Year of
Ukraine
Failure By UN
and Guterres
Covered Up Now
Refugees

UN GATE, Feb 21 –
There
is much to say
about the
now-full year
of war in
Ukraine. But
the focus here
is on the
total failure
of the United
Nations, and
even more of
its Secretary
General
Antonio
Guterres.
Guterres, who
has a pattern
of being
obsequious to
strongmen like
China's Xi,
with whom he
glad-handed at
the Beijing
Olympics
without saying
a world about
the genocide
against the
Uighurs in
Xinjiang,
initially told
his staff not
to call what
happened in
Ukraine an
invasion.
Once
he was outed,
he pushed
forward to try
to help sell
Russian
ammonia,
through a
Houston-based
commodities
firm, no less.
Thus to keep
the UN
Security
Council's
Permanent Five
members
content. The
war
continues.
When
questioned
about his
actions -
Inner City
Press asked
about
Guterres'
cover up of
his links to
convicted UN
briber China
Energy Fund
Committee, and
how he chose
the
Houston-based
firm - his
response,
through
"Department of
Global
Communications"
chief Melissa
Fleming, as
been to keep
Inner City
Press banned
from entry.
His
spokesperson
Stephane
Dujarric
refuses all of
Inner City
Press' written
questions.
Now UN General
Assembly
president
Csaba Korosi,
who followed
suit and
blocked Inner
City Press
from his
"Civil Society
Town Hall,"
will hold an
entirely
symbolic UNGA
meeting Feb 22
and 23, and
perhaps 24.
His
spokesperson
Paulina Kubiak
told Inner
City Press it
could appeal
the ban - but
UN DSS chief
Gilles Michaud
has entirely
ignored the
December 5,
2022
appeal.
How long will
those with
unrealistic
and/or
self-serving
dreams about
the UN allow
Guterres to
continue
this?
On February
20,
Presidents'
Day in the US,
Joe Biden
showed up in
Kyev. On
November 21,
NRC said One
year on from
the start of
the Ukraine
war, NRC has
found that
seven out of
ten refugees
who fled to
Poland,
Moldova and
Romania said
they are
struggling to
make ends
meet. As
President
Biden prepares
to speak in
Warsaw later
today [Feb 21]
NRC is calling
on host
countries and
international
donors to not
forget about
the plight of
refugees..
[But Tony's UN
has moved on,
while still
conniving to
help sell
Russian
ammonia
through Trammo
or otherwise].
More
respondents in
Poland and
Moldova report
having moved
to substandard
housing to
reduce their
costs compared
to those in
Romania, and
relatively
more people in
Moldova –
particularly
the Roma
community –
have resorted
to borrowing
money since
they fled
Ukraine.
Usurious
nations.. More
responses
follow. Watch
