Substack UN GATE,
June 15 – How corrupt and
decrepit has the UN system
become under Antonio Guterres,
in this case due to Guterres?
Today's example is again from
the Office of the High
Commission for Human Rights,
to which Guterres appointed
his unqualified crony Volker
Turk more than two years ago.
From OHCHR staff - "Dear Matthew Russell Lee, Many thanks for exposing corruption in UN under Antonio Guterres and his cronies like Volker Turk Unfortunately, in Geneva morale is very low. Tony’s crony, megalomaniac Volker Turk believes his own lies. Crony Volkie Turk launches his “Global Alliance†praised by member states that know how to manipulate him, to avoid criticism (like Mexico, smart). Toxic Volker Turk lives in a parallel universe with no funding for OHCHR as member states do not trust him. Volker Turk lost Palais Wilson after 30 years and because of his mismanagement. Worse he has fired 25% of the staff. Where is OIOS in this? Nowhere. OIOS, we know is an instrument to repress whistleblowers, thanks you corrupt Kim Taylor. OIOS is Tony’s Sturmtruppers but UN senior management are the informants. It is like Titanic orchestra playing the melody of OHCHR‘s crónic of a forest old death. Volker Turk is weak and corrupt but his ego reaches the Mont Blanc peak before him. Turk is sure he will stay another term, some member states are so happy with an irrelevant HC. In the meantime he wastes the funds he does not have and OHCHR staffers lose their jobs. In OHCHR either you are unemployed already or you are in the next list to have your contract not renewed. But his cronies get promotions (thanks to those countries who turn their blind eye to corruption, mismanagement and nepotism. We all cry the loss of Palais Wilson and blame Volker Turk for losing it. Volkie symbolizes a cast of UN privileged civil servants (and his Turk’s cronies) who hardly spend any time in the field but they claim they know. So detached from reality. hey AmBWaltz, imagine if Volker Turk was outing his money in Africa, Middle East, Asia, Latin America or Eastern EuroPe, that’s todays OHChR under. How many field offices could be kept with that money in Sudan, Cambodia, Colombia, Haiti or Congo? Volkie, “field mattersâ€. Stop fueling the staff and member states. Put your ego aside and do it for us. Please sno not stay on OHCHR. We are sure fat Tony can give you some other post where you can show your endless talents.Amb Waltz, the
ball is on your court." Fat chance. So far,
nothing from Mike Waltz, seen
skydiving in France then on a
lone Sunday show on ABC -
self-booked? Meanwhile both
Big Tony and Amina junketed on
April 15 to the IMF which
Inner City Press is accredited
to cover, and at which it
asked questions - but not of
Tony, as UNCTAD denied Inner
City Press to its "side
event." The UN is dying, or
being killed off. There's a new
NextSG candidate, Maria
Fernanda Espinosa. Two days
ago she and her sponsor
Antigua and Barbuda were sent
a questionnaire about about
this. So far, nothing. Watch
this site. Inner City Press
re-applied to re-enter the UN
on June 19, 2025 - no answer
at all from Melissa Fleming,
Tel Mekel, Stephane Dujarric
for six months, then a denial
with no reason at all given.
Today's UN is corrupt.
