UN GATE,
May 9 – How corrupt and
irrelevant has the UN system
become under Secretary General
Antonio Guterres, in this case
due to Guterres?
Amid
the rising tensions between
India and Pakistan, two
nuclear powers, Guterres has
had no impact at all. Then
this from Marco Rubio: "Over
the past 48 hours, Vice
President Vance and I have
engaged with senior Indian and
Pakistani officials. I am
pleased to announce the
Governments of India and
Pakistan have agreed to an
immediate ceasefire and to
start talks on a broad set of
issues at a neutral site."
Finally
the UN chimed in, having done
nothing the lessen the
conflict, perhaps implying it
had by giving no credit: "The
Secretary-General welcomes the
ceasefire agreement between
India and Pakistan.. The
United Nations stands ready to
support efforts aimed at
promoting peace and stability
in the region." Ready?
Irrelevant. And corrupt -
Guterres' UN answers no Press
questions.
On the below, he
and Dujarric have not answered
at all:
Today's
earlier example is the
UN FAO's purchase order for
fuel in Darfur, controlled by
the RSF militia.
Whistleblowers have sent Inner
City Press photos of the
purchase orders
but from the UN, no answers to
Inner City Press
Inner City
Press, which Guterres has
banned from "his" UN, has
asked his chief censor Melissa
Fleming why she now offers
spin to questions about having
ignored Haiti and Sudan, while
refusing to even answer
letters from pro bono law
firms Quinn Emanuel and Duane
Morris about it:
"examine the
U.N.’s media branch, the
Department of Global
Communications, for its role
in churning out anti-Israel
propaganda.... Melissa
Fleming, U.N.
Under-Secretary-General for
Communications, to clarify the
department’s allegations of
misinformation and
disinformation, and to
describe why "strong
messaging" was required of the
department. Fleming explained
that the Department needed to
"clearly explain the role" of
the U.N. and its humanitarian
agencies, and analyze
"information environments to
better understand trends that
might pose risk to the U.N.’s
work." .. Fleming did not
state how much time has been
devoted to the Haiti or Sudan
crisis cells. - explain
that, and why Fleming has yet
to see fit to respond in any
way to inquiries for Inner
City Press by pro bono law
firms Duane Morris & Quinn
Emanuel
Waiting...
Guterres had the
critical Press roughed
up and thrown out. There
has been no due process since,
not even a response to Guterres'
Melissa Fleming to a pro bono inquiry
for Inner City Press from the
law firm Quinn Emanuel. We'll
have more on this.
