UN
GATE, Oct 28
– In April
and again
earlier
this month,
Inner City
Press
asked: how
corrupt
and hypocritical
is the
United Nations of
Secretary General
Antonio Guterres?
A day
later after
formal written
questions to
Guterres and
his
spokespeople
Stephane
Dujarric and
Melissa
Fleming, the
UN system's
only response
was to try to
mis-use the
European privacy law
GDPR to seek
removal of the
work
email
addresses of
the
publicly paid UN
system
official
involved.
Inner City
Press had
already unilaterally
removed the "@" from all
non-UN email
addresses,
even of UN
officials,
to make the
links dead. Then one
with a
UN (FAO)
addresses wrote
to Inner City
Press,
alleging a GDPR
violation - with
no response then
or since on
the substance of
the scandal,
and citing as
support the response
of a Europe-based
publication
the UN system
has already
sued and tried
to bankrupt.
Now as
Guterres sent
accused
sexual
harasser Fabrizio
Hochschild to
pitch for $11
million for
self-celebration
supposedly open to
critics while
banning
the Press another,
in WFP's "book
club," tries
the same:
"Dear Inner
City Press, My
name is
Kawinzi Muiu
and I am the
one who runs
the book club,
the book club
is private and
is not part of
WFP... I
explained this
to the Insider
and they were
kind enough to
remove the
email address. Could
I kindly ask
you to remove
the email
address from
your website?"
Even though
Inner City
Press had
its hands full
covering
the Honduras
president narco trafficking
connections
and other scandals
including UN /
Guterres
scandals in
the SDNY
Federal court,
as a
matter of principle
Inner City
Press cannot abide a
request that
would prevent
the public
from
petitioning
publicly-paid UN
officials,
on their work
addresses, for
a redress of grievances.
We removed
in full an
email address
from the "cordelia.net"
domain - from
which we had
already
removed the
"@" sign.
This is the
UN's response:
to misuse European
law to thumb its
nose at public
accountability.
Now while
Inner City
Press is following
up on its
exclusive of
the arrest of
UN-linked
fraudster Asa
Saint
Clair of World
Sports
Alliance but
not yet of the
UN officials
who enable
this, it
removes of
modified the
claimed book
clubber (the cited other
removal is
behind a
paywall and
can't be verified;
we are
dubious.) See
below.
Note
that this same
UN claims
total immunity
for bringing
cholera to
Haiti and
killed 10,000
people, and
despite being
put on notice
repeatedly by
Inner City
Press Guterres
has allowed
the / a UN
money launder to use
PGA Tijjani
Muhammed-Bande's
and Guterres'
image to
defraud the
public with
fake "UN
Coins."
We will
have more on
this.
Now
again the
wider
answer to How
Corrupt Is
Today's UN: so
much so that
while Guterres
claims zero
tolerance and
to be a
feminist, now he was
rewarded
and covered up
sexual
misconduct in
his own office.
In
a musical chairs
personnel move
on April
18, the day
after he continued
his 287 -
for 460 - day
censorship
of the Press,
Guterres named
as his new
Assistant
Secretary-General
for Strategic
Coordination
one Volker
Türk, who
when Inner
City Press
asked him
about refugees
chased by Paul
Biya's
Cameroon army
into Nigeria
seemed not to
know about it.
Guterres, as we have
reported, not
only took a
golden statue
from Biya, but
went
silent on the
killings since Cameroon
was
chair of the
UN Budget
Committee. But
it's worse:
Turk is
taking the position
from Fabrizio
Hochschild
Drummond of
Chile "who was
appointed as
Special
Adviser of the
Secretary-General
on the
Preparations
for the
Commemoration
of the United
Nations’ 75th
Anniversary."
This promotion
is,
ghoulishly,
Guterres rewarding
what multiple
staff say was
Hochschild's
relationship
with another
junior staff
member. One of
the staff
members tells
Inner City
Press it in these words: "his
promotion to
USG was
because the SG
wanted him out
of his office
after he was
caught having
an affair with
a junior staff
member. In
terms of power
play this is a
reward for
sexual
harassment."
Now with credit
to Italian
Insider which
in
Guterres' UN
system has
been allowed
to be sued to
try to put it
out of
business,
this: "An
irate wife’s
email to
fellow members
of the World
Food Programme
book club blew
the whistle on
Sudanese
Deputy
Executive
Director Amir
Abdulla’s
amorous
activities,
leading
ultimately to
his being
referred to in
an external
review of
sexual and
other
harassment at
the UN agency,
WFP sources
said.
“Some of you
will be aware
that Amir has
been having
affairs with
colleagues at
WFP,” she told
them in the
email that
subsequently
was widely
forwarded
around the
poverty-busting
organisation's
Rome
headquarters.
“I expect some
of you have
seen him as he
seems to be
working his
way through
the
staff!”
“I had thought
this might be
a good year,
new start, but
we returned
from a
wonderful
family
Christmas to
find a message
from Lidija,
so he has
clearly moved
on from Monica
… but still
doesnt want
me.”

Hello
Everyone
I hope you all
had good
holidays and
wish you a
very happy new
year. I
have really
enjoyed being
a member of
the bookclub
and getting to
know you, it
has been one
of the most
important
things in my
life over the
last couple of
years
Sadly I must
now leave you.
Some of you
will be aware
that Amir has
been having
affairs with
colleagues at
WFP, I expect
some of you
have seen him
as he seems to
be working his
way through
the
staff! I
had thought
this might be
a good year,
new start, but
we returned
from a
wonderful
family
Christmas to
find a message
from Lidija,
so he has
clearly moved
on from Monica
Masotti but
still doesnt
want me.
It will be
messy and I
will
eventually
leave Rome,
bookclub would
clearly be too
embarrassing.
Thanks for
your
friendship-any
advice would
be
great.
Julie."
Embarrassing?
The UN of faux
feminist
Guterres is a total
joke, and tries to
ban and censor
the Press
which asks and
reports on
it.
