Following the Dec. 28 arrest of Luis Fernando Camacho, the governor of Bolivia’s Santa Cruz department, the neo-Nazi apparatus which the governor and his allies control in the region went on a violent rampage, attacking government buildings and agencies, injuring and torturing government employees, burning vehicles, and issuing hit lists of “traitors to Santa Cruz”. Camacho was arrested on charges of […]

Just one year ago, in our first issue for 2022, we were relieved to report that the five permanent members of the UN Security Council had signed, for the first time, a declaration stating that “nuclear war cannot be won, and must never be fought”. But since then, with the breath-taking escalation of the proxy war between Russia and NATO […]

Helga Zepp-LaRouche, Chair of the international Schiller Institute, issued the following statement in a video address on Dec. 31: The New Year 2023 must become the year where humanity reaches the age of adulthood. That means, we must leave behind us childish, geopolitical squabbling, where nations fight each other as if we were spoiled brats, aiming war toys against each […]

In a Dec. 22 interview to the Naples daily Il Mattino, Vatican Secretary of State Pietro Parolin relaunched the idea of a new European security infrastructure, along the lines of the historic 1975 Helsinki conference.

In issuing the first round of sanctions against Russia last February, the European Commission and EU governments assured us that it would force Russia to its knees and make war-financing impossible.

As we pointed out from the beginning, the EU’s “Global Gateway Initiative” (GGI), designed to compete with China’s Belt and Road policy, was an empty shell doomed to fail (cf. SAS 38/21, 7, 48/22). It has since been exposed as a failure even within the Commission. On Nov. 30, 2022, the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the European Parliament held […]

The ongoing release of the Twitter Files, as chronicled by investigative reporter Matt Taibbi, has provided an in-depth picture of the role played by U.S. intelligence agencies in a profoundly disturbing censorship regime. The Hunter Biden laptop was not the only story covered up, nor was the illicit activity limited to the FBI. The most recent tranches make a mockery […]

As the year 2022 drew to a close, some Chinese media turned to the Schiller Institute’s Helga Zepp-LaRouche for her assessment of what China has accomplished so far and what needs to be done in the coming year. On New Year’s Eve, CGTN YouTube posted an 8.5 minute video by Helga Zepp-LaRouche, titled, “China and the EU — What To […]

On Jan. 1, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva was inaugurated for the third time as President of Brazil, having previously served for two terms from 2003-2010. Since his disgraced predecessor, Jair Bolsonaro, had fled the country on Dec. 30 for Florida, Lula and his Vice President Geraldo Alckmin were sworn in by the presidents of the Chamber of Deputies and the […]

Ukraine’s Center for Countering Disinformation (CCD) posted once again on Dec. 20 a list of Western figures it charges with promoting “Russian propaganda”. Number one on the list is Helga Zepp-LaRouche, founder and head of the international Schiller Institute.
