SDNY COURTHOUSE, April 1 â How
irrelevant has the UN become under Antonio Guterres and
Missions like this month's President of the UN Security
Council, Bahrain?
Well, on April 1 while Bahrain and Guterres
were barring Inner City Press from a UN press conference
into which they allowed a UN Correspondents Association
member who did a fundraiser with sex traficker Ghislaine
Maxwell, in Washington the International Monetary Fund,
World Bank, and International Energy Agency said they are
forming a coordination group to respond to the economic
impacts of the Middle East war.
Antonio Guterres often pretends that while
failing on wars and transparency, he is linking the UN
into the Bretton Woods institutions. In fact, he is as
invisible as his deputy Amina J. Mohamed, both made even
softer by the softball press corpse they and Melissa
Fleming have curated in UNHQ, GMax's old stomping (and
grooming) grounds.
The three institutions decried "one
of the largest supply shortages in global energy market
history," with impacts they characterized as "substantial,
global, and highly asymmetric." They spoke of coordinated
data sharing, financing assessments, concessional lending,
and risk mitigation tools.
Meanwhile Guterres' UN is blowing money in
South Sudan on empty planes, in Colombia and
elsewhere.
This is the culmination of a decade
of UN decay under Guterres.The contrast will be on display
at the IMF and World Bank Spring Meetings in Washington
April 13-16, which Inner City Press has been accredited to
enter and cover, unlike Guterres' UN which like Bahrain
with its broken website and chat bot won't even answer
written questions. Watch this site.
