It begins: Now Albania PR @HoxhaFer intones about @pressfreedom while his @AlMissionUN won't even answer written questions from Inner City Press (unlike the IMF, for example) - Ferit Hoxha is today servicing state media from China #Azerbaijan, #Saudi - hypocrisy
Now @AlMissionUN hands first question to Italian media, which again asks about... Italy. @HoxhaFer says, Grazie! For the softball question? What is his answer about the recently data dumped cases of sex abuse by UN peacekeepers? innercitypress.com/unprs83guterre…
More parochial games - @HoxhaFer gives 3d question to, what else, a reporter in from Albania, to ask a softball qeustion about Kosovo. Ferit Hoxha is reading from notes. Can't take real Press questions? pressfreedomtracker.us/all-incidents/…
Now the @AlMissionUN spokesperson, who has refused to answer Inner City Press' written questions from yesterday, hands a question to China state CCTV. @HoxhaFer has said nothing on China genocide against Uighurs, @mbachelet whitewash trip Image
Now yet another state media question picked by @AlMissionUN for @HoxhaFer: Turkey state media asks him about Turkey's "dispute" with Sweden and Finland joining NATO without arresting all Gulenists. None of Inner City Press' emailed questions have been answered
