I'm interested in the Swiss based company that Gojo or Kojo Annan worked for. I'll have to go back and find the name.

Most sentient life forms on earth realize that the U.N. is a den of liars, spies, and thieves. This board is a great repository for their diplomatic misdeeds, blunders, back-stabs, etc..

And John F' Kerry (along with the usual gang) wants to hand our sovereignty over to the U.N.? Sheesh.

We do live in interesting times.

Thank you! Saved for research.

Glencore is or was a Marc Rich Co. His fingerprints show up in all the right places. Bosnia, Russia, Iraq, to name a few.

In 1992, and again in January 1999, Cotecna Inspection S.A. also secured a contract to inspect Iraq’s compliance with the “oil for food” program. Kofi Annan’s son by his previous marriage to a Nigerian woman, Kojo Annan, worked at Cotecna S.A. as an “senior staff member” until late 1997, and then became a partner in a Nigerian company whose clients reportedly included Cotecna. See LT, January 23, 1999.

In 1999, one of 25-year old Kojo’s other clients, a Nigerian company called Sutton Investments, won a six-million-British- pound subcontract from Cotecna to help monitor the UN's oil-for-food program in Iraq.

In 2000, the 26 year old Kojo was also serving as a Director of Air Harbour Technologies (AHT), an Isle-of-Man-registered company that in 1996 got the tender to build a controversial new multi-billion dollar airport in Harare from the widely-loathed Government of Zimbabwe’s Robert Mugabe.

AHT’s CEO is Hani Yamani, son of Saudi Arabia’s former Oil Minister Sheikh Yamani. See Financial Gazette, www.Zimtoday.com, May 4, 2000, “UN chief under fire for silence on Zim Annan's son linked to airport deal crisis; ”

Mr. Maugein, a billionaire with close ties to Jacques Chirac, is a longtime associate of the trader and former fugitive Marc Rich, who fled to Europe in 1983 to avoid answering charges of racketeering, illegal trading and dodging a tax-bill of $48 million. (Mr. Rich was pardoned by Bill Clinton in his final hours in the White House).

Mr. Maugein was also a close contact of Tariq Aziz, with whom he met regularly. He is the non-executive chairman of Soco International Plc., a publicly listed London-based petroleum exploration/production company, which goes into markets the majors tend to skip -- Mongolia, Vietnam, North Korea, Libya and Yemen

Mr. de Sousa says he and Mr. Maugein know Jean-Paul Cayre, the former Rich trader who is Ibex's managing director, but that they have nothing to do with his business in Iraq or elsewhere

But what has to be clear by now is that the U.N. itself was either corrupt, or so stunningly incompetent

Exactly

But what has to be clear by now is that the U.N. itself was either corrupt, or so stunningly incompetent as to require total overhaul.

I'll take Door #1. As for Kojo, we'll probably find out that he's the Uday Hussein of the U.N. Can anything be found about this guy? It would be interesting to see what he's into.
