UN GATE / SDNY,
July 15 – The United
Nations has a growing record
of rapes by its peacekeepers,
including of children, under
Secretary General Antonio
Guterres.
Inner City Press
has reported on the escalation
in UN rapes, even after
Guterres had it thrown out of
the UN and banned since.
On July 15,
Guterres named a new head of
UN Sexual Exploitation and
Abuse: Christian Saunders. It
is no coincidence. Saunders
oversaw the physical ouster of
Inner City Press from the UN
on July 3, 2018, as it covered
the murky deal-making around
the UN's $6 billion budget,
video here.
(Since the
ouster and ban, Guterres' head
of Media Acceditation Melissa
Fleming has refused to
respond, including to a polite
letter from pro bono law firm
Quinn Emanuel, here.)
The July
15 announcement was made by UN
Spokesperson Farhan Haq (lead
spokesman Stephane Dujarric is
on vacation) - and none of the
few correspondents in the
day's noon briefing asked
anything about it.
The UN is dying,
entirely unaccountable. Watch
this site.
