UN GATE, Aug 23 –
Antonio Guterres, the UN
Secretary General who rarely
takes questions and even had
the Press which asked him
about the mass killings in
Cameroon 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.
In
August with
most New
Yorkers locked
down
or, if they
leave the City
and returned,
harassed by
contact
tracers,
Guterres went
on an unannounced
publicly
funded
vacation to
Portugal.
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 has
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.
Now
on August 23, Inner
City Press is
exclusive
informed by
multiple
UN-Geneva whistleblowers
that things
are even worse
in Geneva, as
Guterres' double
standards
put UN staff
members' lives at
risk:

Dear
colleagues,
Since virtual
solutions
cannot fully
replace human
contact nor
many of our
functions, I
believe we
need to
support these
requests and
make better
use of the
Palais des
Nations
premises
(within our 60
percent
occupancy
limit).
From 15
September
2020, all UN
Geneva
Secretariat
personnel will
be required to
work on site
on at least a
part-time
basis, unless
they require
special
protection.
Those of you
who are
currently
teleworking
outside the
duty station
in the context
of COVID-19
(as an
alternate
working
arrangement)
will be
expected to
return and be
ready to
report to the
premises from
15 September.
You should
therefore make
the related
travel
arrangements
to return,
taking into
consideration
any applicable
travel
restrictions
and quarantine
requirements.
Exceptional
requests for
teleworking
outside the
duty station
beyond 15
September
should be
brought to the
attention of
the Human
Resources
Management
Service and
will be
treated on a
case-by-case
basis.
(Signed)
Tatiana
Valovaya
Director-General
of the United
Nations Office
at Geneva
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.
