As UN Staff Tell SG Guterres to Resign His UN Burma Envoy Bishop Like Him in China Pocket

UN GATE, April 21 –  How corrupt and decrepit has the UN system become under Antonio Guterres, in this case due to Guterres?

  On Burma Guterres named a China-linked envoy. He's been asked "We are alarmed by the Special Envoy’s business activities and connections to the mining industry and Chinese state-owned companies with possible or confirmed commercial interests in Myanmar, including Shenghe Resources and China Communications Construction Company. The UN’s response thus far is wholly unacceptable." That was Farhan Haq's evasions on Julie Bishop. 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.
