Colombia Junket of UN Guterres Trashed Bronx As Drug Riddled As Wife Gabs on Public Dime

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Nov 26 – The United Nations under Secretary General Antonio Guterres has become a place of corruption and self-dealing, lack of transparency and censorship. 

Forget that Guterres has only made worse the conflicts and coups in Yemen, Cameroon, Libya, Burma, Nigeria and elsewhere. 

He takes the public's money for his person trips to Lisbon, from which his wife Catarina Vaz Pinto has yet to join him in his publicly-funded mansion in New York.

When Inner City Press asks his spokespeople Stephane Dujarric and Melissa Fleming how much this costs, in person than in writing after Guterres had Inner City Press thrown out, there is no answer. 

  Catarina Vaz Pinto has shown up in photos from Guterres' self-congratulatory junket to Colombia. See here.

 It gets worse - while in Colombia she pontificated on Instagram about "El Bronx," described as a once drug riddled neighborhood.

For years residents of the real Bronx, in New York City, have asked others not to call their most violent and poorest (or darkest) communities "The Bronx."

But tellingly faux NYC resident Guterres' wife, jet setting on the public dime, trashed the Bronx cavalierly. Why do these people get to take / steal the public's money to insult in, and to ban the Press that asks and not answer its questions? Limousine (or armored personnel carrier) pseudo Socialists. Basta.

 Again: who paid for her travel there from Lisbon, and her lodging there? 

Was the whole trip just a taxpayer funded vacation?

  Not only Dujarric and Fleming, but also the rest of the UN spokespeople including Farhan Haq and Eri Kaneko, Stephanie Tremblay, Florencia Soto Nino and now Paulina Kubiak refuse to answer any of Inner City Press' written questions, emailed to them each day, including about UN rapes and Guterres links with indicted pedofile procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, on whose Terramar board Guterres' Partnership official Amir Dossal was one of only five members.  

 Inner City Press remains banned from the UN, with a polite letter to Fleming from the Quinn Emanuel law firm ignored. Today's UN is corrupt and should be de-funded. See also, Belt and Roadkill.
