UN GATE / SDNY, Sept 23 – With the UN General Assembly week approaching, Inner City Press which closely covers the UN on September 12 wrote to Colombia's Mission to the UN:
Dear Permanent Representative Zalabata Torres:
I am writing to you as Permanent Representative to the United Nations, more than two weeks before the UN General Assembly High Level Week, formally requesting that your Mission act to ensure Press access to enter the UN and cover this UNGA session.
I am a journalist who covers the UN - and its General Assembly - closely. I also covered international affairs beyond the UN, as simply one example earlier this month see reporting of my questioning of the IMF at one of its briefings I routinely am allowed to enter and cover, "Sept 1, 2025, Decrypt, "El Salvador Is Splitting Up Its Bitcoin," by Mat Di Salvo,
More than 10 days later, nothing from Colombia, even as Petro in the UNGA dropping the H bomb, World War II style, and said that Tren de Aragua is not a criminal organization. Where is this headed? We'll have more, much more, on this.
