UN GATE,
March 12 – How corrupt
and decrepit has the UN system
become under Antonio Guterres,
in this case due to Guterres?
Inner City Press, which
Guterres has banned from "his"
UN, has been sent a copy of
this staff letter to the "SG
Calling On Him To Resign" -
Dear
Secretary-General, We
are a large group of UN staff
members from different duty
stations, and we ask you to
take the bold decision to step
down from your position and
save the organization.
We consider this
financial crisis to be the
result of your continued and
repeated failures in leading
the UN. Major setbacks include
multiple fiascos in the area
of peace-keeping operations,
which have been or will be
thrown out of several
countries, from Mali to DRC
and Somalia, the irrelevant
role played in major current
conflicts, from Ukraine to the
Middle East, and the collapse
of your policies related to
climate change, just to name a
few.
Now it is time
for you to take responsibility
for your actions and simply
resign, together with the
Deputy Secretary-General, who
has actively supported your
ineffective policies.
Then on
March 12, this Q&A: Q:
Secretary-General, good
morning. Is this UN80
initiative a UN version of
DOGE, the Department of
Government Efficiency we are
seeing in Washington? Do
you anticipate significant UN
staff
cuts?
SG: First of all, nothing to
do with that kind of
initiative. We are talking
about completely different
processes, methodologies and
objectives. Yeah.
Guterres had the
critical Press roughed
up and thrown out. There
has been no due process since,
not even a response to Guterres'
Melissa Fleming to a pro bono inquiry
for Inner City Press from the
law firm Quinn Emanuel. We'll
have more on this.
