“Is the human species capable of governing itself,” Helga Zepp-LaRouche asked in her webcast of May 27, “or are we on the path of potential self-destruction?” This question remains to be answered.
The dangerous and very volatile state of the world strategic picture, from the illegal aggressive war against Iran to the deranged continuation of the Ukraine war on the part of Ukraine’s Western sponsors, to countless other hot spots, “require[s] that the adults in the room get together and uphold he idea of [an] international, lawfully ordered society,” Zepp-LaRouche proclaimed.
An important effort to do just that is taking place this week at the United Nations: On May 26, China convened a Security Council open debate on the topic, “Upholding the Purposes and Principles of the UN Charter and Strengthening the UN-Centered International System,” during which Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi observed that “the challenges before us are testing the international community’s commitment to safeguarding peace, its resolve to stand up for justice, and its courage to take bold reforms.”
By the time the meeting concludes on May 28, more than 100 governments will have spoken, most laying out the need for a multipolar world centered in international law in order to achieve peace—“a turn to the rule of reason,” in the words of the Panamanian representative.
Meanwhile, the government of Russia continues to warn the world, and particularly the West, that if the growing provocations from the European elites continue, including their ongoing military support for Ukrainian terrorist attacks against Russia, they are “digging their own graves,” as Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov told the Moscow International Security Forum on May 27.
Identifying the modus operandi of the Empire (Epstein) class, which, facing the collapse of their system, is moving to blow up any attempt to replace it, the Russian Embassy in Washington released a statement on Wednesday, May 27, in warning to the U.S. which calls out exactly this outmoded, troglodyte mentality:
“EU and NATO leaders, including the masters of intrigue, the British, unwilling to sacrifice their own recruits when the Ukrainians are ground down, are trying to draw the U.S. into their doomed schemes to inflict a ‘strategic defeat’ on Russia.”
Such a strategic defeat of the world’s largest nuclear power is not possible, as Ryabkov noted to the Moscow Forum, and many other sane voices have warned that to try would mean provoking a civilization-ending nuclear conflict.
Add to this the still unresolved danger of the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, the end of which might be negotiated in “a few more days,” in the words of U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio—or not, including the likelihood that the Netanyahu crowd and their Epstein-class sponsors decide to blow it up.
“We need to completely change the paradigm and move to a new security architecture. You have to go back to when the whole direction went in the wrong way at the time of the German unification, when there was a chance to have a peace order. Everything which has happened since went in the wrong direction. If you want to prevent a catastrophe, I think we have to go back and start from scratch and undo a lot of things which have happened in the last 30-plus years,” Helga Zepp-LaRouche asserted.
An indispensable component of such a new security architecture is the issue of development. This was put on the table at the UN meeting by Wang Yi, who declared that “Development, as the key to all problems, must remain at the center of the international agenda.”
It is also the basis of Zepp-LaRouche’s proposal for the Extended Oasis Plan for Southwest Asia, endorsed by many prominent figures as a new paradigm solution which could catapult the entire discussion, in the region and elsewhere, to a new domain, thus turning one of the most crisis-ridden areas of the world into the catalyst for a new, human world order.
Such a change will not happen automatically—especially given the culturally and morally depraved state of most of the leadership in the collective West. Citizens of goodwill in all nations must decide to act.
“If things continue, we are going to have a civilizational collapse the dimensions of which people have no inkling yet,” Zepp-LaRouche warned.
“[Whether], under these circumstances, the adults in the room can keep their heads above water and shape policies is not yet decided. I think it will depend to a very large extent on how many people take the fate of humanity in their heart and mind and act. We are proposing solutions. We have candidates who are representing these solutions. So, join us.”
