(28 June 2022) A bold proposal by the U.S. government to tighten the “International Health Regulations” (IHR) failed at the 75th World Health Assembly in Geneva because it was resisted by African and other countries that did not want to submit so easily to a health dictatorship from Washington and Geneva. Negotiations will now continue until 2024, in parallel with the proposed “Global Treaty on Pandemics”.

(11 June 2022) Sic transit gloria mundi: This is how the splendour of the world degenerates! The WEF, once a hopeful international platform where high-ranking politicians and influential business managers could meet and talk on neutral Swiss soil. The WEF, today a neo-liberal economic propaganda event that strives for globalisation under Western leadership, not least at Swiss expenses, and simply excluding disobedient countries. A geopolitical tragedy.

(11 June 2022) (Edit.) Marc Chesney is professor of finance at the University of Zurich. He has long urged major banks and other financial corporations to stop giving money to companies that produce nuclear and other heavy weapons but to help promote the good of our planet through sustainable credits.
(30 May 2022) (Edit.) If you consume the usual media – Anne Will to Günther Jauch, FAZ to NZZ, TAZ to Spiegel – you could get the impression that “the whole world” is in favour of supplying heavy weapons to Ukraine.
