| After UNOPS
Corruption Exposed by Inner City Press
Buck Passing on Vanshelboim UN Appeal

UN GATE, Jan 14 –
In the United Nations under
Antonio Guterres, there is
nothing but failure and
excuses and fundraising on
crises like Ukraine,
Gaza, Burma, Haiti and
Cameroon.
There is impunity
for sexual abuse by
peacekeepers and UN staff like
Juan Carlos Cunillera, just
"along for the ride" during
the UN
sex-in-the-van exposed
by Inner City Press.
But now as we
looked at and asked about
Guterres' omission of his
links to UN briber CEFC China
Energy, leading to him banning
the Press (and Melissa Fleming
continuing the ban, not even answering
a law firm's pro bono letter),
on April 17, 2022 we published
on other officials - including
long time UNOPS operative
Vitaly Vanshelboim (whom Inner
City Press covered in
connection with UNOPS gag
orders before being banned
from UN by corrupt Guterres.)
We noted
that Vanshelboim's skeeze in
the S3i scam of UNOPS's Grete
Faremo.
While
others then noted for example
that a long time member of the
UN Correspondents Association
Gloria Starr Kins played a
role in hooking up the fraud,
they don't mention UNCA and
their role in banning the
Press.
Now, there is or
might be some openness, of the
UN circus:
The
Applicant, a former staff
member of the United Nations
Office for Project Services
(“UNOPS”), contests the
decision to impose on him the
disciplinary measures of
dismissal and a fine of twelve
month’s net base salary. He
also contests the decision to
recover from him the amount of
USD63,626,806 and to withhold
the release of the PF.4 form
(“separation notification”) to
the United Nations Joint Staff
Pension Fund (“UNJSPF”) until
such indebtedness is fully
recovered... By email dated 24
November 2023, the Tribunal
asked the parties to confirm
their availability to
virtually attend a Case
Management Discussion (“CMD”)
between 11 and 15 December
2023.
Then, after Inner
City Press on December 4
published the above, the UN
changed Vanshelboim's
proceeding, which portend more
waste of the public's funds,
to "closed to the public."
And now, after
the non-public proceeding,
more passing of the buck:
Judge Sun Xiangzhuang has
assigned "the following Judges
to the Three-Judge Panel to
adjudicate the matter of
Vanshelboim UNDT/GVA/2023/020:
Judge Sun Xiangzhuang,
Presiding Judge Joelle Adda
Judge Sean Wallace." This is
Antonio Guterres' UN: totally
corrupt.
Watch this site -
and Vanshelboim, here:
Two (2)
residential properties,
Ukraine
Two (2) residential
properties, jointly owned, USA
Annuity, ING, USA
Investment fund, Citi Bank,
USA
Investment fund, Danske
Invest, jointly owned, Denmark
So while
Citibank ("Citi Bank") still
does business in Russia, what
are the statuses of
Vanshelboim's Ukraine
properties? Either way, no
friend of Press freedom.
We'll
have more on this.
