Manhattan Project: Create a System of World Conferences to Overturn Geopolitics

Create a System of World Conferences to Overturn Geopolitics

During the Schiller Institute Memorial Day international conference, May 24-25, the necessity of diplomacy and dialogue in world affairs was echoed by diplomats from the U.S. and other nations. The participation of veteran diplomats, such as Amb. Jack Matlock, former ambassador to the Soviet Union from 1987-1991, Amb. Dmitry Chumakov, Deputy Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the United Nations, and Her Excellency Naledi Pandor, former South African Minister of Foreign Affairs, demonstrated the unity which could be achieved between nations of the United States, Russia, and the Global South for a new security and development architecture, as promoted by Schiller Institute Chairwoman Helga Zepp-LaRouche.

The purpose of the conference, and the role of the Schiller Institute, is to provoke a series of worldwide conferences which will discuss the principles of statecraft, economy, and culture to bring about a new paradigm in which the One Humanity triumphs over the Many. The great German cardinal and scientist, Nicholas of Cusa, in his effort to unite the Western and Eastern Churches during the Council of Florence in the 15th Century, had referred to this idea of the One being more powerful than the Many as the Coincidence of Opposites. 

At the 13th International Meeting of High Representatives for Security Issues in Moscow, which involved over 105 nations, Russian President Vladimir Putin said to the group: “I have said it before and will reiterate: we are convinced that the new security architecture must be equal and indivisible—that is, all states must receive firm guarantees of their own security, but not at the expense of the security and interests of other countries.” The role of Russia in the Second World War, where over 27 million Soviet men and women lost their lives to defeat the scourge of fascism in Europe, was also noted by Putin, “The experience of uniting states in the fight against evil, against Nazism and militarism, the understanding of the colossal price humanity paid for peace and freedom, for the right of peoples to choose their own path of development, laid the foundations of the post-war world order and led to the creation of the UN—a universal, legitimate organisation based on the principles of international law, which has helped overcome many geopolitical challenges.”

The intention of Franklin Roosevelt in his vision for the UN, an international organization based on principles of natural law, not the unprincipled so-called rules of the “rules-based order,” was to eliminate for good British, French, Portuguese, and Dutch colonialism, and bring about a new, just economic order based on the successful revival of the American System of Political Economy in the United States during Roosevelt’s first presidential term. As the various groupings of nations assemble for the June 17-19 meeting at the United Nations on the issue of Palestine, the intervention of the LaRouche Organization will be crucial to upshift that meeting from mere political matters, to a discussion on the principles of a new, security and development architecture which overturns geopolitics, and places on the table Lyndon LaRouche’s Oasis Plan for Southwest Asia.
