US strategy and what the gas pipeline war is costing us

US strategy and what the gas pipeline war is costing us

Rome (Italy) | 30 December 2019
After having forbidden the Chinese company Huawei to compete in the calls for tender for the 5G network, the United States are now forbidding the Europeans to increase their supplies of Russian gas. While the first decision was aimed at maintaining the coherence of NATO, the second is not a result of Russophobia, but of the 1992 « Wolfowitz doctrine » - preventing the EU from becoming a competitor of the « American Empire ». In both cases, the point is to infantilise the EU and keep it in a situation of dependence.

The European Union, in the moment and in the long run

The European Union, in the moment and in the long run

Beirut (Lebanon) | 8 May 2019
The citizens of the European Union, who are supposed to elect their parliament on 25 and 26 May, are getting ready to make the wrong choice. By concentrating on their immediate problems, they are hesitating between several different priorities. But on the contrary, if they were to analyse their history over a long period, they would discover the origins of their social, economic and political problems, and without any doubt, would decide differently.

Germany wants nuclear bombers

Germany wants nuclear bombers

18 April 2019
Germany’s armed forces are currently studying the possibility of acquiring nuclear bombers capable of using the new American B61-12atomic bombs.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon itself plans to deploy these new atomic bombs in the German region of Eifel, in violation of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
The German air force already has multi-tasking Tornado warplanes, which are already capable of deploying American atomic bombs. But those aircraft are going to be replaced, possibly, by (...)

The new iron curtain

by Manlio Dinucci

The new iron curtain

Rome (Italy) | 20 September 2018
Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania have begun the construction of a new iron curtain which separates Northern Europe in two. The point is to remind people of the way in which the Soviet Union built an identical wall to prevent Central European refugees from fleeing to the West. And yet for the moment there is no significant migratory movement towards Russia.

Expandable and always more expensive, NATO is spreading across Europe

Expandable and always more expensive, NATO is spreading across Europe

Rome (Italy) | 15 July 2018
Working like machines programmed from their creation, the administrations of NATO and the EU are pursuing their project free from all political control. The military and civil bureaucracies born of the US occupation of Western Europe are bent on defending the interests of the transnational élite without paying any attention to the wish of the People.

This is how the USA “reassures Europe”

by Manlio Dinucci

This is how the USA “reassures Europe”

Rome (Italy) | 15 August 2017
Yes it’s a fact Jack: pure altruism motivates the United States to fund the deployment of its forces in Western Europe and Central Europe in order to protect Europe from a Russian invasion.
However this imminent danger is invalidated by History: Russian troops have never invaded Europe whereas the reverse operation has unfortunately been undertaken: first, by Emperor Napolean the First and then by the Fuhrer Adolf Hitler.
In actual fact, the exclusive aim of this exercise is to protect US soil. How so? By ejecting the potential theatre for confrontation from US soil and replanting it in Europe, potentially bearing fruit that might poison the people of Europe that the US is claiming to support.

The US flag covers Three Seas in Europe

Rome (Italy) | 10 July 2017
While the European Union seems to be swamped with internal problems, the United States has launched a shake-up of Central Europe under the title, “The Three Seas Initiative”. This is a huge project, the brainchild of the Obama Administration and put in motion by the Trump Administration. The end-game? Creating an Anti-Russian bloc that will protect Western Europe.

So here it is: the Pentagon's plan for Europe

Rome (Italy) | 9 May 2017
In preparation for President Trump’s visit to Europe (24 May: Rome; 25 May: the Nato Summit, Brussels; 26- 27 May: the G7 Summit at Taormina), the Pentagon presented its strategic plan for the “European theatre”. Its spokesperson? General Curtis Scaparrotti who, as the head of the US’s European Command, automatically becomes the head of Nato, holding the office of Supreme Allied Commander for Europe. On 2 May, in the US Senate, the General recalls that “the European theatre remains critical to (...)

Europe's doves in arms

Rome (Italy) | 21 February 2017
No stone must be left unturned. So characterizes the efforts of the European leaders to increase Nato’s presence in Eastern Europe and extend its capabilities to intervene in the South. This will enable them to kill two birds with one stone: they will be well resourced to deal with the possibility of Washington and Moscow developing closer ties and also can take what they can before increasing their contribution to the Alliance.

US Tankers lined up in Poland

Rome (Italy) | 17 January 2017
While the US president elect criticizes the very existence of Nato, the Atlantic Alliance pursues its imperial deployment in Europe. This was organized after the Donbass revolt against the Nazis (set up at Kiev by Nato) who executed the coup. This deployment seeks to spiral the Russian threat so that it can be used as a cover for the military occupation of Eastern Europe. This occupation is supported by the political elites of East Europe whose entire power base is due to the United States alone.

The Brexit reshuffles world geopolitics

Damascus (Syria) | 28 June 2016
While the world Press is searching for ways to re-start the reconstruction of Europe, still without Russia and now without the United Kingdom, Thierry Meyssan considers that nothing can now prevent the collapse of the system. However, he points out, what is at stake is not the European Union itself, but the institutions which enable the domination of the world by the United States, and the integrity of the United States themselves.

The White House and NATO prepare the sabotage of Brexit

25 June 2016
Leaving the European Union, the UK ends its "special relationship" with the United States. But London is also a member of the agreement of the "Five Eyes" from the Atlantic Charter and co-founder of NATO (the British share all information concerning the Stay Behind network). Releasing the UK therefore means the collapse of the entire Anglo-Saxon system of world domination.
The National Security Council of the United States has developed a plan to secure the UK to Atlantic structures. It (...)

Jens Stoltenberg dealing with Brexit

Brussels (Belgium) | 24 June 2016
The British people have decided to leave the European Union. As it defines the next chapter in its relationship with the EU, I know that the United Kingdom’s position in NATO will remain unchanged. The UK will remain a strong and committed NATO Ally, and will continue to play its leading role in our Alliance.
Today, as we face more instability and uncertainty, NATO is more important than ever as a platform for cooperation among European Allies, and between Europe and North America. A (...)

TTIP, “Economic Nato”

Rome (Italy) | 21 June 2016
Citizens, local authorities, parliaments, governments, entire states depleted of economic choices, placed in the hands of organizations controlled by multinationals and financial groups, violating labour rights, environmental protection and food security, demolishing public services and communal goods. It is for these reasons, articulated by the campaign “Stop TTIP” that sponsored the demonstration held on 7 May at Rome, that the “Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership” (TTIP) must be (...)

The US puts its money on escalation against Russia

by Valentin Vasilescu

The US puts its money on escalation against Russia

Bucharest (Romania) | 18 June 2016
Pursuing its policy of occupation in Western and Central Europe, Washington multiplies alerts and warnings of “the Russian threat”. An intense PR campaign denounces the propaganda of the former Soviet Union while military experts decry the inequality of arms and the need to introduce a US “shield”. The most recent chapter of this organized hysteria: the publication of a Rand Corporation report on a possible – although improbable – Russian invasion of the Baltic countries.

Political repression and militarization of Poland

by Janusz Niedzwiecki

Political repression and militarization of Poland

Varsaw (Poland) | 10 June 2016
Poland is living today, and with some delay, a political development comparable to that of Turkey. These two States, members of the Atlantic Alliance, militarized and conduct extensive political repression. Given the involvement of Turkey in the war against Syria and Poland in that against Ukraine, we can logically deduce that these abuses are not national events, but the result of the Nato policy.

The Coiling Anaconda

by Manlio Dinucci

The Coiling Anaconda

Rome (Italy) | 7 June 2016
Nato pursues its propaganda campaign aimed at making us believe that Russia is on the warpath and that we need to be ready. Thus, flouting the principles of the Alliance (premised on relying only on regular forces), the Alliance is setting up in Poland, just it did so in Ukraine - a paramilitary force of 35 000 men that forms part of the Anakonda 16 manoeuvres. The thinking is that once members of this paramilitary force have participated in these exercises, they will, in turn, perpetuate the myth of a Russian threat.

NATO arrests Mateusz Piskorski, the Polish Leader of the Opposition

23 May 2016
On 18 May, the houses of our collaborator, Mateusz Piskorski and his team, (Konrad Rękas, Tomasz Jankowski and Nabil Malazii), were searched by the Polish police. Mateusz Piskorski was arrested on the suspicion of “spying”, and put in prison.
Central Europe is profoundly divided between those supporting closer ties with Western Europe (the European Union) and those in favour of closer ties with Eastern Europe (the Russian Federation).
Mateusz Piskorski, a former MP and director of a (...)

The war against historical memory is NATO's long-term campaign

Varsaw (Poland) | 19 May 2016
NATO is an immemorial alliance that liberated Europe from Nazism and protects us from the Russian bear, then that is what we should believe. The historical truth is very different, but NATO strives to revise it. A long-term task with dark consequences.

U.S. missiles in Romania and Poland: Europe on the nuclear frontline

Rome (Italy) | 19 May 2016
At a ribbon cutting ceremony at the air base of Deveselu in Romania, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg inaugurated the "Aegis Ashore" land-based installation of the U.S. Aegis missile system.
Stoltenberg thanked the United States, because this installation greatly increases its ability to "defend European allies against ballistic missiles outside the Euro-Atlantic area." He announced the start of work to establish another “Aegis Ashore” in Poland, similar to the one in operation in (...)

Greece: The Ghost of “Prometheus”

Rome (Italy) | 17 April 2016
First published July 7, 2015
The «head to head» in the Greek referendum, the propaganda of mass media, disclosed a resounding head bashing against the wall for domestic and international supporters of the «Yes» campaign. The Greek people have said «No» not only to the «austerity» measures imposed by the EU, the ECB and the IMF, but, essentially to a certain system: the capitalist system that suffocates genuine democracy.
The implications of the referendum transcend the economic sphere, (...)

The memory of the military coup d’etat organized by NATO in 1967 still haunts Greek political life.
Tomorrow, on 8 April, Tsipras will meet Putin in Moscow. At the same time, the EU, the ECB and the IMF will hold another summit on Greece, which the following day has to pay a 45 million euro tranche of the loan granted by the International Monetary Fund.
