UN GATE, Dec 24 – How corrupt is today's United Nations? Well, on Christmas Eve 2024 as the UN Fifth (Budget) Committee rubber stamped overspending, one complaint was that the US does not pay enough.
The outgoing Administration's represented appeared as a slacker, in a sweater, no jacket, next to Tanzania's representative in a full suit.
The outgoing rep of Australia cried that she is leaving the UN. Argentina spoke against the overrated "Pact for the Future."
There is no oversight, no accountability. It was while covering the Budget Committee in 2018 that Inner City Press was roughed up and ousted from the UN on orders of Secretary General Antonio Guterres.
There has never been an appeal allowed, no explanation given. No answer to pro bono letters from the law firms of Quinn Emanuel and Duane Morris.
Will 2025 bring reversal and accountability? Watch this site
