| UN
Guterres Lust for 2d Term Has Azoulay Echo
With Senegal Mouthing Its Support
By Matthew
Russell Lee &
sources,
Exclusive
UN GATE, Feb 17 –In the
UN system,
corrupt official from
Antonio Guterres to
Audrey Azoulay at UNESCO
try to lock in
member states to
support them for
UNmerited
second terms.
At
UNESCO the
circular
letter dated 2
February, by
which the
President of
the General
Conference,
Ambassador
Altay
Cengizer, was
calling the
UNESCO
secretariat,
led by the
French Audrey
Azoulay, to
respect rules
and order,
created more
than a
political
turmoil within
the Agency.
At the
burning
request of DG
Azoulay, the
groups for the
European and
Arab regions
met and
addressed ways
of possible
retaliation.
However, all
those pathetic
“revenge”
brainchildren
of Azoulay
have been
quickly
dropped,
following the
article of
Inner City
Press
revealing her
plans (here).
After
painfully
digesting the
“disloyalty”
of countries
like Germany,
Finland, the
UK,
Switzerland,
Jordan,
Tunisia or
Morocco,
Azoulay
remembered
that she can
always count
upon her
inveterate
African
devotees such
as the
Senegalese
Ambassador to
UNESCO,
Souleymane
Jules Diop.
[Inner
City Press
has covered
the corruption
of the Senegal
Mission to the
UN in New
York, here.]
At her
immediate
instruction,
Mr Diop signed
a letter by
which he is
setting new
standards of
post-colonial
grovelling
before the
French DG
Azoylay.
To
realize how
pitiful the
Senegalese
ambassadors
is, it is
enough to
compare his
letter (here)
with the
letter sent by
Japan for
instance (here).
Probably,
the difference
on the form
and on the
substance is
also due to
the fact that,
according to
witnesses, the
Senegalese
letter of
support to
Azoulay has
been drafted
in her Cabinet
and then
presented to
the ambassador
for signature
as per the
good
traditions of
FrancAfrique.
This is
not the first
time when Mr
Souleymane
Diop is
abasing
himself in
order to
please the
French. Last
year, during
the debate on
“Priority
Africa”, when
the discussion
reached the
controversial
item on the
objectives set
by the Africa
Union with
regard to the
repatriation
of all African
cultural
heritage, the
position of
the ambassador
of Senegal in
Paris differed
radically from
the official
position of
the national
authorities of
Senegal in
Dakar.
Unlike the
ambassador,
the Senegalese
government is
fully in favor
of the
unconditional
repatriation
of their
stolen
cultural
heritage. T
herefore,
the support to
the French
position by
the ambassador
of Senegal,
Souleymane
Diop, came as
a surprise for
most African
delegations,
since no one
ever expected
that a former
Minister
Delegate to
the Prime
Minister of
Senegal would
dare going
publicly
against the
position of
his own
government as
directed by
the President
Macky
Sall.
The
question is
what are the
personal
benefits for
the ambassador
of Senegal in
behaving
against the
positions of
his own
government in
order to
please the
French DG.
There is
clearly a
private hidden
agenda behind
the game of
the
Ambassador”,
said a source
inside the
Africa group
to Inner City
Press. “France
is using him
too much in
their
political
conspiracies
and he will
definitely
face difficult
times ahead”.
Ohers were
blunter in
their
assessment:
“During the
debate on
Priority
Africa, the
Ambassador of
Senegal got
politically
‘carbonized’
by France for
no gain at
all. If they
continue doing
so, soon there
will be no
support left
in the African
group for
their DG
reelection
plans”.
The
debate on
Priority
Africa also
demonstrated
the
intellectual
inability of
ADG Matoko to
defend the
political
orientation
fixed by his
boss Azoulay.
Supposed to
retire and
leave the
Paris based
Agency, he
“kept
demonstrating
his high
standards of
brain-sterility
and docile
incompetence.
Clearly, ADG
Matoko is not
an asset to
this
administration”,
said an
ambassador
usually
sympathetic to
the French
regime. “They
are losing it
all”.
Even
so, by
supporting and
praising
regularly the
nonexistent
work done by
the French DG
Azoulay,
ambassadors of
EU member
states, Nordic
countries and
those from the
former
colonial
French-Africa,
corroborated
their taste
for “swimming”
in the
“cesspool”.
This is where
UNESCO stands
today, a
Zombie-land
propitious to
the
flourishing of
corruption,
embezzlement,
abuse of power
and
nepotism.
This is
Antonio
Guterres' UN -
corrupt
colonialism.
We will have
more on that.
