UN GATE, May 28 –
Mozambique took over the UN
Security Council presidency on
May 1, 2024 - while Inner City
Press is still banned from the
UN, despite its June 19 application.
Mozambique
four weeks later has
accomplished almost nothing.
It is set to be replaced - by
Somalia. Also slated for
uncontested election are
Pakistan, Panama, Denmark and
Greece. The "election" is set
for June 6. Will any of these
be better?
On April 20,
Inner City Press wrote to the
Mozambique Mission: This is a
timely request that you allow
Inner City Press to enter and
cover, and/or provide the
WebEx pass code(s) to
access Mozambique's UNSC
Presidency press briefing by
your Ambassador Pedro
Comissário Afonso on May 1.
Then Inner City
Press asked UN Spox Stephane
Dujarric and the Mission, "On
Mozambique itself.
Still no answer
from the Mozambique mission,
four weeks later, as the
Council fails worldwide and
UNSG Antonio Guterres bans the
Press. A fish rots from the
head.
Watch this
site.
Inner City
Press on June 19 applied
to the UN for access, as it
gives 100s, to cover the UNGA
week. Inner City Press has a
NYC Press Pass, is covering
the Trump trial and writes
about the UN.
