UN GATE, Jan
14 – From
the corrupt UN
of Antonio
Guterres, who
is now running
for a second
mandate, the
whole UN
system has
been totally
corrupted,
especially
UNESCO. The
Paris based UN
agency is in
turmoil after
the exposure
of a number of
administrative
transgressions
by Inner City
Press, which
articles led
to internal
investigations.
Yet,
advocating for
governing
control
measures by
member states
yields
results, as
revealed in
the letter by
the ambassador
of the UK to
UNESCO,
Matthew Lodge,
who
denunciated
the lack of
transparency
and financial
accountability
in the
administration
of the French
DG Audrey
Azoulay. This
letter was
motivated by
the article of
Inner City
Press about
the
misappropriation
of public
funds in large
proportions
(see copy of
the UK
Ambassador’s
letter here).
In his letter,
the UK
ambassador
pointed out
that the
embezzlement
allegations
that had been
rejected at
the outset
with
condescension
by Nicholas
Jeffreys
ADG/ADM and
Nikolas
Kacyanides
Dir/Cabinet,
were factual
information
that and “the
Inner City
Press
allegations of
financial
impropriety
and breach of
rules” proved
to be “a
confirmed
financial
fraud”. This
is the first
time when an
influent
member state
of UNESCO, and
a member of
the Security
Council P5, is
confirming in
writing the
veracity of
the
arraignments
by Inner City
Press. From
the UN? No
answer.

As UNSC Prez Tunisia Bans Cameroon Qs For Guterres
But Will 5 New Members Do Better?
UN GATE, Jan
4 – In the United Nations from which SG
Antonio Guterres has banned Inner City Press
916 days for asking about his complicity in
the killing of civilians in Cameroon,
poisoning them in Haiti with cholera and COVID
in South Sudan, and their mass imprisonment by
China in Xinjiang, on January 4 Inner City
Press wrote to the Mission of Tunisia, as
incoming UN Security Council president, with
questions including about Ethiopia, Western
Sahara, Haiti, Yemen and Cameroon.
Inner
City Press specifically asked to be provided
the WebEx codes to be able to ask its
questions. No answer.
But
three hours later when Tunisia's Ambassador
Tarek Labed took questions, his spokesperson
took them in groups of four -- without protest
from the increasingly pathetic UNCA UN press
corpse -- allowing Labed to evade even the
questions that were asked.
No one allowed
in asked about Cameroon, just the way Guterres
wants it. The answer is clearly no. This is
shameful. But will the five incoming UNSC
members - India, Ireland, Mexico, Kenya and
Norway - do their jobs of openness to the
Press and public? We will be asking.
For now
Inner City Press, which will report all month
about the UNSC with or seemingly without any
Tunisia or Labed access, posted the Program of
Work here
and notes for example "Wester Africa" - that
would / should include Cameroon - on January
11, Yemen on January 14, League of Arab States
on January 18, Syria on January 20, Colombia
on January 21, and January 26 on the Middle
East. Labed said two meetings will be in
person - this as Guterres violated COVID
quarantine rules. Today's UN is corrupt.
Inner City Press streamed some of the
Press-less presser, here.
Among those "given the floor" by
Tunisia, while banning Inner City Press, were
state media from Pakistan, a retiree of a
decade, and others.
When Guterres'
spokes- / hatchetman Stephane Dujarric holds
his noon briefings this month while refusing
all questions from Inner City Press despite an
on camera promise.
And Tunisia and Labed? We'll report.

Antonio
Guterres Flew
to Lisbon To
Politicize
Religious
Order In Bid
For 2d Term
SDNY
COURTHOUSE, Jan 1 – Antonio Guterres'
four years as UN Secretary General have
consisted of diplomatic failures,
cover-ups
of UN sexual abuse and UN bribers, including
his own connections
with convicted briber CEFC China Energy, and banning
of the Press that asked.
Now at New
Years 2021, violating what the public is told
to do with the UN's WHO and by Joe
Biden, among others, Guterres has
traveled on vacation to Portugal (and, it's
been said, then to the UK).
There
in Portugal, a craven religious order has
debased itself by calling him a man of peace
while not doing basic research into Guterres
cover up of child rape - sadly, it's birds of
a feather: "The custodian of the Sacred
Convent of Assisi announced that the 'Lamp of
Peace of San Francisco”, granted annually,
will be given in 2021 to the Secretary-General
of the United Nations, António Guterres.
'The motivation that led us to this
recognition is his tireless work of political
mediation in the complexity of our world that
is struggling with so many conflicts, wars,
injustices and degradation of human beings and
creation; a deep commitment to a dialogical
and cordial style, a style of fraternal
humanism, as we, the friars of the Sacred
Convent, call it ”, explained Fr. Marco
Moroni, speaking of the Portuguese
official. António Guterres is praised
for his “political activity lived as a
vocation at the service of the common good."
Beyond
the ghoulish praise by a Catholic group of a
man whose UN Partnerships representative Amir
Dossal was on the board of Ghislaine Maxwell's
Terramar Project, and won't answer the Press
on that or UN child rapes, instead roughed it
up and banned, why are they involved in
politics at all? Who oversees them?
Why did
Guterres thumb his nose as his own
organization's directives and travel to
Portugal?
Was it meet up
with his son Pedro, whose African
business deals like a meeting with
Rwanda Paul Kagame Guterres has refused to
disclose or explain, when banned
Inner City Press asked?
Well, with
Guterres in Lisbon, that city's and his organ
of choice Expresso has begun Guterres'
campaign for an entirely unmerited second term
as SG, with Helder Gomes writing (or reciting,
dictated by Guterres) that "the former
Portuguese prime minister will fulfill the
next 12 months with the promised US return to
multilateralism. For now, Guterres maintains
the taboo, but has already indicated that he
still has a lot to do."
More bribes to
take? More civilians to sell out, as he has
the Anglophones of Cameroon?
If the
UN is to retain or even regain any of its
credibility, there can be no second term. Just
say no to Guterres. Song
I here. Watch this site.

Guterres Cries
Poor Flying to
Germany UK and
Lisbon Amid
COVID and
Censorship
SDNY
COURTHOUSE, Dec 15 – How corrupt is today's
United Nations?
Well, just as
New York prepares to go into another COVID-19
lockdown, its Secretary General prepares to
fly off to Germany and the presumably to his
real home in Portugal, before slipping back
into New York evade quarantine rules that
applies to others.
This while
Guterres cries poor, in a letter to staff that
Inner City Press now exclusively publishes in
full:
"Saturday, 12
December 2020 Dear Colleagues, I am
writing to update you on the ways in which we
are managing the continuing liquidity
challenges facing the United Nations. My
senior team and I have been working closely
with Member States to find a systemic solution
to the recurring cash crisis, especially for
our regular budget operations. The
ultimate responsibility for our financial
health lies with Member States. Most
have fulfilled their Charter obligations and
paid in full, some on time and some even in
advance. Many have responded positively
to my appeals during the year to accelerate
their contributions. With your
help, we have been working hard to deal with a
problem that is greater this year than
compared to 2019. We started 2020 with
the highest level of arrears in recent history
– $711 million – eroding our already meagre
reserves. By February, there were
already alarming signs of further deficits and
as a result, we had to institute additional
cash conservation measures to ensure that we
would be able to pay the salaries and
entitlements of our staff on time and settle
our legal obligations to vendors. The
impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have created
even further difficulties, and we are now over
$600 million short of our target for the
year. However, notwithstanding these
shortfalls, we have continued to prioritize
salaries every month and have advanced
payments to provide staff with more
predictability during the crisis. This
cautious approach to spending, especially in
controlling hiring, has proven prudent.
Without these measures, our operations would
have been disrupted and we would not have been
able to meet payrolls or fulfil our
obligations. However, outstanding
contributions are now nearly $1,194 million,
and we have depleted the liquidity reserves
for the regular budget and now have to borrow
from the accounts of closed peacekeeping
operations in order to meet obligations for
December. I have made every effort
to protect staff from this crisis, and I will
continue to do so. As personnel costs
constitute the bulk of the regular budget, as
well as being the most difficult to adjust
quickly in response to cash shortages, hiring
judiciously has been critical to ensuring
liquidity for salaries. But this has a
terrible knock-on effect: high vacancies put
more pressure on existing staff, which is
neither desirable nor sustainable. I
have urged managers to be sensitive and
creative in addressing this situation, and I
have also emphasized to Member States that
this persisting liquidity crisis is
undermining our work. I continue to
implore Member States to contain the erosion
of our capacity to deliver while working with
them to find a sustainable solution that
simultaneously supports staff and enables the
United Nations to sustain its
operations. I want to assure
you that we are in this
together. Thank you for your
service during these challenging times. Yours
sincerely, António Guterres"
Now UK
Permanent Representative Barbara Woodward has
tweeted, "My Prime Minister is looking forward
to welcoming you to London in January to mark
#UN75." So,
"does @AntonioGuterres leaving NY
for Germany tomorrow Dec 16, as NYC moves to
COVID Pause of Lockdown, and this "London in
January" mean that he'll be spending public
money in Lisbon from mid Dec into January,
amid the pandemic? When would he come back to
UNHQ?" This has been asked publicly - no
answer.
Nor to this,
emailed to Guterres, his deputy Amina J.
Mohammed, chief of staff Viotti and
spokespeople: " How can it be that,
given the impending lockdown for COVID in NY,
and the situation in Germany, that SG Guterres
is flying there, instead of speaking by Zoom?
When is SG Guterres scheduled to return to NY?
Will he be going to Lisbon? Is that, as some
surmise, the goal of the ill-considered / bad
example trip?"
During
the pandemic, Guterres has already sneaked off
to Portugal twice. He has allowed his UN
Security to keep their gym open when all other
gyms in NYC have been closed. When banned
Inner City Press asked in writing about this,
Guterres' spokespeople Stephane Dujarric and
Melissa Fleming have refused to answer. It is
impunity. He should not return.
From the
December 14 UN transcript: Dujarric: I
have a trip announcement for you. The
Secretary-General will travel on Wednesday to
Berlin, where he will address the German
Parliament on Friday morning. While in Berlin,
he will also meet with Chancellor Angela
Merkel, President Frank-Walter Steinmeier and
Foreign Minister Heiko Maas.
Q: it's his
first personal trip since March; right?
Dujarric: It
is his first official trip. As you may have
recalled, he went home twice to see his
family.
Question:
Yeah. So the question is, why is it so
important to go to Germany, in particular
taking into account the current strict COVID
measures in Germany right now... and if he's
going to quarantine after his arrival back to
New
York?
Dujarric: A
couple of things. We may have more travel to
announce. I will tell you that the way
we're... travel is organised, safety is first
and foremost. The Secretary‑General will be
tested before leaving, as will his
delegation.
This was a very important invitation on
behalf... by the German Government. It's not
every day that a Secretary‑General is invited
to address the Bundestag. So, we've accepted
the
invitation.
The Secretary‑General will, of course, follow
all regulations pertinent to the city and
state of New York upon return when he is in
New York."
And when would that be? Is this just a pretext
to spend public money to go to Lisbon, where
Guterres took money from Gulbenkian which
tried to sell its oil company to UN briber
CEFC China Energy?
Inner City Press
and its questions have been banned from the UN
for 895 days by this corrupt Guterres. He should
not return. December

now Guterres'
Global

Melissa

joined their
boss in
personally
covering up
child rapes
and sexual
abuse by UN
personnel,
including
recently a
child rape by
a UN
"peacekeeper"
from Paul

Cameroon in DR

Even while
they and OIOS
Ben Swanson
purport to
care - and
even answer
questions - on
the UN's cover
up for
Burundian and
Gabon rapes in
CAR in 2017,
they have
adopted
corrupt
Guterres'
solution going
forward: cover
up the cases
in advance.
Rough up and
ban the Press
which asks,
leave inside
only insiders
who ask why
they can't use
the UN
escalator
instead of
walking one or
two flights of
stairs, and
refuse to

Their UN is
dying - and
taking young

it. See Tel

On

the UN data
dumped
additional
outrageous
sexual abuses,
Gabon and Togo
in the Central

Inner City

immediately in

"On UN sexual

being done for
the victims?
Also, again,
what is

answer, which
you refused to

asked you and
others in
writing on the

you
"immediately

about the new

any steps

Again, are new

being buried
elsewhere on

Inner City

asking in
writing
because banned
from the noon
briefings and
any follow up
questions, now
for more than
a year. On
August 24
Inner City

re-applied for
admission to
cover the UNGA

was summarily
rejected, with
no or only
Kafka-esque
reasoning.
Today, as
before none of
Inner City

questions,
including on
Cameroon, have
been answered.
This is a
request that
you
immediately
confirm
receipt of
these
questions and
requests. "
No
answer, and no

including
several state

UN GATE, Dec
2 – In the United Nations from which SG
Antonio Guterres has banned Inner City Press
883 days for asking about his complicity in
the killing of civilians in Cameroon,
poisoning them in Haiti with cholera and COVID
in South Sudan, and their mass imprisonment by
China in Xinjiang, on November 30 Inner City
Press wrote to the Mission of South Africa, as
incoming UN Security Council president, with
questions including about Western Sahara,
Haiti, Yemen and Cameroon.
Inner
City Press specifically asked to be provided
the WebEx codes to be able to ask its
questions. No answer.
But when
South Africa's self-described bureaucrat Jerry
Matjila took questions, his spokesman took
them in groups of three -- without protest
from the increasingly pathetic UNCA UN press
corpse -- allowing Matjila to evade even the
questions that were asked.
No one allowed
in asked about Cameroon, just the way Guterres
wants it.
And on December 2 to a group of insider NGOs
Matjila,
low-talking, on Cameroon praised the
failed work of Antonio Guterres, claimed that
ECOWAS or ECCAS is keeping an "eagle eye" on
Cameroon and that the UN Security Council is
acting appropriately on it. Video here,
including the lines "the Secretary General in
his wisdom is taking the responsibility to
help [inaudible] Paul Biya." He also claimed
there are agreements on language and
region(s).
No one
called him on it. UN world, in the era of
Guterres, is more and more decrepit.
Would
South Africa's former Ambassador Kumalo, no
bureaucrat at all, have colluded in this
Secretary General's censorship of Press? The
answer is clearly no. This is shameful.
This
too: during Matjila's "press" conference, the
Program of Work was not even on the website of
the UNSC. Still Inner City Press, which will
report all month about the UNSC with or
seemingly without any Matjila or South African
bureaucracy access, notes for example "Central
Africa" - that would / should be Cameroon - on
December 9, DRC on Dec 7, Yemen on Dec 14,
South Sudan Dec 15, Afghanistan Dec 17, and
Syria Dec 21.
On
Western Sahara, Matjila cravenly praised
Guterres' supposed effort on naming a UN
envoy, on which Guterres has failed for more
than a year. This President is a letdown on
Western Sahara.
Inner City Press live tweeted the Press-less
presser, here,
and streamed some, here.
When Guterres'
spokes- / hatchetman Stephane Dujarric holds
his noon briefings this month while refusing
all questions from Inner City Press despite an
on camera promise.
And South Africa and "bureaucrat" Matjila?

Guterres Bans
Press As State

Obsequious On
G20
SDNY
COURTHOUSE, Nov 20 – The G-20
meeting by Saudi Arabia's royals, killers of
journalist like Jamal Khashhogi, is being used
by UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres to
promote himself, for example in a scam
November 20 press conference with state media,
video here.
After
Guterres' distribution of a redacted copy of
his pre-summit letter, this was a six question
briefing Guterres banned critical Inner City
Press from. The questions included Turkish
state media asking for praise of the Turkish
Republic of Northern Cyprus, South African
state media coyly asking for criticism of
Trump and getting only evasion (Guterres will
take money from anyone); Qatar's Al Jazeera
asking for a Qatar sound byte, useless ANSA
lobbying a softball about "COVAX" and Guterres
blathering about mis-information, meaning any
criticism of him.
Before,
these stage directions from the UN
Correspondents Association, with Xinhua and
Saudi funded media on the board:
"Dear
colleagues, The Secretary-General will
hold a press briefing tomorrow, Friday,
November 20th at 12:30 PM in the Press
Briefing Room S-237 with a limited amount of
journalists present with distancing
restrictions and the rest will continue to
participate virtually on the Webex
platform. Only a maximum of 10 UN
correspondents with 6 resident correspondents,
1 non-resident correspondents [sic], and 3
photographers can be safely accommodated.
Thank you for your attention and
cooperation. Valeria Robecco President,
United Nations Correspondents Association."
Inner City
Press on the morning of November 20 asked
Guterres, spokesman Stephane Dujarric, Melissa
Fleming and others 100+ questions including,
on this, "As to SG Guterres's November 20
press conference, (1) how it is legitimate to
outsource access to the UN Correspondents
Association, which self-servingly decided six
"resident correspondents" (some of whom
publish nothing), 1 "non resident
correspondents" [sic] and three photographers
-- does that include or not include the
publicly-paid UN Photo staff, or those who
purport to both be UN Photo and resident
correspondents? On what basis is Inner City
Press, which has questions, banned even from
posing question(s) by WebEx? How is this not
just censorship?"
"Everyone accessing UN premises in New York
confirms that they have not
had
- Any
COVID-19 symptoms in the past 14 days
- A
positive COVID-19 test in the past 14
days
- Close
contact with a confirmed or suspected COVID-19
case in the past 14 days."
What a
scam - Guterres evaded quarantine, and his
spokesman Stephane Dujarric briefs maskless
daily, give feet above Al Jazeera's Bays who
takes off his mask. The UN Censorship Alliance
- with Saudi Arabia. Inner City Press will
have more on this - watch this site.

Transcript UN
Wants
Destroyed
UN GATE, Nov
13 – How corrupt is today's United Nations?
Even when a proceeding about the growing trend
of sexual harassment under Sec-Gen Antonio
Guterres is supposed to be public, when the
Press comes to cover it, it is denied access.
Video here.
And then
his kangaroo court demands that the Press he
excludes destroy evidence of UN sexual abuse,
or be further banned. This is today's UN.
The leaked evidence, precisely the type that
media is elsewhere celebrated for publishing
in cases like Ghislaine Maxwell (to whom the
UN is connected through Guterres' Partnerships
chief Amir Dossal), includes transcripts. Here
now, after yet another day of UN Spokesperson
Stephane Dujarric and "Verify" fraud Melissa
Fleming refusing to confirm or deny or answer
anything, is from one of the many transcript:
"I am not in a
state where I could leave the group because I
was too scared that he would follow me out of
the group, so I was staying there and seeing
where he exactly goes.... He was doing the
same thing with another UN staff, her name was
[VOLUNTARILY REDACTED BY INNER CITY PRESS], he
tried to grab her face, he tried to kiss her
and she actually pushed him away... also
[VOLUNTARILY REDACTED] of Accenture."
This
after Q&A with a male UN "investigator"
implying that is entirely normal in the UN for
a known sexual harasser to walk around with
twelve pack of beer and... other things. To be
continued. This is what Guterres is
covering up by banning the Press that covers
it, and now claiming the authority to order
the destruction of evidence leaked by
whistleblowers.
Under
Guterres, the UN has become functionally a sex
trafficking conspiracy, moving "peacekeepers"
and staff around to committed sexual abuse for
which they are shielded and protected by
Guterres, including with censorship.
On the morning of November 12 Inner City Press
in writing asked Dujarric, Fleming, Guterres
and others including Deputy Spokesman Farhan
Haq who deleted or "left" the questions on
WhatsApp, "Immediately on the Padula UNDT case
I have asked each of you about since November
3 explain on what basis the UN is now
demanding censorship of leaked evidence of UN
sexual harassment, in a UNDT order no less:
"until Mr. Lee has demonstrated to the
Tribunal that all illegal recordings have been
removed from the public domain and destroyed,
it will hold Mr. Lee in contempt of court and
prohibit him from attending any of its future
public hearings. " But Inner City Press
was banned from the UN by Antonio Guterres
before this, for reporting on UN abuses, and
its question have not been answered. This one
should be - on deadline."
Now
November 13, no answer at all. Today's UN is
full of corruption and censorship.
Now
after asking Guterres and his spokespeople
Stephane Dujarric and Melissa Fleming to
explain - they have refused - we are
publishing the order(s), including here
that
"According to
media reports, [the United Nations] regards
Inner City Press and Mr Lee as personae non
grata, and has withdrawn Mr Lee’s media
accreditation, as a result of myriad previous
instances in which Mr Lee has breached the
Organisation’s media guidelines.[reference to
footnote omitted] These breaches reportedly
included live-streaming a UN function that was
designated as private. [reference to footnote
omitted] … Mr Lee asserts in the Twitter
thread that he was denied entry into the
virtual hearing in this case. The tweet
includes a video which shows Mr Lee, using the
moniker ‘Press-Guest’, in the hearing’s
‘lobby’, awaiting admission by Tribunal
officials, and ultimately being denied entry.
[reference to annex omitted] The Applicant and
Applicant’s counsel recall seeing an entry
request under the name of ‘Inner City Press’
during his cross-examination of [the witness].
However, neither Applicant nor his counsel
recall seeing ‘Inner City Press’ or
‘PressGuest’ among the participants in the
hearing. … The Applicant thus believes that Mr
Lee’s assertion is correct: Tribunal officials
did not admit Mr Lee or Inner City Press into
the hearing. If so, Mr Lee or Inner City Press
could only have obtained images from the
hearing, including the confidential OIOS
witness testimony, from someone who was
admitted into the hearing: either a
participant or an observer (whether a [United
Nations] staff member or member of the
public).[reference to footnote omitted] In
other words, the information was apparently
leaked."
and then, and
order that Lee is "prohibited from attending
any future public hearings of the undersigned
Judge until he has demonstrated to the
Tribunal that all illegal recordings from the
hearing on 4 November 2020 have been removed
from the public domain and destroyed."
Inner
City Press has asked Dujarric, Amina J.
Mohammed and Fleming how the UN of Guterres
can purport to order the destruction of
whistleblower evidence of sexual abuse in the
UN. No answer.
But Inner City
Press was banned from the UN by Antonio
Guterres before this, so that Guterres could
conceal child rapes by UN peacekeepers and
drugging and raping by such staff members as
Karim Elkonany, who he never disciplined.
In this
case, Inner City Press every weekday since
November 3 has put written questions about the
case to UN Spokesman Stephane Dujarric,
Melissa Fleming and others - with no answer at
all. We are now asking about these orders.
We'll
have more on this, including publishing the
UNDT's absurd orders and more. Note that Inner
City Press knows full well how to comply with
rules in legal reporting - but any tribunal
that bans the Press, then demands censorship
of material leaked by whistleblowers, deserve
more not less coverage.
On
November 3 Inner City Press arrived online to
cover a sexual harassment proceeding in the UN
Dispute Tribunal. But despite the promise of
openness, it was blocked. Still, from
exhibits, this
live tweeted thread:
This UN staff
member Mr. Andrea Padula allegedly "a.
“grabbed [Ms. VC’s] face, leaned forward and
attempted to kiss her”; b. “when [Ms. VC]
resisted [him] kissing her, [he] forced [Ms.
VC’s] down and kissed her c. “grabbed [Ms.
MV], held her closely, and attempted to kiss
her”
Those on
this UN cover-up call, blocking the Press from
an ostensibly public UN sexual harassment
hearing, include Morten Michelsen, Omar Josef
Shehabi, but ultimately the rape-cover-up-man
in chief, @AntonioGuterres . He has
corrupted the entire Organization
In the
supposedly public UN "legal" proceeding that
Inner City Press was just denied access to,
here is an exhibit being presented - a UN
cubicle, with a Patricia Dann sign on it and
an apparently inflatable kangaroo. More
exhibits from Big Tony Gutters' Animal House
UN, presented in ostensibly public legal
proceeding that Inner City Press was blocked
from - note "Dance floor" - including the UN -

of @AntonioGuterres ' party boys is

Karim Elkorany went further, into drugging and

Update - the
United Nations under
@AntonioGuterres is spending the
public's money to hold sexual harassment
dances (and fly rapists like Elkorany in and
out of Iraq) - but when the Media tries to
cover a public proceeding, access denied.

Answer From
Guterres
UN GATE, Nov 6
– How corrupt is today's United Nations? Even
when a proceeding about the growing trend of
sexual harassment under Sec-Gen Antonio
Guterres is supposed to be public, when the
Press comes to cover it, it is denied access.
Video here.
From November 3 to November 6 Inner City Press
each day asked Guterres and his spokespeople
Stephane Dujarric and Melissa Fleming to
explain this, and to state what happened in
and was done about the case, below. No
answers.
Now
Inner City Press can report on another UN
Dispute Tribunal case, in which Karkara, "a
former Senior Advisor at the United Nations
Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment
of Women (“UN Women”) in New York, at the P-5
level, contests the decision to dismiss him
for serious misconduct. UN Women found that
the Applicant (a) sexually harassed, exploited
and abused two non-UN personnel; (b) committed
harassment and abuse of authority against an
intern with the United Nations; and (c)
misused the United Nations Information
Communication and Technology (“ICT”) resources
to obtain and distribute pornography to and
from his UN Women email account. 2. The
Applicant submits that the facts on which the
disciplinary measure was based are not
established by clear and convincing evidence.
The Applicant argues that the victims’
testimonies are not credible and that their
allegations were fabricated with the
assistance of several individuals who had
serious disputes with him. The Applicant also
submits that the investigation was biased and
ignored exculpatory evidence and several
witnesses breached the confidentiality
requirement by speaking to the media, thereby
undermining the integrity of the
investigation. 3. The Respondent submits that
based on the credible oral testimony of
victims, which are further corroborated by
other witnesses’ testimony and text messages
and the Global Positioning System (“GPS”)
records, the facts on which the disciplinary
measure was based are established by clear and
convincing evidence. 4. A hearing was held
before the Tribunal on 20-22 July 2020 at
which nine witnesses and the Applicant gave
testimony. 5. For the reasons below, the
Tribunal finds that the facts are established
by clear and convincing evidence, that they
amount to serious misconduct, and that the
imposed sanction was proportionate to the
offense."
Guterres' UN
is corrupt and he is covering it up with
censorship. Sources who contacted Inner City
Press about what they call expanding sleaze in
the UN blamed its spread on "dirty old man" SG
Guterres, as one called him. Inner City Press
has put the decision online on its
DocumentCloud, here.
Is this acceptable? Why no answer? Why the
cover up?

Of Nov 3
Election
Protests As

Favors Biden
Over Trump on
Zoom
UN GATE, Oct
30 – The UN is warning its US staff to
watching out on and after US election day.
Antonio Guterres, the UN Secretary General who
rarely takes questions and even had the Press
which asked him about his links to the
convicted UN briber CEFC China Energy thrown
out of the UN, rolled up in three large SUV
vehicles to the publicly-funded mansion he
usually lives alone in, just before the
COVID-19 pandemic spread in March Video here,
& YouTube
and Facebook.
Now on
October 30 from the UN -
which bans Inner City
Press but which gets
extensive leaks -
this: "SECURITY
BROADCAST New York
Fri 10/30/2020 12:00
PM
To:
Broadcast - UNHQ NY
Secretariat;
Broadcast -
Agencies, Funds and
Programmes The
Security and Safety
Service hereby
reminds that the
outcome of the
upcoming host
country elections
could spark both
celebrations and
spontaneous
demonstrations.
UNDSS is in contact
with our law
enforcement
counterparts in
monitoring the
situation where our
personnel are
located and will
provide updates and
advice, via security
email broadcasts, as
appropriate.
In these uncertain
times with COVID-19
and the possibility
of civil unrest, UN
staff and non-staff
personnel are
encouraged for their
own safety to avoid
crowds in
general.
Should UN staff and
non-staff personnel
encounter a protest,
it is recommended
that they follow the
general safety
advice
below:
•
Remain calm and
carefully navigate
to the edge of the
crowd or where it is
safest.
•
When possible, move
away and seek refuge
in a nearby
building, or doorway
until the crowd
passes.
•
When leaving the
protest area – walk
briskly and avoid
running.
•
If you are driving,
DO NOT stop your
vehicle in the area
of the protest. Keep
windows and doors
locked.
•
Drive carefully
through or around
the crowd at a low
speed and do not
honk your
horn.
•
Follow the
instructions from
local
authorities.
•
For emergencies,
contact local
authorities at
911.
Do keep abreast of
developments in your
area by tuning into
the live media
reports which are
providing real time
information."
On October 19 Guterres
bragged that he will
travel in two weeks to
Massachusetts
to meet his
semi-estranged
wife who lives in
Portugal, a
country from which
quarantine would be
required
in New York. This
is open
evasion of
quarantine
rules - or not
open, since it
was said in a
meeting
several disgusted participants
invited
Inner City
Press to
observe.
Perhaps most
significantly,
Guterres in the
meeting expressed
open preference in
the current US
president election
saying that if
one side wins,
"Net Zero
Emissions" can
be advance,
and if the
other (Trump)
wins, Guterres
and the UN
will rely on
bankers like
JPMorgan
Chase.
Guterres
also
spoke about
social media
platforms -
not the
censorship of
investigative
articles but the
need to
censors more,
citing
what he called
"Social
Dilemna" a
show he says
he is watching
on Netflix. We
will have more
on this.
Normally,
one could ask
Guterres'
spokespeople to
explain. But
they refuse to
answer
questions, even
for
clarification
of Spokesman
Stephane
Dujarric reference to
two, and
not one,
trips. They
are corrupt.
After
his return and
faux quarantine
for ten days,
including
maskless men
going in and
out of his
mansion, on
August 19 Guterres'
spokesman
Stephane
Dujarric said
that US
Secretary of
State would
be meeting
directly
with Guterres
in the mansion
on August 20 at 2 pm, see
below.
Meanwhile
Guterres ordered UN headquarters
staff to
return to New
York by
September 15 -
or two weeks
before, so
that they
(unlike him)
can
quarantine.
See video
leaked to
Inner City
Press, here,
including on
that Guterres'
contempt
for the public
is spreading.
On August 20 Inner
City Press, though
also covering
the indictment
and arraignment
of Steve
Bannon in the
SDNY
courthouse it
covers,
rushed uptown to
see if this
blatant violation
of quarantine
by Guterres
would take place.
It did:
streaming
Periscope
video here; now
on YouTube here.
There
were many UN
staff and
security, a
waste of
public money occasioned
only by
Guterres'
selfishness
and arrogance.

UN GATE, Oct
23 -- Antonio Guterres, the UN Secretary
General who rarely takes questions as he
undermines what's left of the UN's credibility
and even had the Press which asked him about
his links to the convicted UN briber CEFC
China Energy thrown out of the UN, rolled up
in three large SUV vehicles to the
publicly-funded mansion he usually lives alone
in, just before the COVID-19 pandemic spread

Now on October 23 - UN Day -
Guterres has bragged
to staff that "our
global survey to mark
this anniversary
confirmed that the
people of the world
continue to put their
trust in us to prevent
conflict, promote
human rights, advance
justice, protect our
planet and uphold the
equality of women and
men." This
as he daily covers
up rapes by UN
peacekeepers
and bans the Press
which asks, as he
fails on Cameroon
and the
UN has on other
conflicts
like in Sri Lanka
and as even
the Mayor of
New York won't
meet with UN
officials
like the PGA.
For UN
Day, as
simple one
example, the UN
invited
a speech by
Sri Lanka's
Mahinda Rajapaksa,
responsible
for the
Bloodbath on
the Beach, which
the UN supposedly
learned from.
