UN GATE, Sept 18
– As the UN General Assembly
without France's Macron or the
UK Prime Minister 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 Sunday,
September 17, Guterres issued
canned readout including with
Ramaphosa with no mention of
Ukraine.
On Monday,
September 18 France's FM
Catherine Colonna bloviated
for more than half an hour
about France at UNGA, no
response or even question
about the rejection of France
in more and more countries of
Africa. Instead, a canned
question from AFP, sitting
next to French PR de la
Riviere, silent and cheering
on the ban of Press.
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 response
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, give a speech this
week it costs $800
or $2000 to attend.
Today's UN is
totally corrupt.
