UN GATE, Sept 18
– As the UN General Assembly
without France or the UK
claimed to get underway on
Saturday, September 16, 2023
in a temporary building
wastefully built on its North
Lawn, across First Avenue
there was a Burmese rally.
Inner City Press, banned from
the UN by pro-China UNSG
Antonio Guterres, covered it.
Video here.
On Monday,
September 18, Guterres issued
canned readout including that
he "met with H.E. Mr. Evariste
Ndayishimiye, President of the
Republic of Burundi. They
discussed efforts to promote
socio-economic development in
the country [and] exchanged
views on ongoing regional
efforts to promote peace in
the Great Lakes region and in
Somalia." No mention of UN
human rights office's ouster
from the country, nor the
plight of those the UN has
ignored and abandoned.
The Burma rally
urged the UN to credential
NUG's Kyaw Moe Tun. But of
course they won't: China is on
the UN Credentials Committee.
And Guterres' UN
Spokesperson Stephane Dujarric
refused dozens of written
questions from Inner City
Press about the junta's plot
to kill Kyaw Moe Tun, as
prosecuted in the SDNY court
Inner City Press covers daily
since being thrown
out of the UN by
Guterres, and kept out by his
Melissa Fleming.
Fleming, as
reported, refused to respond
to a June 19 application
by Inner City Press to
enter and cover this UNGA, and
then a pro bono law firm
letter.
She will,
however, apparently still give
a speech this week it costs $800
or $2000 to attend.
Today's UN is
totally corrupt.
