UN Secretary-General Guterres sounds alarm:

Worst cashflow crunch in Years!

26 July 2018

WORLD CURRENCIES 173755-165724-FXGlobe.j

The United Nations is at risk of running out of cash, the UN chief has warned, urging Member States

to pay their mandatory contributions on time

and in full, so that the world body can

continue to deliver on its key mandates.

"In a letter to UN staff, Secretary-General António Guterres stated that he had “written to Member States regarding the troubling financial situation facing the United Nations.”

“Caused primarily by the delayed contributions of Member States to the Regular Budget, his new cash shortfall is unlike those we have experienced previously”, he wrote. “Our cash flow has never been this low so early in the calendar year, and the broader trend is also concerning: we are running out of cash sooner and staying in the red longer. . . ”

". . . He also said the UN does not have much financial flexibility and relies on Member States to pay their dues on time and in full. Mr. Dujarric added that the UN Secretariat would now be looking into ways of reducing expenses, with a focus on non-staff costs."

"Global" Reminder:

June 26, 2018

Courtesy, https://onecommunityranch.org/how-to-help-humanity/

Adherence to law is always prudent for the well-being of all, especially in today's world beset by lawless acts which

threaten and harm "the lawful and innocent."

However, in the midst of such societal threats

and harms, the global community must

always be mindful of Laws that ensure the

“Human Rights”

of "law-abiding Citizens" at all times.

And whether or not “Humanity’s Family of Citizens”

are Christians, Muslims, Buddhists - or are of any

religion or diverse cultures - those inherent

“Human Rights of Humanity”

are inalienable with rightful

freedoms that

include lawful travel throughout

Humanity’s rightful Planetary homeland,

EARTH without imposed restrictions.
