The West’s support of Neo-Nazism in Ukraine should come as no surprise. Historically, powerful U.S. financial interests not only supported Nazi Germany as well as Bandera Nazism in Ukraine. In some regards the totalitarian practice of Neo-nazism is akin to the doctrine of the Neocons as formulated in the Project of the New American Century (PNAC).
And Serbia, Beware, you are the only country in Europe which has courageously stood up against US pressures.
This and much more is revealed in this interview with Prof. Michel Chossudovsky, economist, professor emeritus at the University of Ottawa and editor of the renowned anti-globalist Global Research website.
Dragan Vujicic: How do you view the war between Ukraine and Russia?
Prof Michel Chossudovsky: The war in Ukraine ended before it began. The Russians literally destroyed their Air Force and Navy at the very outset in February-March 2022.
Also Russia has strategic control over a large part of the Black Sea and total control of the Sea of Azov. Turkey which is a NATO heavyweight is an unspoken ally of Russia. Turkey controls the southern flank of the Black Sea.
Anyone who has a minimal understanding of military strategies, knows that you cannot wage a conventional ground war without a Navy and an Airforce.
Now, after these recent Pentagon “leaks”, there is ample evidence that Ukraine is running out of ammunition and that they do not have (even with US-NATO support) the military capabilities to confront the Russians.
Hopefully there will be a cease-fire to save lives. I think that the war could end in a month or so and negotiations might begin. But there are obstacles to reaching this objective. There is a crisis in bona fide diplomacy. The Biden administration refuses to enter into dialogue with Russia with a view to reaching a cease-fire and peace negotiations.
In fact, the biggest problem is that politicians in America believe in their own propaganda. They think they can defeat Russia by using nuclear weapons. Nukes have been re-categorized. Tactical so-called low yield mini-nukes have been slated for use in the conventional war theater. If nukes are used that would lead us into a WW III scenario.
I have researched the history of nuclear weapons, starting with the Manhattan Project (the creation of the American atomic bomb). Many people simply do not know that the Manhattan Project in the immediate wake of Hiroshima, Nagasaki in August 1945 was intended to wage a nuclear war against the USSR, at a time when the Soviet Union and the U.S. were allies.
DV: Are you talking about plans for nuclear war after 1945?
PMC: What I am referring to is the U.S Blueprint of September 15, 1945 according to which the US War Department planned to drop more than 200 atomic bombs on 66 cities of the Soviet Union. This is not mentioned in the history books. See: LINK, LINK
Soviet Cities to be targeted with Atomic Bombs
Map of 66 Soviet Urban Strategic Areas to be Bombed with 206 atomic Bombs (Declassified September 1945)
Moreover, what is also forgotten in our history books is that in January 1918, a multi-national force consisting of troops from the UK, US, Canada and Japan invaded the Soviet Union with 200,000 soldiers, supposedly to “calm down the revolutionaries”, but in fact it was an illegal invasion.
This happened exactly two months after the October Revolution, on January 12, 1918, and it lasted until the early 1920s.
DV: What are the nuclear capabilities of the U.S’s main rivals today?
PMC: Russia and China are on par with the U.S. with regard to nuclear capabilities. The U.S. has a 1.3 trillion dollar project assigned solely to nuclear weapons, which constitutes Big Money for the US-NATO defense contractors. We are at a dangerous crossroads. Western politicians believe that they can win a nuclear war.
DV: With the war in Ukraine, Nazism has reemerged, now they call it neo-Nazism?
PMC: The U.S. financial establishment have supported the Nazis since the outset of the Third Reich. Wall Street, The Federal Reserve and the Bank of England supported Adolf Hitler’s election campaign for Chancellor in the wake of the Weimar Republic. They had business interests in Nazi Germany. There were powerful US economic interests behind the Third Reich including Prescott Bush, the grandfather of George W. Bush.
Moreover, it is common knowledge that you do not go to war if you do not have Oil and Hitler started Operation Barbarossa on June 22, 1941, a military operation for which he needed a huge amount of fuel. Rockefeller’s Standard Oil of New Jersey (today’s Exxon) supplied Hitler’s troops until 1945. Without the sale of U.S. oil to Nazi Germany, Operation Barbarossa would not have taken place.
Before Harry Truman became president in 1945, when he was senator he stated his position as follows:
“If we see that Germany is winning the war, we ought to help Russia; and if Russia is winning, we ought to help Germany”
DV: Today the world is moving towards de-dollarization and the Multipolar world is born.
PMC: I think many analysts and journalists do not understand what de-dollarization means. The dollar as a currency is not the main issue. What is at stake is the macroeconomic apparatus of dollarised countries and their relationship with Wall Street and the Washington consensus.
The Federal Reserve, Wall Street et al, generate dollar denominated debts, which then enables them to enforce Neoliberal economic policies Worldwide.
The central banks of dollarized Third World countries are invariably defunct, controlled by Wall Street, the IMF and the World Bank.
De-dollarization requires “Exit” from the institutions which sustain the (dollar denominated) Debt Crisis. These institutions include the IMF and the WB (which control the central banks of the Global South), not to mention the regional development banks and the World Trade Organization (WTO).
As far as the BRICS member states are concerned, India, South Africa and Brazil are heavily dollarized, ie. in the stranglehold of IMF conditionalities. They are not sovereign nation-states. What is required is for sovereign countries to have their own central bank which does not depend on external creditors.
DV: Is Russia considered the bearer of the current de-dollarization?
PMC: Their post-Cold War financial and banking institutions are in many regards still aligned with the West. Let us recall that the neoliberal agenda was imposed on Russia under the proxy Boris Yeltsin government in the early 1990s.
I should also mention the fate of Russia’s gold and dollar deposits in Western banks. They are significant for the Russian government. When Russia’s “Special Military Operation” began in February 2022, about 200 billion dollars of Russia’s Central Bank reserves deposited in Western banks were frozen. And that does not include the billions of dollars of assets of Russia’s “oligarchs” deposited in the Western banking system. Why did they not attempt to withdraw those funds?
DV: Is Russia, from a military standpoint better organized than the USA and NATO.
PMC: The US and European companies which produce weapons for US-NATO, (i.e. the military industrial complex) are entirely in private hands. In practice, the wars waged by US-NATO are privatized, they serve private corporate interests under the label of “national security”.
The “owners of war” are primarily interested in profit and more profit, from the proceeds of weapons sales, rather than the performance of the advanced weapons systems which they sell to US-NATO.
Militarily, Russia is ahead of US-NATO in many regards, specifically with regard to its air defense system (S-400) which is superior to the U.S. Patriot (ADS).
DV: There are many stupid and dangerous things in that war?
PMC: Yes, let’s point to the actions of the so-called International Criminal Court (ICC), which accused President Putin of the war crime of forcibly transferring Ukrainian children to Russia. This is obvious nonsense. The ICC did not blame Russia for aggression against a neighboring country, but for removing children from war-torn areas in Donbass, ultimately to save the lives of those children. It’s idiocy and the ICC is totally corrupt.
DV: When talking about the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, what is the relevance of the Davos WEP agenda?
PMC: Russia’s relations with the World Economic Forum are contradictory. Eight months before the February 2022 “Special Military Operation”, Russia participated in a scenario with the WEF on procedures and actions in the event of a major cyber attack.
The “Davos players” are routinely in contact with Russia’s financial establishment. In turn Russia’s financial and banking interests including Russia’s Central Bank have retained their connections with the Washington Consensus as well as with the IMF and the World Bank.
Putin is aware that there are intruders in Russia’s financial system.
DV: What to do when the UN is absolutely blocked?
PMC: It must be known that the UN was at the outset a project which was very much influenced by powerful banking interests including the Rockefellers. I should say that the UN system at the outset of the post war era had international legitimacy and acceptance as an instrument of peace. I have worked for a number of UN agencies as a consultant.
Now the UN is de facto privatized and coopted, partner of the WEF, serving the interests of the financial elites. I would characterize them as “sold out”. They have betrayed the United Nations.
As outlined by the late Padre Miguel d’Escoto Brockmann (who was President of the UN General Assembly in 2008-2009), the UN system needs to be completely restructured with a view to restoring the true spirit of internationalism.
Padre Miguel was my mentor. In this regard, I have worked in Asia, China, Latin America… and I realize just how people from all walks of life in different continents share the same values. Everyone should live in justice and with justice.
DV: How do you view Serbia’s international position?
PMC: Exceptional. Serbia has not caved in to the pressures of Washington, i.e. sanctions on Russia.
DV: Serbia is still being pressured to give up Kosovo and Metohija?
PMC: Based on my experience and from the documents on the international status of Kosovo. I do not think it is possible to negotiate the possibility of Kosovo and Metohija gaining the status of a sovereign nation state. Kosovo and Metohija belong to Serbia under international law. It is true that there is a US military base there but that is another topic for discussion.
DV: What is another reason why the Republic of Kosovo must not be internationally recognized?
PMC: The leader of the KLA, Hashim Thaci in 1998-99 was wanted by Interpol, for crimes committed in the 1990s. He was used by US-NATO to create a mafia state.
Hashim Thaci and Madeleine Albright, (1998)
It’s ironic that Thaci is now being held in prison and tried for crimes against humanity committed in the late 1990s. Why didn’t they arrest him in 1999, when they knew everything?

always love another libtard article glorifying more nigher and inbred muzlim rasizm against everybody else. only dead nigher is a good nigger. everybody knows that.
it is terrifying to know the globalists think they can win a nuclear war and ukraine is just the prelude in a western propaganda scheme. their strength and their weakness is the dollar and the demise of the dollar and euro must be a major factor in their using war to retain world hegemony.
the professor says it well, however, he fails to mention what lenin, stalin, krushchev and brezhnev did afterwards.
glad to see some writer remembered operation polar bear. also, reagan’s regime callaboration with old ukrainian nazis, to undermine the ussr. nikita khuschev created this pariah state of the ussr colonial era in eastern europe.
yes quite true, the ‘nazi’ is talmudic jewry–ashkenazi…its gots nothing to do with germans or white people
the distance between alaska and russian mainland is very close. somehow people don’t think interms of the globe.
siberia and alaska are at the diomedes islands by 21/2 miles of behring sea.
yep boarder between america and russia.
the sick irony here is than many fans of putin in west are neonazis and racists themselves. i was shocked when reading guest of the saker blog, thorsten pattberg and his very racist full of hatred article last year. these folks are also denialists of covid-19 and haters green energy. so these kind of “friends of putin”.
dur durrr durr are you ready for your tenth booster?
covid-19 lab virus was no worse than flu to most people. showing smokers suffering to breath in china was part of project fear. people with health problems yes a concern. now to vaxxs this was profit for ziopharma and damage healthy people to create future patients and corpses (wef control agenda).
few deny covid, most people are fed up with the propaganda and most racialist groups support zelensky, alongside anarcho-trotskyists.
lmaaoooo, is this comment satire or what?
contrary to the author’s claim, uk, us, canada and japan did not invade the soviet union in january 1918 because the soviet union did not exist at that time. the soviet union was formed in december 1922. this is sloppy research that may give rise to the suspicion that his other claims could be wrong.
when was the revolution between the “red army” and the “white russian” army?
they were correct to help the legitimacy against the red terror.
exactly, how can people knowingly support the privatization of international institutions and thus the privatization og war?
so why serbian journalist from “srbin info” was arrested if a. vucic didn’t give away serbian territory kosovo and metohija ?
why a. vucic fears serbs from kosovo and metohija and why he fears to meet them there ?
