UN Chief told 'cut the crap' during PNG visit | ABC NEWS

United Nations chief António Guterres has refused to answer press questions after a national newspaper told him to “cut the crap” and call out corruption in Papua New Guinea.

Mr Guterres has been in Papua New Guinea since Tuesday for a historic visit to mark the country’s 50th year of independence.

It is the first time a serving UN Secretary-General has visited the Pacific nation, which struggles with high rates of crime, gender-based violence and access to basic services.

But after touring the country for a week, one of the country’s leading newspapers on Thursday published a scathing editorial, accusing him of “sugarcoating” words to local politicians.
