UN GATE, July 13
– In the United Nations from
which SG Antonio Guterres has
banned Inner City Press 740
days for asking about his
complicity in the killing of
civilians in Cameroon and
their mass imprisonment by
China in Xinjiang, on July 1
German Ambassador Christoph
Heusgen held a censored online
press conference about the
coming month(s) in the
Security Council.
Heusgen
took questions only from
pre-screened in-house
correspondents, one of whose
media has no
story by her since
2017, another with
no stories at all.
ignoring or even pretending
not to see a question about
Cameroon by Inner City Press.
Twitter here,
Periscope here.
Now
Germany, ostensibly to get the
figleaf of multilateral back
on track - without the Press
of course - has put out rules
for in person meetings of the
Security Council. The German
rules, here,
state: "Masks must also be
worn at all times in common
areas of Headquarters."
But new
German Deputy Permanent
Representative Gunter Sautter
immediately broke the German
rules, taking off his mask at
the UN Security Council
stakeout and putting the video
on Twitter, here.
So for Germany, it is one rule
for me, another for thee.
Inner City Press asked
online for an explanation,
since the German mission has
not answered its emails about
being banned from the UN, and
now about UN sexual
exploitation - but no answer.
Corrupt.
More from
Germany's letter: "Within the
conference room, participants
will be asked to circulate
clockwise only and to respect
the required physical distance
of two meters (six feet) at
all times. Two seats will
remain unoccupied between
delegates. All persons
physically present inside the
conference rooms are required
to wear a face covering mask.
Masks must also be worn at all
times in common areas of
Headquarters. There will be no
distribution of documents in
the meeting rooms. Likewise,
all delegations should refrain
from the distribution of any
material or documents in the
meeting rooms, on the tables
and boards outside the meeting
rooms or elsewhere at
Headquarters. The meetings
will be made public only by
live broadcasting on UN Web
TV."
So - not
even the retirees and state
media that Germany answers to.
Pathetic. We'll have more on
this.
Twice in
late June Inner City Press
wrote twice to the German
Mission to the UN, about UN
censorship and then about UN
sexploitation. The German
Mission has yet to answer.
Inner City
Press has published that the
driver, not even subject to
the faux non-discipline of the
other two men, works in UNTSO
Procurement. We know the name.
So what will be done? Watch
this site.
On July 1
Heusgen did not say a word
about the slaughter in
Cameroon, nor about the Tel
Aviv UN sexploitation exposed
by Inner City Press.
The
Program belatedly went up -
with countries on which
Heusgen ignored and censored
questions: West Africa, for
example. There will be COVID
(which the UN helped spread in
South Sudan) on July 2, "human
rights" and UN Peacekeeping -
UNTSO? - on July 7. Libya on
July 8, West Africa including
Nigeria / Cameroon on July 9.
Colombia and Syria on July 14;
Yemen (another UN failure) on
July 16. Conflict related
sexual violence, covered up by
Guterres and Stephane
Dujarric, on July 17. Cyprus
on the 20th, Middle East on
the 21st, climate on the 24.
Then what? They never sent the
Program. We'll have more on
this.
When Guterres'
spokes- / hatchetman Stephane
Dujarric holds his noon
briefings this month while
refusing all questions from
Inner City Press despite an on
camera promise.
And Germany? We'll report.
