@UNWatch@antonioguterres@StephDujarric@Genghe1@Dolkun_Isa@UNHumanRights For those paying attention to the @UN's constantly changing story, remember those "protective measures" they claimed? Check the time stamps on the emails. That's Central European Time. He Geng is in California and would have been asleep.

Today marks eight years since I found out about and reported @UNHumanRights secretly handing names of #Uyghur, #Tibetan and other activists to China. @UN has lied to governments, to the press, to the activists themselves. @antonioguterres investigate and stop complicity. /1
Some @UN stories:
2013-2017: never happened, to @EU_UNGeneva and all govts who asked.
2017: ongoing, in a press release
2018: happened, but @UN was only complicit in international crimes for a full DECADE (2006-2015), so move along.
2019: ongoing, in sworn court testimony. /2
If I had invented such an egregious policy, firing me would be easy. @UN is now investigating me FOR TELLING THE TRUTH. I was not "authorised" to do that, but @UN_Spokesperson was "authorised" to lie. An 8-year cover up implicates all of senior management. /3
The @UN is investigating and planning to fire me for blowing the whistle to national govts on @UN giving names of their nationals to China, so China could target their families. @UN has *never* investigated those responsible or stopped handing over names. /1
The person who ordered the investigation (@UN's head of management) is *supposed* to be under investigation for retaliating against me. @antonioguterres, why did you refuse your own Ethics Office saying the investigation into the retaliators should be referred externally? /3 of 3
.@UNHumanRights still claims a right to lie. So, here's the truth @hrw@AmnestyEU@UNWatch@ISHRglobal, @WIN. This is a quote from the final Ethics findings: "the management was naturally and perhaps primarily interested in good relations with the member state (China);" /1
the Complainant (me) was interested in human rights and protection of human rights activists. OHCHR was, by virtue of the Complainant’s whistleblowing, placed in a very awkward diplomatic position by a human rights issue that it struggled to handle well... /2
A whistleblower’s reporting of such a practice, which was contrary to fundamental UN principles and values, is exactly the sort of activity that must be protected; it is far more important than minor infractions of bureaucratic rules." I couldn't agree more. /3
