In Corrupt Guterres UN World 8th ITU Complaint Published by Banned Inner City Press

by Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Book Substack

UN GATE, Feb 11 – How corrupt is the UN-world system under Antonio Guterres, who bans the Press which investigates? This example is again from ITU, International Telecommunication Union, whose whistleblowers have, like others, reached out to banned Inner City Press:

Dear Matthew Russell Lee:

At the recent Geneva Group meeting, the ITU went "cap in hand" to implore Member States to cover a supposed shortfall in its budget, including in satellite network filings-allegedly 7 million CHF against a 14 million CHF requirement for 2024. However, whistleblowers reveal a different story:  Deferred Revenue Maneuver: The ITU actually received an additional 5 million CHF (bringing the total to 12 million CHF, not 7) but is labeling this as a deferred payment for 2025.

This creative accounting of revenue that has been received by ITU is designed to exaggerate a fiscal crisis, pressuring Member States to increase their contributions.

Misallocation of Funds: Any extra funds obtained from these increased contributions are poised to be funneled into divisions such as Gender, Legal, HR, and Transformation-departments that seem to serve Bogdan-Martin’s inner circle-while the revenue-generating Bureau, is left neglected. One whistleblower bluntly stated, “It’s a cynical shell game-using fabricated crises to shake down public funds that ultimately keep Bogdan-Martin’s cronies in power.”

More coming.

After repeated refusal to respond by spokespeople including Stephane Dujarric and Melissa Fleming, here was the first complaint on Inner City Press' DocumentCloud here.
