UN GATE, Jan 2 –
Algeria took over the UN
Security Council presidency on
January 1, 2025 - while Inner
City Press is still banned
from the UN, despite its June
19 application.
On December 30,
Inner City Press wrote to the
Algeria Mission: "This is a
timely request that you allow
Inner City Press to enter the
UN and cover, and/or provide
the WebEx pass code(s)
to access Algeria's UNSC
Presidency press briefing by
Algeria's Ambassador Amar
Bendjama on January 2, 2025 at
1 pm. I have questions to ask
on what you will do this month
about Gaza, UNRWA and Western
Sahara / MINURSO, Sudan,
Ukraine, DRC and Rwanda, about
the SDNY indictment involving
Turkey's Mission to the UN as
well as the coups in Gabon and
Niger and the conflicts in
Ukraine, Ethiopia, Cameroon,
Yemen and Libya - and on
ongoing cases of sexual abuse
and exploitation by UN
peacekeepers, and Missions'
abuses in NYC, on many of
which Inner City Press first
reported - including its
current scoops on Colombia,
DRC, Sudan, Libya and
Somalia."
The
Algeria Mission did not
answer, even to its address
listed in the UN Blue Book.

Inner City
Press on June 19, 2024 again applied
to the UN for access, as it
gives 100s, to cover the UNGA
week. Inner City Press has a
NYC Press Pass and writes
about the UN. From Algeria and
its UN Mission, nothing.
