UN Gate, Sept 12
– As the United Nations after
a year of failing on Ukraine
and covering up sexual abuses
from the DR Congo to Colombia
gears up for its annual UNGA
Week this month, it has tried
to further limit access and
coverage by independent
press.
Will this
continue under incoming PGA
Csaba Kőrösi of Hungary? On
September 12 he did his first
stake-out, vowing transparency
but taking two questions from
Chinese state media (Xinhua
and China Central TV) while
Inner City Press is banned,
with no response from Under SG
Melissa Fleming's MALU under
Tal Mekel.
On September 8
Inner City Press, which only
this month exposed a UN sex
quid pro quo scandal in the
MONUSCO "peacekeeping" mission
and the UN links of indicted
Chinese briber Cary Yan,
applied to the UN for access:
Sept 8, 2022
United Nations SG Antonio
Guterres & USG Melissa
Fleming Media Accreditation
and Liaison Unit / Tal Mekel
For the upcoming
UNGA High Level Week, I
noticed that as of Sept 8,
2022 the MALU site says /
claims: For UNGA week, the UN
has limited media access to
only to correspondents
“residing in the tri-state
area or Washington,
D.C.”
While (1)
that is discriminatory, (2)
will not be implement as
regards pro-government media
traveling with delegations - I
noted that I am an long-term
UN reporter (since 2005), se
quid pro quo scandal in the UN
Mission in the DR Congo, and
reside in NYC. My access badge
should be provided
immediately.
You and others including but
not limited to USG Fleming
have been written to on my
behalf by the Quinn Emanuel
law firm, no response yet
despite confirmation of
receipt, see this
video Letter
What will Csaba Kőrösi do, and
disclose, as PGA?
