As UN Bans Inner City Press for 3057th Day Q on French Lafarge Case & GMax UNanswered

As UN Bans Inner City Press for 3057th Day Q on French Lafarge Case & GMax UNanswered by Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Book Substack UN GATE, Sept 1 – Inner City Press remains banned from UN Headquarters since July 2018, with no hearing and no appeal, and its July 25, 2026 application to enter in person and ask questions has drawn no response to date from  Secretary-General Guterres' office from UN Mission to which it has been raised - including France. Submitted at on the morning of September 1, 2026 to UN spokespeople, Antonio Guterres, Amina J. Mohammed, Melissa Fleming, as well as to the French Mission's Jerome Bonnafont, Marjolaine Bree and Anne-Claire Jucobin, et al: 1)  What are the comments and actions if any of SG Guterres and his spokesperson, and separately the French Mission to the UN as UNSC president and otherwise, on the US (EDNY) court case against Lafarge for colluding with the Assad regime in killing Americans, and today's argument by Larfarge to delay the deposition of their executive Jean-Marc Goldberg by citing the Hague Convention and "need' for involvement of a French Commissioner in the deposition?  2) On Cameroon, what are the comments and actions if any of SG Guterres and the French mission on this: new hearings are scheduled for August 31 and September 1, 2026, in the trial of the Martinez Zogo case, named after the radio host found dead in January 2023 in the suburbs of Yaoundé. On Monday, Colonel Otoulou, the lead investigator and commander of the gendarmerie legion in the Central Region at the time of the events, stated that several pieces of evidence suggest that Léopold Maxime Eko Eko, then head of the General Directorate of External Research (DGRE), was aware of the operation Days previous: What inquiry if any did the UN do after the conviction of Ghislaine Maxwell for sex trafficking, and Amir Dossal's service as 1 of 5 people on her Terramar Foundation's board? On what basis does Mr. Dossal (unlike Inner City Press which reports on sex trafficking and the UN) have access to the UN, for example yesterday at Ivonne A-Baki's stakeout? What was his role there, and in her team? What type of UN entrance pass does Mr. Dossal have? Past deadline: Need and am requesting access to cover, in person and at stakeout, the next UNSG straw poll results, Aug 21, Le360, "ONU: deuxième vote indicatif pour départager les huit candidats à la succession de Guterres / UN: Second indicative vote to decide between the eight candidates to succeed Guterres," "Stakeout on Next UNSG, Inner City Press is banned but live! - Stakeout by new UNSG candidate Ivonne A-Baki at the end - since can't enter and ask, was the figure with her the one on the board of Ghislaine Maxwell's Terrmar Foundation?" Link here On deadline: confirm receipt of that application, and state what, if anything, either office has done about it.  At the noon briefing, Stephane Dujarric took a few lame questions, but no answer to Inner City Press questioning submitted in the morning, and a ban on entering to ask the questions. Inner City Press will continue to ask these questions daily, and to report the silence when that is the answer. Watch this site. *** Your support means a lot.
