the US
Press Freedom Tracker,
here.
The
head of the UN
Department
of Global
Communications
said,
again, that the UN
would answer Press
questions to the
Spokesman Stephane
Dujarric and his
Office;
Dujarric said
the same on
camera.
On December
2 an hour
before what
would have
been a
noon briefing by
Spokesman
Stephane "French
Whine"
Dujarric which
was over, near
empty, by 12:30
after
the July 26
noon briefing
had no
questions at all,
video here,
Inner
City Press submitted 1378
questions,
including why
it continues
to be
lawlessly banned
from entering
to ask
questions in
person:
"There
are more than
900+
questions
UNanswered. While
you still
withhold
if-asked
information
about Cameroon
child rape(s)
in CAR. And April 1, 3-30 (one
answer
in the
entire month -
corrupt), and
now May
1-13, 15-17,
21-31,
June
3-28,
and July 1-2,
8-31 and August
1-5,
8-30,
Sept 3-5, 9-30
and now
October 1-3,
7-14,
16-31 and
Nov 1-11, 13-29
many
questions.
No answers at
all during
those four
days of the US
v Ho trial
showing
corruption in
the UN says it
all; no
answers during
the Honduras
narco-president
trial while UN
bragged
about taking his
money, nor on
OneCoin.
This ban is
just
censorship -
and Inner City
Press must be
allowed back
into the noon
briefing to
ask its
questions in
person and
follow up on
them.
December
2-1: On
Zimbabwe, what
are the
comments and
actions if any

Nelson Chamisa
on
Sunday?

what are the
comments and
actions if any

said Emirati

expand markets
for the latest
facial
recognition
technology
while
advancing a
global
standard.
Telecommunications
equipment
maker ZTE,
security
camera firm
Dahua
Technology and
the
state-owned
Chinese
telecommunication
company China
Telecom are
among the
companies
proposing
international
specifications
for
universally
consistent
technology in
the UN’s
International
Telecommunication
Union
(ITU).

2016, released
an hour before
UNSG Guterres

response to
request for
access, on top
of the
November 11

in Liberia,
and by a
Cameroon
"military

Mali,

express and
Nigeria and

separately
each of DSG
Amina J.
Mohammed and
USG Melissa
Fleming on
that Nigerian
first lady
Aisha Buhari's
call for
social media
regulation has
caused an
uproar online.
"If China can
control over
1.3 billion
people on
social media,
I see no
reason why
Nigeria cannot
attempt
controlling
only 180
million
people," she
said.
December
2-7: On press
freedom and
China, what
are the
comments and
actions if any
of SG

Melissa
Fleming on
that Chinese
journalist
Sophia Xueqin
Huang – who
was arrested
in October,
was moved into
residential
surveillance
after being
released from
prison last
week – tops
the list. She
was detained
in Guangzhou,
in Guangdong
province, for
the ambiguous
charges of
“picking
quarrels and
provoking
trouble,”
according to
reports,
ostensibly in
retaliation
for her
coverage of
the Hong Kong
protests...
November
27-4: On fraud
and now Dubai,
now that the
OneCoin trial
in SDNY has
ended with a
guilty
verdict, and
the links to
Venezuela and
PDVSA, as well
as role of
Dubai and
Sheikh
Mohammed bin
Rashid al
Maktoum along
with Amer
Abdulaziz of
Phoenix
thoroughbred
(with other UN
connections)
are being
exclusively
reported by
Inner City
Press while UN
has refused to
answer on it
and on
UN-linked
World Sports
Alliance
IgoBit and
even Carlos
Garcia's use
of the UN for
a fraudulent
coin, now
immediately
answer this
Inner City
Press two week
old questions:
November 8-5:
Again, given
the increase
about of fraud
with which the
UN is
surrounded /
involved in
under SG
Guterres, now
belatedly
answer this
Inner City
Press question
now that
UN-linked
World Sports
Alliance Saint
Clair has been
formally
indicted in
the SDNY, and
belatedly
comment on the
global
implications
of the related
OneCoin fraud
being shown in
SDNY trial:
"October 24-1
November
19-1: On
Honduras on
which SG
Guterres never
answered Inner
City Press'
questions
after
conviction of
presidential
brother Tony
Hernandez and
the proof JOH
took El Chapo
funds, beyond
the UN
thanking
Honduras for
$50,000, what
now is
Guterres'
comment on the
assassination
of Josue David
Caceres
Aguilar, the
son of another
witness of
JOH's
corruption
Miguel Anulfo
Valle? And
again, where
is the report
or what was
the read-out
of the 4
person panel
Guterres sent
to Honduras
after JOH's
dubious
electoral
win?
September
4-8:
Immediately
explain the
single lawless
line from MALU
on 30 August
2019:
"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
a formal
request for
the UN's
explanation of
grounds for
this denial.
And a demand
for answer to
these
questions,
which MALU has
declined to
answer:
Who made the
decision?
Where is the
list of those
accredited by
[MALU]?
What and to
whom is the
process of
appeal?
September
3-19: On press
freedom and
Cameroon, on
which you
refused to
answer on
August 13
despite saying
the office was
staffed and
answering, now
more specific:
what is the
SG's comment
and action if
any, post
golden statue,
to that Paul
Atanga Nji,
territorial
administration
minister, says
Cameroon's
journalists
are becoming
highly
unpatriotic.
"They have one
main
objective,
just to
sabotage
government
action, to
promote
secessionist
tendencies,"
said Nji. "I
urge them to
be
responsible.
Those who do
not want to
respect the
laws will be
booked as
being
recalcitrant
and will be
treated as
such"... Now
that the US
Court of
Appeals for
the Second
Circuit has
ruled against
public
officials
blocking
critics on
Twitter even
if the
official
claims their
account is
private [and AOC
unblocking Dov
Hikind],
what is the
justification
for UNSG
Spokesperson
Stephane
Dujarric, with
the UN flag in
his profile
photo and
Guterres
promoting
content,
blocking Inner
City Press?
What is SG
Guterres'
response /
reaction to UN
DSS and
Guterres'
actions on
Inner City
Press being
listed in the
U.S. Press
Freedom
Tracker, here.
In the UN,
what has the
accountability
been for Lt
Ronald E.
Dobbins and
those those
refused on
camera to give
their names?
What is each
of yours -
particularly
the SG's -
response to
the letter
written and
sent by
Burundi
activist
Manisha
Lievin?
Immediately
explain the
single lawless
line from MALU
on 30 August
2019:
"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
a formal
request for
the UN's
explanation of
grounds for
this denied,
and since
SGcentral, the
SG's chief of
staff and
Deputy SG and
USG Fleming
have not even
responded...
AGAIN,
immediately
explain how it
is legitimate
to ban from
enter into the
UN the media
that has been
asking about
these and
other
questions,
with no
hearing or
appeal - and
respond that
Inner City
Press on
August 24
applied like
100s or 1000s
of others to
cover the
upcoming UNGA
high level
week,
including now
formally
offering to
answer any
quesions the
UN / DSS might
have, having
been vetted
and accredited
elsewhere
since, as both
USG DSS
Michaud and
MALU have
formally been
timely
informed --
and how it is
possible that
a media that
closely covers
and uncovers
the UN could
be denied
entry, other
than (SG)
censorship.
