UN GATE,
May 15 – How corrupt and
decrepit has the UN system
become under Antonio Guterres,
in this case due to Guterres?
Today's example is again from
the Office of the High
Commission for Human Rights,
to which Guterres appointed
his unqualified crony Volker
Turk more than two years ago.
From OHCHR
staff - "Dear Matthew Russell
Lee, Many thanks for exposing
corruption in UN under Antonio
Guterres and his cronies like
narcissistic Volker Turk.
Narcissist crony
Volker Turk bids farewell to
one of the most toxic UN
officials ever: soulless
predator Nada al Nashif, the
one who has perpetuated a
group of favorites including
corrupt Kim Taylor and
unstable Maarit Kohonen
Sheriff.
Volker Turk,
while doing tourism in Asia,
thanks his outgoing deputy for
her “dedication and
professional”. Dedication to
repress critical staff and
whistleblowers, to fire over
300 colleagues last year
(including pregnant women and
sick ones), one colleague
everyday was fired.
Meanwhile not one
single ASG, D2, D1 or P5 has
been affected by the budget
crisis. Excellent performance
in whipping out young talent
and keeping old and expensive
privileges.
Professionalism? To promote
his nationals and his
favorites?. Volker Turk,
the masks are down: Nada al
Nashif was you bad cop so that
you can smile and tour while
wasting taxpayers money
playing good cop... Amb Waltz,
the ball is on your court."
Fat chance.
So far,
nothing from Mike Waltz.
Meanwhile both Big Tony and
Amina junketed on April 15 to
the IMF which Inner City Press
is accredited to cover, and at
which it asked questions - but
not of Tony, as UNCTAD denied
Inner City Press to its "side
event." The UN is dying, or
being killed off.
There's a new
NextSG candidate, Maria
Fernanda Espinosa. Two days
ago she and her sponsor
Antigua and Barbuda were sent
a questionnaire about about
this. So far, nothing. Watch
this site.
Inner City Press
re-applied to re-enter the UN
on June 19, 2025 - no answer
at all from Melissa Fleming,
Tel Mekel, Stephane Dujarric
for six months, then a denial
with no reason at all given.
Today's UN is corrupt.
