Inner City Press Questions
Counsel w/o Legal

UN GATE,
April 27 – How corrupt
is the UN-world system under
Antonio Guterres, who bans the
Press which investigates? This
example is again from ITU,
International
Telecommunication Union, whose
whistleblowers have, like
others, reached out to banned
Inner City Press, which put
ITU questions to 30 plus UN
spokesperson with no reply:
"Dear Matthew
Russell Lee: There needs
to be accountability at ITU,
ahead of its Council that
begins on 28 April.
Mysteriously
absent is Antoine Dore, the
head of legal, whose absence
is noteworthy given that
Council is ITU's most
important annual meeting with
Member States, and just prior
to the Plenipotentiary
Conference when there will be
elections for elected
officials. Is there a
legitimate reason for him to
still be fully paid, at around
20k per month, while on
unexplained leave for many
months? Delegates can
also enquire about the Deputy
Secretary-General, Tomas
Lamanauskas, and his alleged
detainment at the Swiss border
for possession of an illegal
substance. No official
statement has yet been issued
by ITU!"
More coming.
After repeated
refusal to respond by
spokespeople including
Stephane Dujarric and Melissa
Fleming, here was the first
complaint on Inner City Press'
DocumentCloud here.
On June 19, 2025 Inner City
Press re-applied to re-enter
the UN to ask these questions,
application here.
UNGA went by - nothing. Then
in January 2026, with no
explanation or rationale
given, a terse denial. Totally
corrupt.
