NATO intends to prohibit Russia’s and China’s Development

The glitzy NATO summit in Newport has not publicly announced major decisions but it is likely that they were taken in secret. To prevent Russia and China – but also India – from continuing their development, NATO can count on Terrorism from the Islamic Emirate which it pretends to condemn and fight.

The Newport (Wales) Summit is NATO’s largest since the 2002 Prague edition. At the time, it meant to include new central and eastern European states within the Alliance. This time it’s about planning a long-term strategy to contain the development of Russia and China so as to prevent their competing with the United States [1].

Anything related to NATO is a matter of debate. Indeed, it has continued, since its inception in 1949, to manipulate the facts to present itself as a defensive alliance against Soviet expansionism, whereas it is the Warsaw Pact, created six years later in 1955, which aimed to defend the socialist states in the face of Anglo-Saxon (and not vice versa) imperialism.

Moreover, contrary to its name, NATO is not an alliance of equals, but a subjugation of partner armies by the United States and the United Kingdom. Indeed, all member armies of this supposed “alliance” are under the command of a single US officer who is also commander of American forces in Europe-while the secret service of NATO, the “Gladio”, under the joint authority of Washington and London, ensures that the anti-imperialists never come to power in the other Member States [2]. To do this, NATO has not skimped on political killings, nor even coups (in France [3], Italy, Greece, Cyprus and Turkey).

This subservience contravenes the principles of the UN Charter, as Member States lose their independence of foreign policy and defense. It was called into question by the Soviet Union and then by President Charles De Gaulle, who, after facing forty NATO funded assassination attempts by the OAS, gave it the boot, announcing the immediate withdrawal of France from integrated command and the expulsion of 64,000 NATO soldiers and administrative staff from French territory.

This page of French independence ceased with the election of Jacques Chirac under whom, a few months after his arrival at the Elysee, France rejoined the Council of Ministers and the Military Committee of the Alliance. This finally ended with the return of the French army under US command as decided by Nicolas Sarkozy in 2009.

Finally, the subjugation of Member States continued with the creation of many civil institutions, the main and most effective of which is the European Union. Contrary to popular belief, the present Union has not much to do with the ideal of European unity, but to bind the NATO members out of Soviet influence and Russian aims, in accordance with the secret clauses of the Marshall Plan. The idea is therefore to divide Europe into two blocs. It is no coincidence that the offices of NATO and those of the EU executive in Brussels are primarily situated in Brussels and secondarily in Luxembourg. It is to allow control of the Union by the Anglo-Saxons that it has acquired a strange Commission whose main activity is to introduce economic or political “proposals”, all predefined by NATO. It is often ignored that the Alliance is not just a military pact, but it intervenes in the economy. First NATO is the #1 customer of the defense industry in Europe and determines standards for its bidding, that is to say, for all that concerns the daily lives of its soldiers. It is these standards that are proposed by the Commission and adopted by the European Parliament.

Actually three quarters of the budget of NATO is funded by the United States alone.

The future of the Anglo-American imperialist project

Since the coup of 2001 [4], the United States is planning a confrontation with China. With this in mind, President Barack Obama announced the repositioning of US forces in the Far East. However, this agenda has been disrupted by economic, political and military recovery in Russia, which has been able in 2008 to defend South Ossetia under attack by Georgia and, in 2014, Crimea threatened by the Kiev coup.

Furthermore, the project of “missile defense” has been dropped. Presented as a system of protection against Iranian missiles, this “shield” was actually an offensive system deployed around Russia to paralyze it. A simple glance at a global map shows that Iranian missiles, if they were to be launched at the United States, would not pass over central Europe, but via the shortest path: the north pole. After over a decade undermining relations between Washington and Moscow, the project has been abandoned because it is technically impossible to destroy the latest generation of Russian intercontinental missiles while in flight. So it’s the very principle of “nuclear deterrence” that is abandoned concerning Russia, although it remains relevant for other states……MORE HERE
