Fewer and fewer countries and people in the world intend to tolerate the extremely hypocritical behavior of the Western planetary minority. In fact, when the West accuses its geopolitical and geoeconomic adversaries of “disinformation” campaigns, it naturally forgets to recognize that the undeniable figure of such campaigns throughout the world – is precisely the small Western world, accustomed between other things through such type of campaigns and its affiliated agents to achieve its objectives in terms of sovereign states destabilization. Now it is true, with enormously less success. 

A rather interesting event took place a few days ago. A certain French national, Sébastien Farcis, correspondent for the last 13 years in India and South Asia for several Western propagandist media instruments, including Radio France Internationale (RFI), one of the main French propaganda tools for foreign countries, as well as for the newspaper Libération and other so-called Western media – was de-facto expelled by the competent Indian authorities.

Western propaganda against the world majority

Several points are interesting in this matter. Firstly, French and Western propaganda already denounces “authoritarian excesses” on the part of the Indian authorities. This seems particularly anecdotal taking into account that when representatives of Western propaganda are periodically escorted out of China, Russia or a number of African countries, said Western propaganda immediately qualifies this as the actions of “dictatorial” or “authoritarian” regimes, or even “military juntas”. In the case of India, the paradox is that the country has been considered globally and for decades as the largest world’s democracy. So it turns out that the world’s largest democracy is also on the “bad” camp, according to the Western elements. Although, in principle, everyone understands that any negative characterization from a planetary minority concerns any nation in the world that takes independent measures and actions contrary to the interests of the West.

Another point is also interesting. According to the comment of the character concerned by the expulsion from India – for his own employer in the quality of the French propaganda tool RFI – “Suspicion towards foreign journalists has increased in India. We have been accused of seeking to sabotage India’s economic growth, or even of being financed by foreign governments or by George Soros for this” – assures the French propagandist.

Intelligence agencies, Soros and Western propaganda campaigns 

In reality, it is an open secret – the fact that a large number of Western pseudo-journalists are also agents of Western intelligence services. This is widely known by numerous sources close to the intelligence services in different parts of the world: in the countries of Asia, Africa or Latin America. As for India – just by the way the third world economic power in terms of GDP at purchasing power parity, the fourth military world’s power and which attaches great importance to security issues – including those of an anti-terrorism nature – it is very likely that the accusations made against many Western elements do not come out of nowhere. Especially since the freedom of expression in India is at a much higher level than in the West. This without even addressing the fact that today what kind of freedom of speech would be possible to speak about in the small Western space, at a time when many major non-Western international media have been banned from broadcasting in the so-called “free world”. Including Russian media and others.

But here it is also worth paying attention to the mention of Western intelligence services and the structures of Soros, the sponsor for the destabilization of sovereign states in practically all regions of the world. In fact and from personal experience, it would be necessary to address the following example – a few years ago, French “independent journalists”, as they called themselves, had sought to make contact because leading “investigations” about major African media outlets which were criticizing Western politics – French so-called journalists who in their “work” often cited “anonymous sources” within Western intelligence services, while their famous “articles” were published by media tools, many based in the US and associated precisely with the Soros’s structures.

What is also and obviously interesting here is the way in which the intelligence services of Western Europe, including France, cooperate closely with Sorosian structures. And also to what extent are they aware of the risk for such “cooperation” that they pose to their own country, by using Soros agents among their collaborators in terms of media propaganda. Of course, in the face of non-Western “bad countries” and geopolitical adversaries – Russia, China, Iran and many other BRICS and Global South nations – they may certainly think it’s worth it, but given that Soros is a character who in principle does not possesses the notion of the Motherland as such, it will cost him absolutely nothing, at one point or another, to start – if necessary – to strike certain Western countries if it turns out they didn’t choose the “right path”.

The world majority necessary measures

But obviously and after all – this represents their internal Western kitchen, and which should not particularly interest us. What is really important is definitely something else. At a time when many Western sources admit their defeat in the informational war – particularly of the French regime in Africa – the forces of the planetary minority nevertheless do not intend to abandon their predatory intentions. And this targets Africa, Eurasia and practically all regions of the global humanity majority. This therefore means that it is actively necessary to remove the Western propaganda instruments, as well as their agents, from as many countries in the world as possible. Moreover and in this regard, our country Russia, which Western propagandists describe as an “authoritarian regime”, has not yet taken all the necessary measures to this end. Meanwhile, these propagandists-agents of Western intelligence services continue to quietly wander the streets of Moscow and other Russian cities.

More than that, the measures must now be taken in a coordinated and joint manner. Within the framework of the BRICS countries, the SCO, the CSTO, the Eurasian Economic Union, the Alliance of Sahel States and other international and regional associations representing the non-Western global majority and embodying the multipolar world order. Especially since the aggressiveness of Westerners and those nostalgic for a unipolar order will only increase. Both through informational and psychological warfare and through terrorist methods. In this sense – it is time to act. Obviously also that Western propaganda absolutely does not want to completely lose the most important markets on the planet – otherwise and in the fairly near future, all that will remain for this propaganda is to be just imposed in Estonia and other Latvia, as well as in a number of other planetary minority regimes. For Western propaganda – such a scenario amounts to catastrophe. And this is why it is very useful today to bring them as close and as quickly as possible to this “catastrophe”.

The East will weigh more heavily, potentially forcing Berlin into a new Ostpolitik and a different approach to both the military conflict in Ukraine and coexistence with Russia.

The elections to the European Parliament (EP) in Germany on 9 June not only polarised positions on the proxy war in Ukraine, with the victory of the hyper-atlanticist CDU/CSU on the one hand and the strong growth of anti-war forces around the AfD and BSW on the other, but also showed that the biggest political divide in the country is between East and West, i.e. between the former states of the GDR and the FRG.

Why, 34 years after the fall of the GDR, is this not only noticeable, but seems to be gaining in strength? Perhaps because the “reunification of Germany” was not really a reunification, but rather an annexation of the GDR into the structures of the Federal Republic of Germany. This was in line with Bonn’s plans for a “geopolitical compromise implicit in the Maastricht Treaty, whereby Europe gave Germany the green light for rapid reunification in exchange for the Europeanisation of the Deutsche Mark”. These are the words of former Italian Foreign Minister Gianni di Michelis, who led his country’s negotiations on the 1992 Treaty on European Union, which established the European Central Bank and the foundations of the single currency.

The Euro as an extended Deutsche Mark, with Washington’s approval

According to him, it was a kind of rebranding and adaptation of the German currency to the new scale of a Europe that would expand eastwards. “The real negotiations took place in absolute secrecy: German reunification would not have been possible without Europe’s consent,” he said. Thus, it took half a year to admit the GDR, with its 16 million inhabitants, which had emerged from a dictatorship and had an economy that didn’t meet EU criteria, while the applications of Spain and Portugal, already democracies, had to be adapted to the strict economic parameters of the EEC before they were approved after seven years.

In 1997, Zbigniew Brzezinski stated in Foreign Affairs that “any expansion of Europe’s political space is automatically an expansion of US influence […] An enlarged Europe will extend the reach of US influence, without at the same time creating a Europe politically integrated enough to challenge the US on issues of geopolitical importance”. This was the former US National Security Advisor’s honest description of the EU’s instrumental role in Washington’s strategic expansion on European soil.

Thus, the GDR and many of its genuinely Germanic structures from the former Prussia were absorbed and eliminated in an FRG dominated by Frankfurt School education, consumerism, mass immigration and Americanised culture. Over the years, this has led to low-intensity reaction movements around the idea of “Ostalgie” (a play on words to describe nostalgia for the East), with a collective identity that has characterised the entire former GDR, including East Berlin.

The end of the war and the reestablishment of relations with Russia

Curiously, this is also where anti-war sentiment is currently strongest, following an institutional trend in Hungary, Slovakia and Serbia, but also among large sections of the population in the Czech Republic, Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria and Austria. This contradicts the Western narrative, which insists on the truism that “the countries of Eastern Europe have great resentment against Russia”.

Coincidentally, it is also in Eastern Germany that there is the strongest reaction against the multicultural model imposed by the EU/NATO, visible in the anti-immigration vote of the AfD and also of a new left that is now emerging in the form of the BSW, with which it has some points in common. It was also here that the major demonstrations against the refugee crisis of 2015/16 took place. Later, with the COVID-19 crisis, it was also in the east that the first large demonstrations against government measures took place. More recently, farmers’ protests have included GDR flags, less a sign of separatism than a clear symbol that “not everything was so bad in the old days”.

«Ossis» and «Wessis»: two world views

A survey by Infratest Dimap, a polling institute specialising in political opinion and electoral studies, published six months after the start of the Russian operation in Ukraine, shows that on some issues related to Russia and the US, the responses are significantly different. For example, in the East the “Ossis” tend to view Russia more favourably, while in the West the “Wessis” tend to be more distrustful of Russia and more sympathetic to the US. When asked, “In terms of culture, mentality and history, are you more attracted to Russia or the US?”, 25 per cent in the East said Russia, 23 per cent the US and 46 per cent neither. When asked the same question in the West, only 7% preferred Russia and 42% the US, while 47% were not attracted to either country.

Sensitivities are again divided when asked about the negative content of news about Russia in the mainstream press or about Western sanctions policy. In the East, there is a greater understanding of Moscow’s current positions, much criticism of NATO enlargement and a clear dislike of the warmongering attitude of Berlin’s political class towards the military conflict in Ukraine.

A new political scenario that could determine geopolitics 

This makes it easier to understand the results of the European elections in the east of the country, with almost 29 per cent of the vote for the AfD, 14 per cent for the debutant BSW and 5 per cent for Die Linke. The three parties, which advocate the resumption of relations with Moscow, the return of Russian energy and an end to arms supplies to Zelensky, together make up almost half of the electorate in the territory of the former GDR. If it were a country, it could be said that the EU/NATO system would not find it easy to play its belligerent political game in a “new GDR”, as it does today in the Federal Republic of Germany.

Germany’s electoral map is currently a huge black spot (CDU/CSU in the west and Berlin) with small Greens and red gaps (SPD) and another large blue spot (AfD), which coincides exactly with the six states of the former GDR, with the exception of Berlin.

Elections will be held in three of the six eastern states in September (Saxony, Thuringia and Brandenburg), and if the results swing towards the AfD and the BSW as expected, the new electoral configuration could lead to new party alliances and open up a completely new political dynamic in Germany. In any case, the east will weigh more heavily, potentially forcing Berlin into a new Ostpolitik and a different approach to both the proxy war in Ukraine and coexistence with Russia.
