COURTHOUSE,
Aug 29 – After a United
Nations legal official was
filmed saying those in the UN
are terrified of a possible
second Trump term as US
President, a formal complaint
against him was filed with the
UN Ethics Office by a staff
who, fearing retaliation, sent
a copy to Inner City Press,
banned from the UN by SG
Antonio Guterres:
Date: On
Thursday, 29 August 2024 at

serious misconduct by Mr.
Jorge Paoletti Martinez (P2
1510 ASSOCIATE LEGAL OFFICER,
Index Number 10086542)
To:
oioshotline,

Dear OIOS and OLA
Colleagues By now you
would likely have seen the
article in the New York Post
published today: The United
Nations is “terrified” at the
prospect of a second Trump
presidency, according to a
leaked conversation with a
senior official at the global
agency. “I’m not sure
the United Nations is going to
survive a second term from
Donald Trump,” Jorge Paoletti,
an associate legal officer at
the UN Office of Legal Affairs
in New York, said
This
conduct is a violation of
Staff Regulations 1.2(f),
1.2(g) and 1.2(i), Staff Rule
1.2(t), as well as Section 4
of ST/AI/2000/13 Staff
Regulation 1.2(f) “staff
members shall ensure that
their views and convictions do
not adversely affect their
official duties or the
interests of the United
Nations....
Staff Rule 1.2(t)
“Staff members shall not,
except in the normal course of
official duties or with the
prior approval of the
Secretary-General, engage in
any outside activities that
relate to the purpose,
activities or interests of the
United Nations. Outside
activities include but are not
limited to: (i) Issuing
statements to the press, radio
or other agencies of public
information; (ii) Accepting
speaking engagements; (iii)
Taking part in film, theatre,
radio or television
productions...
Given what was
done to Kennedy for losing
sensitive data later published
by Inner City Press and to
Emma Reilly for talking to the
press, this "senior official"
(P-2 lol) must be sanctioned
for bringing the organisation
into disrepute.
Just
because he works for our
offices in OLA should not give
him preferential status.
I have submitted
this report anonymously for
fear for retaliation.
Watch this
