The meeting of the Bilderberg Club - the "world government" - is being analyzed by political scientist Konstantin Cheremnykh.

Konstantin Anatolyevich, a regular meeting of the Bilderberg Club took place in Turin from June 7 to 10. It is generally accepted that this club is an unspoken world government. Is the devil as scary as he is painted?

- The Bilderberg Club has a rich history, but there have been some changes lately. The sessions have become more thematic. The main topics for the press began to be published not so long ago, and now they began to more purposefully invite specialists on specific issues, and specialists not only from the main club environment, consisting of bankers, businessmen, media moguls, journalists …

At the same time, journalists cannot record what is happening at the meetings?

- Yes, but there were efforts of some correspondents, which only led to increased control over the privacy of the discussion. Nevertheless, something can be said about the set of topics and about the participants. In the discussions of the year before last, when the club met in Germany, there was the topic of refugees, the contemptuous word "precariat", that is, "restless" - people from whom it is not known what to expect, sounded. And so a woman was invited to that meeting, who had nothing to do with politics or business: she was exclusively involved in genetic engineering. Moreover, a year before her invitation to a club meeting, her method was first used on a human embryo. It is strange that the conspiracy theorists did not pay attention to the coincidence of the topic and the invitation of such a person. By the way, the conspiracy theorists covering the Bilderberg meetings are a caste that is fixated on issues of financial influence. The rest does not interest them, and in vain.

What topic was discussed at the last meeting?

- This year, they brought to the fore a topic that seemed to be ideological, but geographically very limited: "Populism in Europe."

So they see European right-wing populists as a threat?

- Populism can be understood in different ways. Why not consider Macron a populist when he comes to Australia and claims that France should be the center of the Indo-Pacific axis? It would seem, where is France, and where is the Indo-Pacific axis? Populism? Populism. But in the most reputable media, whose editors attend meetings of clubs like Bilderberg, the interpretation of populism has a right aspect - this is also noticeable in the coverage of events in Eastern Europe and, as it turned out, in Italy, where the current meeting was held.

The meeting itself was being prepared from the beginning of the year, and the topics were being prepared even before elections were held in Italy and Giuseppe Conte became prime minister. But this is not interesting in this case. The composition of the participants is usually determined taking into account the host country, that is, this time, Italy should have had a certain increased quota. But from Italy all the same people were present as usual. The only one present was Cardinal Pietro Parolin of the Vatican.

“The Pope’s right hand, as they say

- Yes, but it is impossible to say that this is a particularly characteristic addition to the composition, because the concept of "populism" is hardly applicable to the Vatican. Moreover, in these elections in Italy, the victory was won by a party created as a deliberately populist one.

"Five Star Movement"?

- Yes. At first, this movement was led by a certain clown, but after the death of the chief political strategist, this clown immediately faded into the background, and the party changed, mainly due to the victory of its representatives in elections in large cities.

Since the elections, the process of forming a government coalition has stalled due to disputes over whether Berlusconi and his party will participate in the coalition. The Five Star Movement was against it. And as a result of protracted disputes, a technical government was almost formed. And this option, it seems to me, would suit the Bilderberg Club in its current composition. But that was not the case at all. Moreover, after the formation of the government, the new Prime Minister Conte was especially favorably noted by Trump, which has yet to be "digested" by the establishment.

But if Italy was not represented widely enough, who took its place?

- Not in terms of quantity, but in terms of status, in terms of the proportion of participants, the place of the host country was taken by France. And I was impressed with the list. One might assume that this is due to the fact that the head of the steering group of the Bilderberg Club since 2010 is Henri de Castries, a Frenchman, but so far such a disparity has not been observed. Among the figures known in our press were Audrey Azoulay, the head of UNESCO, and the French Minister of Commerce, whose presence is quite natural, because there is a trade war going on around the world. In addition, the list included Bernard Bajollet, a diplomat, head of French foreign intelligence, whose activities concerned Iran and Saudi Arabia, which were also the topics of discussion of the club. Bajollet appeared in Paris while trying to persuade Egyptian diplomats to negotiate unofficially with people in the Arab special services regarding South Yemen, which led to an armed conflict and another attempt to secede from South Yemen.

Then this problem was nevertheless solved with the participation of Prince Mohammed ibn Salman Al Saud. It is important to note that this happened a few months after the resonant rotation of princes in Saudi Arabia, carried out by Crown Prince Salman. The result was the loss of high status by lobbyists of French companies. Everything that Muhammad bin Salman was doing then was viewed by the French authorities as a deliberate weakening of French influence in Saudi Arabia. After that, reciprocal intrigues began.

Back this year, Patricia Barbizet, the head of the Artemis firm, the head of the most influential French club, which meets twice a month in Paris, appeared at the meeting of the Bilderberg Club.

What is this club?

- It is called "Le Siecle" ("Century"), and this is the place where the most important political issues are resolved, and due to the high frequency of meetings, it is possible to coordinate actions for, say, the passage of this or that candidate. This was the case during the presidential elections in France, when François Fillon from the Republicans party was one of the favorites of the electoral race, but a discrediting campaign began against him in the media owned by Macron's sponsor, Patrick Dray. Drahi is a native of Morocco, like many other people in Macron's team, which is the main generator of the imperial ambitions of France, which Macron expresses during his visits to India or Australia. Essentially, Macron followed Trump geographically: Trump had meetings with Indian Prime Minister Modi, then Australian Prime Minister Turnbull came to him, and after that Macron visited Delhi, Canberra and the islands of New Caledonia, the bridgehead of French influence in the Pacific, in the same manner. During the visit, Macron made it clear that being French territory is an honor; and explained that France is coming to a place vacated by Britain.

So this is another sign of competition between Paris and London?

- Moreover, this competition is visible to the naked eye in the current composition of the Bilderberg Club. Never before have I seen so few of the club members, not just Englishmen, but lords, bankers and representatives of the Rothschild, Rockefeller and Wallenberg families. Britain was represented by virtually discredited people. One of them is George Osborne, the second most influential in the country under David Cameron and now the publisher of the Evening Standard newspaper. He was considered the architect of the relationship between Britain and China. The collapse of his endeavors became apparent after Macron's visit to China and the warm welcome given to the French president, and the conclusion of a huge contract between the Chinese and Airbus. After that, the French neo-imperial project rose a step higher, which, of course, no one calls it aloud.

Was the topic of Russia raised at the meeting of the Bilderberg Club?

- Yes, the topic "Russia in world politics" was discussed. It is clear that we are talking about Russia in the context of influencing events in other countries, which echoes the topic "Populism in Eastern Europe" and with the investigation by Special Prosecutor Mueller about Trump's ties with Russia.

Who of the experts in this field was present at the meeting?

“This is Nadia Shadlow, deputy former Trump national security adviser Herbert McMaster. But I would pay much more attention to Jared Cohen. This is a person who has not appeared in public for a long time, he worked in a division of Google. The specifics of his work are related not only to the topics of the meeting, but also to the methods. It is not populism itself that is being discussed, but what should be done with it. And in this matter, the figure of Cohen comes to the fore - a man who worked on all the most important projects of surrogate revolutions until he found himself in some disgrace. Cohen has been to Russia, but this happened after his visit to Iran under a different name and with illegal border crossing. He began practicing his techniques in 2007 during the Bush administration.

At that time, were IT revolutions with the use of social media already being developed with might and main?

- Yes, and the first experience of using such a thing was in Moldova, and the second - in Iran in 2009. Cohen was very active in delivering information strikes against the administration of re-elected Iranian President Ahmadinejad. The methods used then were very characteristic of Cohen and the group to which he belongs. For example, promoting the murder of a young woman and accusing the government of it. Then Cohen publicly approached Jack Dorsey, the director of Twitter, for Dorsey to support the promotion.

Cohen was also one of the founders of the "Alliance of Youth Movements" - groups created over the Internet, work with which Hillary Clinton was later used, although Cohen himself had by that time been pushed aside. He was pushed aside because of the clan struggle within the Democratic Party - when Clinton, a rival of former Secretary of State John Kerry, came after him to the State Department and began to get rid of unnecessary people, Cohen left.

This coincided with the criminal case against Hassan Nemazi, one of the main sponsors of Kerry's 2004 election campaign. The institute that was part of this campaign was called the National Security Network and included such influential people as diplomat Richard Holbrooke and General Wesley Clark, who worked together in Yugoslavia and Afghanistan. During Holbrooke's tenure in Afghanistan, Jared Cohen served as his advisor. As for Hassan Nemazi, who received a 12-year sentence, he is himself an ethnic Iranian and the son of a drug dealer who has achieved great success in the United States and sponsored the election campaigns of Democrats: Kerry, Biden and Obama. Note that Kerry and Biden are always close and act in the same direction. Their former employees created new structures based on the aforementioned National Security Network, but with a different, broader, set of sponsors and the emergence of new faces. Among them - the former head of the department of commerce under Obama, Penny Pritzker, who has a completely different clan origin.

Chicago?

- Exactly. These are the people who nominated Obama. But Obama himself does not advertise his involvement in these things.

It looks like the Biden and Kerry team will be joining forces through the Pritzker family in anticipation of what became another Bilderberg topic - the midterm elections to the US Congress this November. Penny Pritzker belongs to the family that owns the Hyatt hotel chain and the Royal Caribbean luxury cruise line, which the Pritzker owns with the powerful Israeli Ofer family. In early 2011, there was a big scandal in the United States and Israel, when a number of companies making ship calls to Iran "bypassing" the sanctions imposed on this country were added to the black list. These were the companies of the Ofer family.

When the scandal erupted, several very strange situations arose: for example, during a meeting of the Knesset Finance Committee, when the speaker began to talk about this case, a man suddenly approached him, put his hand on his shoulder, and the speaker fell silent and left, after which the whole discussion was closed. Literally a couple of days later, Sami Ofer suddenly died, taking all the secrets with him. If we talk about the political aspect of the activities of the Ofer family, then they have British connections and have always financed the political forces of the left spectrum - forces that are now in opposition to Israeli President Netanyahu and regularly try to impeach him.

It turns out that corruption investigations against Netanyahu are their work?

- For this there are law enforcement agencies in Israel, but I do not know about their connections with the Ofer family.

It should also be noted that in early April, between the "chemical attack" in Syria and the strike in response to it, one might think that Trump would not survive politically: people from the FBI came to his lawyer - it seemed that the special services were against him and before impeachment Not long left. On the day the FBI raided Trump's lawyer, the level-headed and moderate House Speaker Paul Ryan announced that he would not be re-elected to Congress this fall. Ryan was a vice presidential nominee in 2012 when Mitt Romney was running for the country's top post; and at the 2016 Republican convention, when it was not yet clear who would be the Republican nominee, Ryan was sort of a backup candidate in case Trump did not get the required number of votes from the Republican delegates. Obviously, Ryan has presidential ambitions. And suddenly, at such a moment, a person with such ambitions leaves. There is also a clan overtones here.

In this regard, the presence of Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper at the meeting of the Bilderberg Club seemed to me very curious. It seems that he and Ryan are from different states: Ryan represents Wisconsin.

“Moreover, they are from two different parties

- Yes, but there are always such clan characteristics that cross the party lines. In Colorado, there is the Espen ski resort, on the basis of which the Espen Institute was established, which not only works in France, but is, in fact, a training base for future French presidents. And Macron, together with his team, underwent training there.

If we talk about the key clan-forming figures, then we can recall Nemazi in connection with Kerry; when it comes to more right-wing structures, then billionaire Sheldon Adelson comes to mind. In Colorado's case, the clan-forming figure is Larry Meisel, Adelson's gambling rival. Meisel has old connections in Israel, chief among which is Nir Barkat, the mayor of Jerusalem. He drove Hickenlooper and Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, also a former presidential candidate, to Barkat. The peculiarity of this Colorado-Wisconsin team is its willingness to bet on either of two parties: Democrats or Republicans. Another solid figure within the clan is lawyer Norman Brownstein, owner of the second largest law firm in New York and head of the legal committee of Kerry’s headquarters during the presidential election. In 2015, he attracted attention during the conclusion of the Iranian deal and Netanyahu's visit to the United States in order to speak in Congress with objections to the deal. Obama and Biden did not attend, and Brownstein wrote an article stating that Netanyahu has nothing to do in the United States.

The clan's political, economic and legal interests can be combined: the same mayor of Jerusalem, Nir Barkat, the head of the city that is about to become the capital, resigned as mayor in favor of a post in the Knesset.

What is this if not the result of decisions made within the clan?

- Moreover, in parallel with this, there was a process of intense pressure from the press on the heads of US departments who were pursuing the ideological line of Trump's program. Attacks then began on a group of protectionist ministers who were preparing a trade war with Europe. The same attacks were observed during the approval of presidential nominations in the Senate for the posts of secretary of state and head of the CIA. Both appointments were delayed: Pompeo was supposed to be approved by the secretary of state before, and not after Macron's visit to the United States on April 24, and Gina Haspel was supposed to take over as head of the CIA before Trump announced the US withdrawal from the Iranian deal, not after. In both cases, the sabotage came from the House Intelligence Committee and the International Relations Committee. On both committees, people associated with Kerry and Ryan play a role.

The Boston Globe published an article that mentioned Kerry's "political moves" - his non-public overseas meetings with political leaders in connection with Trump's revision of the terms of the Iranian deal. It also mentioned that since February, Kerry has been "courting" Ryan about Iran. This period, which ended with the appointments of Pompeo and Haspel, was accompanied by pressure from Special Prosecutor Mueller and his investigations. Moreover, the closer these investigations get to the Middle East, the more they concern Saudi Arabia, the UAE and the intermediaries between them and the United States. For ties with the UAE, they attracted people close not only to Trump, but also to Tony Blair. The reason was the meeting of these people with representatives of Russia in the Seychelles.

That is, one small detail related to Russia became the reason for the continuation of the line of suspects?

- There was an investigation into the connections of Trump's lawyer with Russian oligarchs: Vekselberg and his entourage, who sponsored Trump's inaugural committee. Everything moved in the direction of the Middle East and went so far that Mueller began to take an interest in Israeli companies already connected with the mentioned persons and allegedly even helping Trump to track the movements of Kerry and his people.

The turning point came after the approval of Pompeo, which was delayed until the meeting of the foreign ministers of NATO countries, where the agenda of the upcoming NATO summit in Brussels regarding Afghanistan was discussed. Moreover, the more active the Afghan opposition was, the more active Mueller was. When Trump announced his withdrawal from the Iranian deal, the deal with Boeing was publicly terminated. Until this point, it was believed that Kerry and his team were closely associated with the Boeing corporation, but the break of the agreement showed that this was not the case. But John Bolton's appointment to the National Security Council of two vice presidents of the same Boeing speaks of the corporation's ties with a different group of people. One of the appointees is Mira Ricardel, who holds the same post that Nadia Shadlow held earlier. Ricardel, even at the time when Holbrooke and people close to him were engaged in Afghanistan, was developing her own version of the Dayton Peace Agreement in Bosnia, in light of which her origin is especially remarkable - she is Croatian. The second Boeing man to be inducted into the National Security Council, Charles Kupperman, has a long history of ties to Bolton and the opposition to the Dayton Accords.

The turning point did not end there. This process will continue, as can be seen from the events in Europe. Macron and those who bet on him were confident that the next head of the European Commission would be Michelle Barnier, a member of the Le Siecle club, who regularly "pushes Teresa May on the table" over Brexit. Other candidates were also named, but they were all in one way or another beneficial to Paris, when suddenly a German candidacy appeared - Manfred Weber. And as soon as it appeared, Germany was engulfed in a political scandal with Britain. In short, Elizabeth II, a very old man, showed a keen understanding of the situation. On April 25, an article appeared in the Moroccan press that the Windsors descended from the Prophet Muhammad, being close relatives of the kings of Morocco and Jordan. And this was said precisely at the moment when French intellectuals issued an imprudent statement about the need to redo the Koran. So this is a clever response.

And an unpleasant surprise for Paris …

- Yes, but this "ideological surprise" went almost unnoticed, but we noticed another moment - the visit of Netanyahu on May 9 and his participation in the march of the Immortal Regiment with the portrait of the Hero of the Soviet Union Wolf Vilensky. A lot of different things have been written about this, but something else is important. What image does the viewer see? Netanyahu is walking, carrying a portrait, and around him are many people of Slavic appearance.

The phenomenon is that for a long time in the world media the entire Second World War was reduced to the Holocaust. It turned out that, as if, except for Jews and Gypsies, no one was hurt. This provoked a counter-reaction in the form of the revisionist movement, which in turn provoked a counter-reaction in the form of the Antifa movement. Today this movement takes an active part in the events around Palestine.

Both Palestine and Israel are the same objects of ideological transformations, like all other countries, moreover, the second language into which the famous book of the late Gene Sharp, the father of the color revolutions, was translated, was Arabic - precisely to prepare for what we are seeing in Palestine. The same structures, sources and persons work with opposite audiences while sitting in California, and the results of their work have many similarities with the Kiev events of 2013-2014.

And when Netanyahu appears among Russians, it means he is abandoning the pre-existing stereotype. After that, one of the Jewish schools in Jerusalem was painted with inscriptions. Of course, there were both "Freedom to Palestine!" And "Bang the stove!", But these are pretty standard slogans of protest. But there was also the inscription "There is no God", which indicates the absence of a religious background to the protests. This is what Antifa has degenerated into under the influence of the progressive machine, which is becoming more and more Malthusian, which has always been reflected in the Bilderberg program.
