UN GATE, May 9 –
In the United Nations from
which Secretary General
Antonio Guterres has banned
Inner City Press 1042 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 May 3 Inner City
Press wrote to the Mission of
China, as incoming UN Security
Council president, with
questions including about
Cameroon, Honduras, Yemen,
Western Sahara, Haiti and
Libya.
None have been
answered, and corrupt UNSG
Antonio Guterres, concealing
his links to convicted UN
briber CEFC China Energy,
continues to ban Inner City
Press from the UN.
Now on May 9,
China's mission to the UN has
tweeted out this
ghoulish and ham-handed
propaganda: "Xinjiang is a
vibrant and diverse place.
People in Xinjiang enjoy both
traditional and modern
cultural life. Like many other
places, street dance is very
popular among young people and
children in Xinjiang." Yes,
break dancing amid mass
imprisonment.
On May 3
Inner City Press specifically
asked Ambassador Zhang Jun who
blocks
Inner City Press on Twitter,
to be provided the WebEx codes
to be able to ask its
questions:
"This is a timely
request that you sent Inner
City Press the pass code(s) to
access your UNSC Presidency
press briefing on May 3 at
3:30 pm. I have questions to
ask on what you will do this
month about the conflicts in
Myanmar, Cameroon, Yemen and
Libya - and on the sexual
harassment charges against
Fabrizio Hochschild on which
Inner City Press first
reported in April 2019, for
example - Inner City Press is
asking to be provided with
access / the passwords to your
China mission's stakeouts and
press conferences this month
as UNSC
President.
As I hear that you may be
moving the Council back into
its Chamber, either way I
would also like to ask you to
instruct MALU / USG-DGC
Fleming to allow me to enter
to cover it, for Inner City
Press.
Separately, given that I have
submitted to the PGA a letter
and CV in connection with SG
election process, to cause a
debate on UN press freedom and
accountability, this is a
formal request that you
circulate my and other
candidates' letter and CVs to
member states, or immediately
inform me why not, given that
no written rule required a
member state's endorsement to
run. Please
immediately confirm receipt,
and provide the passcode or
state why not."
No answer.
Nothing. Not even a
confirmation of receipt.
Meanwhile, the Chinese
Mission's Twitter profile
links, as its website, to ads
including for an air fryer, here.
Then Zhang Jun held a
May 3 press conference with
not a single question on
anything in Africa, much less
Cameroon.
Instead,
soft question questions first
from the president of UN, the
UN Censorship Alliance,
softballs on Burma. Thread here.
Short video here.
And
because we'll be covering
them, apparently despite the
censorship by China's Mission,
the May 3 Program of Work has
multilateralism on May 7
(when, Zhang Jun bragged,
Guterres had his one-man
debate), virtue signaling on
Jerusalem added on May 10,
Yemen on the 12th, Libya ICC
on the 17th, Syria on April 6
and 26, and some
debates. We'll have more on
this.
