SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 19 – The G-20 meeting
by Saudi Arabia's royal,
killers of journalist like
Jamal Khashhogi, is being used
by UN Secretary General
Antonio Guterres to promote
himself.
After Guterres'
distribution of a redacted
copy of his pre-summit letter,
now to a briefing Guterres has
banned critical Inner City
Press from, 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. We will organize
this on a first-come,
first-served basis.
Please send your name no later
than 5:00 PM TODAY with the
subject line "RSVP November
20th" if you want to
attend. The first 10
names will receive a
confirmation from the UNCA
Office and will be sent to
MALU. ONLY those who received
the confirmation email will be
able to attend the briefing.
(No need to reply if you do
NOT want to
attend) We will
send a note if/when RSVP's
reach capacity. [Still none,
as of 8 pm]
Thank you
for your attention and
cooperation. Valeria
Robecco President, United
Nations Correspondents
Association
By
swiping their UN I.D. upon
entering UN premises, 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.
