Good to see the UN has this situation firmly in hand & under control. ( This is what's known as sarcasm folks ).

What's been going on here for nearly 20 years shows me how completely inept the UN would like everyone to see, all the while running a fantastically brilliant  operation of one of the most clever of all money laundering schemes in the history of the world.
