UN GATE, July 15 – How corrupt is today's UN under Antonio Guterres? Today Inner City Press focuses in again on Sudan, specifically Guterres' failing and wasteful UNISFA mission in Abyei.
Dear Matthew Russell Lee:
In the first week of July 2025, Odenigbo issued orders for the complete dismantling and destruction of the KADUGLI site, signaling the permanent closure of the camp. This reckless decision resulted in the destruction of critical infrastructure, valued in the millions of dollars. Despite this irreversible damage, Odenigbo shockingly reversed her stance just days later, instructing senior staff to somehow sustain the camp despite the extensive destruction.
Details of the Destruction: All UN barcodes, signs, and official markings were stripped from UN-owned assets, leaving the site in an unrecognizable state. Equipment worth millions of dollars was destroyed on-site, rendering vital resources useless and irreparable. This hasty, ill-thought-out, and poorly coordinated action has ignited deep frustration and anger among senior UN officials, including the two Under-Secretaries-General (USGs), Mr. Khari and Mr. LaCroix [who has done nothing about the accelerating rapes by his UN "peacekeepers," stoked by Guterres' regime of impunity and banning of critics and Press.]
Among the senior UNHQ officials now tasked with managing this fallout and attempting to restore functionality to the KADUGLI site are: Anna Lisa Gazzola Maurizia Calo Vadim Potanin Massimo Lo Schiavo Priya Sehgal Yuriy Kryvoruchko Stewart Simms Barbara Reggi Istvan Koever Irena Erakovic Yohannes Nigussie Raihan Khalil and many more...
Who will be held accountable for the cost of restoring the UN equipment and rebuilding the KADUGLI camp? Given the millions of dollars in damage caused by the reckless decisions surrounding the camp's closure, it’s crucial to know who will foot the bill for these preventable losses. Will the UN absorb the financial burden of this crisis, or will those responsible for this catastrophic failure be held to account?
The Press must be allowed back in to ask.
Now this, from UN whistleblowers through Inner City Press:
...Under the UN80 reform, what we know so far is, among the positions to cut (mainly individuals from the base) there are 3 P5 positions. It seems they've been singled out by either their sexual orientation or due to their nationality and gender (female). Competent and capable women singled out, cornered to the point where their careers are about to be terminated in retaliation
And what is the UN of Antonio Guterres doing about all this? Nothing - but banning the Press that reports it. On June 19, 2025, reapplied to re-enter, here, to get answers in person to these questions since they do not answer written questions - totally corrupt.
We'll have more on all this. Keep the info coming.
