During the discussion following Panel I of the Schiller Institute international conference on Dec. 7 (cf. SAS 50/24), the panelists were asked which parties they think should take part in negotiations over a settlement in Ukraine. The first to answer was Dmitri Trenin, Academic Supervisor of the Institute of World Military Economy and Strategy at the Higher School of Economics […]

After just three months in power, the French government of Prime Minister Michel Barnier collapsed in early December, to be replaced a few weeks later by a new one, which may be just as short-lived. New Prime Minister François Bayrou, a pliable centrist, has been around for decades in French politics, and prominent members of his government are just as […]

As Germany prepares for early elections on Feb. 23, one thing is clear: none of the main political parties has a program that could provide a solution to the economic and political problems facing the country. As long as the main problem — Green ideology — is not addressed, their campaign promises are but empty words. The migration problem cannot […]

As Hungarian Prime Minister Orban’s six-month presidency of the European Union was drawing to a close on Dec. 31, he indicated that he would continue to press for good relations with Russia and for a negotiated settlement in Ukraine. At the same time, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico stepped up his own diplomacy to the same end. To the consternation […]

That question, applied metaphorically to international relations, was posed by Michele Geraci, Economics Professor in Shanghai and former Undersecretary of State in the Italian Ministry of Ecconomic Development, at the Schiller Institute conference of December 7-8, who also brought up Lyndon LaRouche’s concept of a world landbridge. “In the realm of international relations, the West takes a zero-sum game approach, […]

Whereas the abnormal growth of U.S. government debt is a real issue, not everybody expressing concern over it is in good faith. Wall Street and City of London interests are now threatening to destabilize Donald Trump if he fails to slash government spending immediately. From a reality standpoint, a national debt is a source of concern if its growth rate […]

In the last few weeks they still have in power, the team running the Biden Administration is working overtime to stoke conflict and color revolutions throughout the globe – all in a futile effort to maintain control over an illusory unipolar world and its bankrupt financial system. Just last week, the White House announced a new, classified national security memorandum, […]

A “big mistake”, is how Donald Trump described the decision by the Collective Biden administration to allow Ukraine to target sites deep inside Russia with ATACM missiles provided by the U.S., whose targeting and other support functions remain in the hands of U.S. and NATO military personnel. He said so in an interview with Time Magazine released on Dec. 12, […]

The LaRouche Organization has just posted an interview conducted on Dec. 16 by TLO President Diane Sare with two experts on Southwest Asia, Col. Richard H. Black (ret.), former head of the U.S. Army’s Criminal Law Division at the Pentagon and former State Senator in Virginia; and UK investigative journalist Vanessa Beeley, a longtime resident of Syria, who had to […]

It is important to recognize that the main facilitator in transforming Syria’s Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) from an al-Qaeda-linked terror group into an ostensibly political movement has been British Foreign Office veteran Jonathan Powell, who met with leaders of the HTS, including Abu Muhammad al-Jawlani (al-Jolani), in 2017. Jonathan Powell is the younger brother of Charles Powell, the private secretary […]
