The following emergency statement, issued by the Schiller Institute, addresses the ongoing global financial crisis and is intended for the widest possible circulation. |
April 14, 2025 (EIRNS)—Today, the world is on a sea of uncertainty, hovering between multiple crises, while at the same time on the verge of a breakthrough. The growing potential of normalization of relations between the U.S. and Russia continues to move forward, although many obstacles still stand in the way for a meaningful resolution after years of anti-Russian hysteria. U.S. President Trump gave a useful reminder that he had opposed the Biden administration’s mindless march to nuclear war, in an April 14 post on his Truth Social account, writing: “President Zelenskyy and Crooked Joe Biden did an absolutely horrible job in allowing this travesty to begin. There were so many ways of preventing it from ever starting.” |
April 13, 2025 (EIRNS)—The May 25 Sunday morning session of the Schiller Institute May 24-25 conference, “A Beautiful Vision for Humanity in Times of Great Turbulence!” will focus on “Lyndon LaRouche, American Patriot and World Citizen.” The continued successful suppression of the ideas of LaRouche, the economist and statesman—who successfully forecast, on nine occasions, the progress of the physical breakdown crisis of the trans-Atlantic post-Bretton Woods System—must end. |
Eighty years after the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945, we find ourselves asking the question, “When does ‘Never Again’ begin?” |
April 4, 2025 (EIRNS)—When Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. appeared on ABC News’ “Issues and Answers” program on June 18, 1967—one week after the conclusion of the June 1967 Arab-Israeli War—he was asked on his views, as a Nobel Peace Prize winner, on the difficult situation in the region. |
As you are reading this, British Intelligence “influencers” embedded in the Trump Administration are attempting to force the resignation of one or more of the senior officials in his Presidency. |
March 30, 2025 (EIRNS)—The recent report of the deployment of seven U.S. stealth B-2 bombers to the U.K.-U.S. military base of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean, along with parallel movements of American aircraft carriers into the Middle East theater and stepped-up verbal threats against Iran from President Donald Trump, have sharply raised the temperature around a possible U.S.-Iranian confrontation. |
March 26, 2025 (EIRNS)—There is a growing drumbeat around Washington urging the Trump administration to use the recent U.S. air strikes against the Houthis in Yemen as a prelude and practice run for delivering a knock-out punch to Iran next. National Security Adviser Mike Waltz threatened on March 23 that Iran had to change its foreign policy and “walk away completely” from its nuclear program, or “there will be consequences.” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reportedly been bending the Trump administration’s ear that Iran can be “decapitated” without a full-scale war, the way the IDF did with Hezbollah and the way the Assad government in Syria was toppled. |
March 18, 2025 (EIRNS)—The March 18 call between Presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump has opened the door to a world that has not been able to exist for at least 35 years, and more likely not since the end of World War II. |
March 14, 2025 (EIRNS)—All eyes are now on the possibility of ending the war in Ukraine. For those who wish to avoid a nuclear world war, it is a hopeful prospect; for those in London and elsewhere who don’t, there is a great gnashing of teeth. U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff returned to Washington on Friday, March 14, after a late-night Thursday meeting in Moscow with Russian President Putin, at which the two discussed the ceasefire proposal put forward by the U.S. and Ukraine. |
March 13, 2025 (EIRNS)—All eyes were trained on Moscow on Thursday morning, to see how Russian President Vladimir Putin would respond to the U.S.-Ukrainian proposal for a 30-day ceasefire in the Ukraine war. The British and their globalist partners in Washington were hoping that Putin would reject the proposal out of hand, and thereby put an end to the Trump-Putin strategic dialogue which has so upset London. |
March 12, 2025 (EIRNS)—The March 11 meeting in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia between Ukrainian and American representatives, where a 30-day ceasefire was agreed to, has shifted the world’s attention yet again. But who is actually doing the shifting? Reports now abound that, after Tuesday’s agreement, “the ball is in Russia’s court.” Former British Prime Minister and notorious anti-peace fanatic Boris Johnson said March 12: “The Ukrainians have proved that they can make peace. Now it is up to the Kremlin to sign up to the Trump plan—or face the consequences. If Putin refuses we will know that he is not serious about peace and never was.” |
March 9, 2025 (EIRNS)—It’s almost daily that historic events are unfolding, underlining the dramatic nature of the historic process currently underway in the world. Larger than the new Trump administration in the U.S., the scale of this process encompasses a historic change that spans at least the past 500 years of colonialism and neocolonialism, even if many shifts have been set into motion following Trump’s inauguration. Most importantly, all underscore the need for an entirely new security and development architecture to replace the disintegrating “rules-based order.” |
March 5, 2025 (EIRNS)—In discussion with associates on March 3, Helga Zepp-LaRouche said: “The world is undergoing an earthquake a day, [but] the shattering of the old order—and the birth pains of the new order—is still not entirely settled how this will play out.” At the same time, “the potential to go in the direction of … a new security and development architecture is clearly there,” she added. |
March 1, 2025 (EIRNS)—As has been proven by economist and statesman Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr., successful—and not merely momentary—survival of the human species is characterized by a series of seemingly sudden, revolutionary changes in the mode of behavior of society which abandon outmoded and sometimes grossly flawed ideas in favor of a more truthful set of principles and way of operating. Such a monumental shift is underway today, though the successful establishment of a new paradigm is by no means secured. |
Feb. 28, 2025 (EIRNS)—President Donald Trump ordered Ukraine’s Vlodymyr Zelenskyy to leave the White House on Friday without signing a much-publicized minerals deal between the two countries, after they had a heated exchange today before media cameras in which Zelenskyy aggressively challenged Trump’s efforts to negotiate peace with Russian President Vladimir Putin. “You’re gambling with the lives of millions of people, you’re gambling with World War III,” Trump responded forcefully. |
Feb. 24—Why is it in our national security interest, that President Donald Trump act now to curtail the “special relationship” that presently exists between British Imperial and Commonwealth intelligence services, and the United States military and military-intelligence agencies? |
Feb. 24, 2025 (EIRNS)—Why is it in Americans’ national security interest, that President Donald Trump act to curtail the “special relationship” that presently exists between the British Imperial and Commonwealth intelligence services, and the United States military and military-intelligence? |
Feb. 21, 2025 (EIRNS)—The subtitle of the City of London’s Feb. 20 The Economist article “How Europe Must Respond as Trump and Putin Smash the Post-War Order” was even more revealing than the headline: “The region has had its bleakest week since the fall of the Iron Curtain. The implications have yet to set in.” |
Feb. 18, 2025 (EIRNS)—That the postwar unipolar world order has fallen apart might be the understatement of the century. Today, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, high-level delegations from the United States and Russia met for four-and-a-half hours as a significant step toward re-establishing normal bilateral relations between the world’s biggest nuclear superpowers, and resolving the Ukraine conflict in a way which, in the words of meeting participant and U.S. National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, is “a permanent end to the war, and not a temporary end, as we’ve seen in the past.” |
Feb. 17, 2025 (EIRNS)—The future may not be determined, but it is definitive that we are at the end of the post-Cold War, so-called “rules-based order.” In the forefront of many manifestations, including the tears of the outgoing chairman of the Munich Security Council yesterday, is the meeting Tuesday, Feb. 18, in Riyadh of the U.S. Secretary of State and Russian Foreign Minister to re-establish regular relations between these powers and to confer on ending the warfare in Ukraine. |
Feb. 13, 2025 (EIRNS)—At the Feb. 12 Ukraine Contact Group meeting in Brussels, U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth announced a new U.S. policy for Ukraine. He declared that there will be no NATO membership for Ukraine; any peacekeeping troops deployed there will not be under the umbrella of NATO or its Article 5; and the United States will not send troops to Ukraine. Further, returning Ukrainian territory it has lost since 2014 is “unrealistic,” Hegseth said. Panic immediately set in throughout NATO’s most hard-core faction, in Europe and in the U.S., among those who had hoped President Trump would maintain at least some degree of confrontation with Russia. |
Feb. 12, 2025 (EIRNS)—Wednesday, Feb. 12 saw three major developments in the tumultuous strategic situation. |
Feb. 6, 2025 (EIRNS)—Following the flurry of statements over the past two days, a picture of the ominous implications of President Trump’s policy vis-à-vis Gaza is beginning to emerge. “The Gaza Strip would be turned over to the United States by Israel at the conclusion of fighting,” Trump said today in a post on Truth Social, and the Palestinians “would have already been resettled in far safer and more beautiful communities.” Gaza “would become one of the greatest and most spectacular developments of its kind on Earth,” he claimed. Who will live in this new, magnificent “Riviera,” one might ask? According to Trump, it will be “the people of the world,” i.e., not the Palestinians. |
Jan. 27, 2025 (EIRNS)—If looked at properly, Monday’s surprise stock market plunge in the U.S. shines a light on the actual situation facing the Western world today. The financial shock was in response to the news late last week that the new Chinese AI model, DeepSeek, had outperformed the leading American models, and that, at a fraction of the cost and energy consumption. |
