UN GATE, April 1
– In the United Nations from
which Secretary General
Antonio Guterres has banned
Inner City Press 1003 days for
asking about his complicity in
the killing of civilians in
Cameroon, poisoning them in
Haiti with cholera and COVID
in South Sudan, and their mass
imprisonment by China in
Xinjiang, on April 1 Inner
City Press wrote to the
Mission of Viet Nam, as
incoming UN Security Council
president, with questions
including about Cameroon,
Honduras, Yemen, Western
Sahara, Haiti and Libya.
Inner City
Press specifically asked
Ambassador Dang Dinh Quy to be
provided the WebEx codes to be
able to ask its questions:
This is a timely request that you sent
Inner City Press the pass code(s) to access
your UNSC Presidency press briefing on April
1. I have questions to ask on what you will do
this month about the conflicts in Myanmar,
Honduras, Western Sahara Cameroon, Yemen and
Libya - and on the sexual harassment charges
against Fabrizio Hochschild on which Inner
City Press first reported in April 2019, for
example - Inner City Press is asking to be
provided with access / the passwords to your
Viet Nam mission's stakeouts and press
conferences this month as UNSC
President. Please note that Inner City
Press and I participate in the WebEx briefings
of, for example, the IMF, here.
Separately, given that I have submitted
to the PGA a letter and CV in connection with
SG election process, to cause a debate on UN
press freedom and accountability, this is a
formal request that you circulate my and other
candidates' letter and CVs to member states,
or immediately inform me why not, given that
no written rule required a member state's
endorsement to run. Please
immediately confirm receipt, and provide the
passcode or state why not."
No answer.
Nothing. Not even a
confirmation of receipt. Then
Dang
Dinh Quy held
an April 1 press conference
with not a single question on
anything in Africa, much less
Cameroon.
In fact,
among those allowed in was a
lengthy pro North Korea
question, and a bunch of
repetitive questions. Inner
City Press video here,
Instagram here.
And
because we'll be covering
them, apparently despite the
censorship by Viet Nam
Mission, the April Program of
Work (put online late)
includes April 6 Mali / Syria,
7 Great Lakes, 13 Kosovo, 15
Libya and Yemen, 21 Western
Sahara (censored), 22 Middle
East and some debates.
We'll have more on this.
