UN GATE, July 13
– In the United Nations from
which SG Antonio Guterres has
banned Inner City Press 741
days for asking about his
complicity in the killing of
civilians in Cameroon and
their mass imprisonment by
China in Xinjiang, on June 1
French Ambassador Nicolas de
Riviere (and July's president
German Ambassador Christoph
Heusgen, telling all to wear
mask which his new Deputy does
not) held a censored online
press conference about the
coming month(s) in the
Security Council.
Now on
July 13, with Guterres and
France still silent on its
ally Cameroon killing
journalist Sam Wazizi (French
UN spokesperson Stephane
Dujarric de la Riviere won't
even take the questions,
including about his role in
working with Sri Lanka war
criminal Palitha Kohona and
UNCA to oust Inner City Press,
story here,
Kohona here),
this was put out by Dujarric
on Central African Republic:
"The Secretary-General
strongly condemns today’s
attack by alleged Return,
Reclamation and Rehabilitation
(3R) armed elements on a
United Nations
Multidimensional Integrated
Stabilization Mission in the
Central African Republic
(MINUSCA) convoy in Gedze,
Nana-Mambere prefecture in the
northwest of the
country. A peacekeeper
from Rwanda was killed and two
others were
wounded.
The Secretary-General
expresses his deepest
condolences to the family of
the victim as well as to the
people and Government of
Rwanda. He wishes a speedy
recovery to the
injured.
The Secretary-General recalls
that attacks against United
Nations peacekeepers may
constitute war crimes under
international law. He calls on
the Central African Republic
authorities to spare no effort
in identifying the
perpetrators of this attack so
that they can be brought to
justice
swiftly.
The Secretary-General
reaffirms that the United
Nations will continue to
support national efforts to
advance peace and stability in
the Central African Republic,
working closely with the
country’s international
partners.
Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesman
for the
Secretary-General New
York, 13 July 2020."
France left CAR
without roads and with an
extremely low literacy rate,
while selling "Emperor"
Bokassa millions of dollars of
fur capes and Faberge eggs.
Nothing on UN peacekeepers'
rapes in CAR, including of
children, just like on June 19
not a word about the cholera
the UN brought, killing 10,000
Haitians. We'll have
more on this. Here
was Inner City Press' video
when it covered the Security
Council's mid 2017 trip to
Haiti, before it was roughed
up by corrupt Guterres' UN
Security and banned now 741
days.
On June 1
they took questions only from
pre-screened in-house
correspondents, ignoring or
even pretending not to see a
question about Cameroon by
Inner City Press. Twitter here,
Periscope here.
Neither
said a word about the
slaughter in Cameroon; they
did not answer Inner City
Press on-line question about
new cases of UN sex abuse,
including a child rape in
South Sudan by UNMISS data
dumped by the UN on June 1.
The
Program belatedly went up -
with countries on which the
two ambassadors ignored and
censored questions: DRC, Mali,
South Sudan. We'll have more
on this.
Back on
February 3, before Coronavirus
hit New York (but after the
first cases covered up in
Wuhan in December 2019)
Belgian Ambassador Marc
Pecsteen de Buytswerve held an
in person but also
friends-only press conference
about his upcoming month as
Security Council president,
with few questions on Africa.
Program of Work tweeted by
Inner City Press here.
Belgium,
of course, oversaw the
colonialism and killing in the
Congo. Its mission to the
UN,in 2018 and since, did not
respond to Inner City Press'
formal communications about
Guterres having it roughed up
and banned. Still the Mission
and Ambassador pontificate
about press freedom and even
the safety of journalists.
The next,
such as it was, is that Jared
Kushner will brief the
Security Council behind closed
doors on February 6 at noon,
when Guterres' spokes- /
hatchetman Stephane Dujarric
holds his noon briefing will
refusing all questions from
Inner City Press despite an on
camera promise.
