SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Dec 14 – How corrupt is
today's United Nations?
Well, just as New
York prepares to go into
another COVID-19 lockdown, its
Secretary General prepares to
fly off to Germany and the
presumably to his real home in
Portugal, before slipping back
into New York evade quarantine
rules that applies to others.
During the
pandemic, Guterres has already
sneaked off to Portugal twice.
He has allowed his UN Security
to keep their gym open when
all other gyms in NYC have
been closed. When banned Inner
City Press asked in writing
about this, Guterres'
spokespeople Stephane Dujarric
and Melissa Fleming have
refused to answer. It is
impunity. He should not
return.
From today's UN
transcript: Dujarric: I
have a trip announcement for
you. The Secretary-General
will travel on Wednesday to
Berlin, where he will address
the German Parliament on
Friday morning. While in
Berlin, he will also meet with
Chancellor Angela Merkel,
President Frank-Walter
Steinmeier and Foreign
Minister Heiko Maas.
Q: it's his first
personal trip since March;
right?
Dujarric: It is
his first official trip. As
you may have recalled, he went
home twice to see his
family.
Question:
Yeah. So the question is, why
is it so important to go to
Germany, in particular taking
into account the current
strict COVID measures in
Germany right now... and if
he's going to quarantine after
his arrival back to New
York?
Dujarric: A
couple of things. We may have
more travel to announce. I
will tell you that the way
we're... travel is organised,
safety is first and foremost.
The Secretary‑General will be
tested before leaving, as will
his
delegation.
This was a very important
invitation on behalf... by the
German Government. It's not
every day that a
Secretary‑General is invited
to address the Bundestag. So,
we've accepted the
invitation.
The Secretary‑General will, of
course, follow all regulations
pertinent to the city and
state of New York upon return
when he is in New York."
And
when would that be? Is this
just a pretext to spend public
money to go to Lisbon, where
Guterres took money from
Gulbenkian which tried to sell
its oil company to UN briber
CEFC China Energy?
Inner City Press
and its questions have been
banned from the UN for 895
days by this corrupt Guterres.
He should not return.
