French report: Russia/Gazprom funded Western environmental NGOs to agitate to shut down European nuclear power plants.
Gazprom also funded European environmental activists to agitate against shale gas in order keep Europe dependent on Russian gas, according to the report.
Translation: "Hence the interest, for the Russian government, of mounting a vast disinformation campaign against shale gas and civilian nuclear power in the West, by massively funding the groups most likely to naturally oppose it: environmental organizations."
Former NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said that secretary of state Hillary Clinton know that the Russians were funding Western environmental movements, according to the report.
US environmentalist groups took millions of dollars in Russian money through a Bermuda cutout, according to the report.

They reportedly include the Sierra Club and the League of Conservation Voters Education Fund.

They agitated against the American extraction of shale gas.
These and other reports of Russian funding of European and US anti-shale-gas and antinuclear movements prompt the question: Have Putin & Chinese interests been funding elements of the "climate change" agitprop in Western democracies?

Certainly John Kerry has a history...

All the foreign policy failures you see today - provocative weakness that let Putin think he could invade, lack of strategy and policy despite early warning, desperation to get Iran deal, Saudis & UAE dissing POTUS & more - are from the mainstream foreign policy establishment.
Many of the top policy people in this wrecking operation were educated at America’s most prestigious schools for diplomacy and national security. This is the net result of that “education.”
Character matters even more than education.

1) Take a look at Europe and trans-Atlantic relations, and see how they have moved in the direction President Trump envisioned. His 2017 Warsaw speech on sovereignty summed it up nicely. Excerpts follow. nbcnews.com/politics/donal…
2) "Despite every effort to transform you, oppress you, or destroy you, you endured and overcame....

"The story of Poland is the story of a people who have never lost hope, who have never been broken, and who have never, ever forgotten who they are."
3) "there is a courage and a strength deep in the Polish character that no one could destroy. The Polish martyr, Bishop Michael Kozal, said it well: 'More horrifying than a defeat of arms is a collapse of the human spirit.'"

Informative analysis and argument by Dr. Robert Malone about the Ukraine "biolab" controversy.

He's a virologist and microbiologist who is well-connected at the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) that funded the labs.
rwmalonemd.substack.com/p/ukraine-biol…
What Malone colleague said:

"All the mainstream media pundits that suddenly became overnight COVID experts have now suddenly become overnight national foreign policy experts. It is aggravating to watch them cloud the issue and add fuel to the current Russian Chinese propaganda."
Malone: "'Biolabs' is a very generic term. A biolab could be anything from the room with a kitchen sink, microscope ... all the way to a high-containment BSL-4 bioweapon research laboratory housing non-human primates.... It means almost nothing."

Two years ago last week, secret Chinese Communist Party documents were revealed, showing instructions to Chinese diplomats to blame the Covid-19 pandemic on other countries. bitterwinter.org/de-sinicizing-…
On March 8, 2020, Congressman Ted Lieu ripped into the idea of saying "Wuhan Virus" and appeared to imply that the pandemic might have originated in Italy.

The Ukrainian biolabs are nothing new. They were built during Soviet times and targeted for US "defense conversion" & "nonproliferation security" money through Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR/Nunn-Lugar) program. The scandal is that they have not been secured after 25+ years.
2) CTR/Nunn-Lugar program allowed Soviet-era weapons of mass destruction programs to continue under certain circumstances, even when US officials were denied the right to inspect what they were funding.

CTR funding was to dismantle nuclear, chemical & bio weapons facilities.
3) I wrote about this in a 1997 exchange with Assistant Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter and other Clinton Administration officials. It included "germ warfare weapons." academia.edu/11034977/Autho…

Keep in mind that the Western figures who supported the "Sobchak St. Petersburg Mafiya" to run the Kremlin in the 1990s included Bill Clinton, Joe Biden & John Kerry. They ignored the warnings to leverage US aid to keep the chekists out. That mafiya group included Vladimir Putin.
Putin was a deputy mayor of St. Petersburg at the time. I met him in 1993, but he had a creepy chekist look to him so I refused to shake his hand. I didn't know his background until after he moved to Moscow and became Yeltsin's Minister of Security.
The American politicians and their allies who supported the St. Petersburg Mafiya spent years profiting politically or financially from enabling the Russian gangster-state.

So there's a special irony to their denunciation of critics as Putin agents.
