UN GATE, March 1 – With Mozambique taking over presidency of the UN Security Council on March 1, 2023, on February 28 Inner City Press wrote to the Mozambique Mission to the UN to request in advance access to its March 1 press conference by Ambassador Pedro Comissário Afonso.
To submit the request, Inner City Press wrote to the Mozambique Mission at its UN Blue Book address and at the UN email addresses listed by its purported partner - that is, mozambique at un dot int and mozambique dote unmission at gmail dot com
From the Mozambique Mission, nothing at all. The Mission is not on Twitter or other social media. The Ambassador dodges a question about a trip or junket to DRC, and said the UNSC's failure does not impact its credibility. Because it's already shot? Video here.
Inner City Press asked the Mozambique Mission, and the UN, about the MONUSCO scandal - sex for UN Volunteer jobs paid with taxpayers' funds - in the DRC Congo. Inner City Press exclusive here. Also: "On December 2, 2022 I was told to file an appeal with DSS and I did on December 5 - you should ensure response (there has been none) and granting. See here."
This while Inner City Press is banned from entry, which it had for years until it exposed UN corruption. No response to this July 2021 appeal. Impunity.
Inner City Press will be covering the Mozambique presidency, quite actively, this month.
Our requests and questions remain; we will publish any responses, and also on non-responses. Watch this site.
