GATE, Nov 27 --
While UN Secretary
General Antonio
Guterres cries poor
and scales back
"official travel,"
he has just made
another undisclosed
trip to Lisbon paid
for the public, this
time appearing at a
concert there on
November 9 for Carlos
do Carmo,
noted in the
Portuguese media here.
So
how much did it cost
the public, taking
UN Security there?
Where did they stay?
Inner City Press
asked on November
11, before the day's
UN noon briefing
which it is banned
from entering to
attend by corrupt
Guterres, for the
now 511th day. No
answers.
Instead
on November 27, from
corrupt Stephane
Dujarric, this: "the
Secretary‑General
concluded his
travels to Germany
today with a visit
to what remains of
the Berlin
Wall. He noted
that, 30 years ago,
he had watched with
deep emotion the
fall of the Berlin
Wall. And he
said that, as he
stopped by the
Berlin Wall Memorial
this week, he was
reminded that while
the divisions no
longer exist within
the city of Berlin,
physical and virtual
walls to separate
people continue to
be built in too many
places. On
Saturday, the
Secretary‑General
will be arriving in
Madrid, Spain, to
attend the UN
Climate Change
Conference, known as
COP25. He will
speak at the opening
ceremony on Monday
and will call on
world leaders to
ramp up their
ambition to achieve
the targets set by
the Paris
Agreement. He
will also urge them
to ensure the Paris
Agreement rulebook
is finalized.
The
Secretary‑General is
expected to meet
with young climate
activists, and he
will also hold
bilateral meetings
with world
leaders. He
will be back in New
York on Tuesday." As
Inner City Press
reported, just
another pretext, for
another trip to
Lisbon. Dujarric
refuses to answer
any Inner City Press
question.
On
November 23 Inner
City Press went to
check out the Sutton
Place mansion in
which Big Tony lives
on the public dime.
There, fully three
vans were in front.
When Inner City
Press started live
streaming, one left
and backed into a
dead end around the
corner. Finally
Guterres slipped out
though his / your
back door, like a
common criminal to
avoid questions or
legal process and
sped away. Video here.
Guterres is corrupt.
And did
Guterres only agree
to go to the Paris
Peace Forum, with
sponsor Gulbenkian
which tried to sell
its oil company to
UN briber CEFC China
Energy and whose
payments to Guterres
have been omitted
from his financial
disclosure covering
2016, as a fig leaf
for his Lisbon trip?
Will he meet
dictator Paul Biya
at the PPF? Watch
this site.
Also,
this high cost hire
for Guterres'
propaganda / vanity
shop: "Zoe Paxton,
head of media at the
Department for
International
Development (DfID)
and a rising star in
the Government
Communication
Service, is leaving
for a top comms job
at the United
Nations." This comes
right after his
hiring from McKinsey
of Peter Reid for a
position that even
Ban Ki-moon left
empty, because
wasteful, for a
decade. This is
Guterres' hypocrisy.
On October 14 Inner
City Press went to
check it out, from
gate. Periscopes I,
II,
III,
IV,
V,
VI,
VII.
On
October 17, even
banned from entering
the UN for the 471st
day by corrupt
Guterres, Inner City
Press can
exclusively report
that in the
closed-door October
16 meeting of the UN
Staff Union and
Controller
Chandramouli
Ramanathan, the
latter was asked
about Guterres' many
trips in 2019
specifically those
to "Portugal where
his life lives" and
what asked how that
is accountable?
Ramanathan, in
Guterres fashion,
dodged - but the
questioning
continues, until
there is
accountability.
