Hopes and reality: On February 27 President Putin, in an address to FSB security officials, stated that the initial communication with the US administration “inspires certain hopes.” The world can understand what these hopes are, faint as they presently appear, the hope that the new American administration under Donald Trump has recognised its defeat in its war against Russia and, therefore, is ready to engage in negotiations to extricate itself from the disaster it has created in Ukraine.

It has now been ten years since I first turned my attention to the necessity of prudent financial investments in order to both preserve and hopefully enlarge the modest amount of wealth I had accumulated up to that time. I began by attempting to identify the wisest and most discerning “experts” in the field. This was no easy trick.
It is still too early to assess the results of the BRICS Summit in Kazan. However, it already seems clear that this event will have significant impacts on global geopolitics – possibly changing global power structures in some way.

On September 7, the British and American chiefs of their secret intelligence services, Richard Moore and William Burns, released an op-ed piece in the Financial Times, and on that day took part in a live talk hosted by the same journal. They had one common objective, to lie to their peoples and the world about the real causes of the violence and insecurity in the world, to provide them with the pretext for their attempt to rule the world. In other words, they openly displayed the conspiracy of their governments to commit aggression against anyone in the world who resists them, the supreme war crime.

According to its mission, the World Health Organisation (WHO) should be committed to the human right to health. With the withdrawal of states from funding the organisation, it has come under the influence of private donors. These influence the WHO’s projects, including vaccination campaigns and research into new pathogens. The link between the pharmaceutical industry, food supply and digital identity is also being discussed. And now the WHO is to be given extended powers as part of an international pandemic treaty. This is meeting with resistance and constitutional complaints. KLAUS HARTMANN* scrutinises the role of the WHO under imperialist rule.
