UN
Guterres Coronavirus Q&A Cut by Coughs
As He Bans Inner City Press Qs 629 Days
By Matthew
Russell Lee, Video
UN GATE, March 23
– When
UN Secretary
General Antonio
Guterres held
a live but
limited press
conference on
Coronavirus
COVID-19 on
March 23, he began by
coughing and
then saying to
start again. Video here. This while he has banned
Inner City
Press for 629
days and
refused to
answer its
questions, including
if he has been
tested.
How
corrupt and irresponsible
is this
UN of Antonio
Guterres, enabled by
his in-house
sycophant
correspondents?
Well, while
Guterres
roughs up and
bans the Press
which asks
about
Coronavirus
and his
complicity,
with Cameroon,
an unnamed
diplomat from the
Philippines came
down with COVID-19.
On
March 13 it
emerged that
when the UN
had this
information it
only sent it
to its less
than 100 "active"
resident
correspondents,
members of the UN
Correspondents
Association on
which Chinese
state media Xinhua
has an ongoing
veto-weilding
seat. Aren't
organizations
supposed to
tell all those
who are in jeopardy?
Inner City
Press asked,
before the
UN's March 13
noon briefing,
"March 13-1:
On the
Coronavirus
Covid-19,
please
immediately
state the
conditions and
mitigation for
the lay off of
all Delegates
Dining Room
staff which
Inner City
Press reported
yesterday
after being
contacted by
staff
complaining
there is no
mitigation of
economic harm.
Separately,
has SG
Guterres been
tested for
COVID-19?" No
answer at all, nor
to a question
about a
Portuguese
visitor to
Guterres. Watch
this site.
While
the United
Nations preaches
how countries
should
mitigate the
impacts of
their response
to Coronavirus
COVID-19,
at UN Headquarters
under
Secretary
General Antonio
Guterres the
Delegates
Dining Room workers are
being summarily
laid off, with
no mitigation.

Workers
in the UN
Delegates
Dining Room,
outraged at the
callousness of
Guterres who
lives alone in a
four story
mansion on
57th Street
and Sutton Place,
sent banned
Inner City
Press a copy
of their
lay-off
notice.
Guterres had
Inner City
Press roughed
up by his Security -
one of whom
Augustine Pavel recently
jumped off a
building on 45th Street
and
Second Avenue,
Inner City
Press exclusive
here
after no
answers from
UN -
rough up
Inner City
Press after it
interviewed
Cameroon's
Ambassador on
3 July 2018; his
Spokesperson
Stephane
Dujarric and
Melissa
Fleming have
banned Inner
City Press since,
without no
explanation or
right to
appeal. These
people are
corrupt
hypocrites - and increasingly,
criminals.
Watch this
site.
On
February 29
Inner City
Press
exclusively published
an
internal
UNESCO email
leaked to it
about the
agency's
contact with the
Coronavirus
COVID-19 and
its cover up.
UN system boss
Antonio Guterres,
typically
pro-China, has
refused banned
Press questions
on it.
This
is Antonio
Guterres' UN.
We will
have more on
that.
