Instead of engaging the leaders of Russia and China in a serious deliberation on what to do about the multiplicity of crises affecting the world, the G7 and NATO leaders put forward a series of unserious, if not downright lunatic proposals, during their confabs over the last days.  Their proposals for global infrastructure and battling the COVID pandemic were not serious, but instead would continue the policies which have left infrastructure — including that of public health — incapable of serving the needs of nations and their people.  As for their strategic communique, it is more of the same false accusations against Russia and China, to justify military buildup and geopolitical confrontation.  Where are the statesmen and women, when they’re needed?  They will be at the Schiller Institute online conference, June 26-7.  Join us!
