Schiller Institute Chairwoman Helga Zepp-LaRouche made a powerful appeal to all citizens to join her to mobilize support for a conference to establish a new strategic architecture, before the crazed war hawks in the Trans-Atlantic blunder into a nuclear war. Describing the present situation as "terrible...out of control", she said the total media control has allowed governments to place economies on a war footing, which threatens to unleash mass deaths due to famine. The present sanctions regime against Afghanistan, she stated, threatens five million children now. Instead of addressing this, there is a drive by the U.S. and the N ATO powers to demonize Putin and crush Russia. I call upon you to join us, she said, to convene a conference "in the spirit of the (1648) Peace of Westphalia," to create a security architecture which addresses the needs of all nations and peoples. At the center of her proposal is to accept the offer of Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi, who called for an integration of the U.S. and Europe with the Belt-and-Road Initiative.
