The Moldovan Stanislav Pavlovschi<\/a>, a former judge at the European Court of Human Rights, whom the current Government of Moldova then appointed as Minister of Justice, quit that post two weeks later and joined the newly formed Dignity and Truth Platform Party<\/a>. At the time of his resignation from the Justice Ministry in 2019, he said, \u201cI identified several personal incompatibilities, which, unfortunately, according to the Constitution of the Republic of Moldova make my activity impossible as a Member of the Government. \u2026 I remain committed to the democratic and pro-European values, promoted by the Dignity and Truth Platform, and I will continue to promote them in the position of the deputy chairman of the Political Party Dignity and Truth Platform.\u201d Of course, that was in 2019.<\/p>\n

Now, in a news-report by Kit Klarenberg at The Gray Zone<\/em>, Mr. Pavlovschi is quoted as saying<\/a>: \u201cMoldova now is governed by the US Ambassador. \u2026 He is practically governing Moldova at this particular stage. You have hundreds of consultants for the EU \u2026 working for each and every ministry here in Moldova. So it is under very, very strict control on the part of the EU.\u201d<\/p>\n

There is extensive history behind this. And it explains why the U.S. Government sub-contracts to the EU the political control over Moldova. (Ukraine had been treated the same way.) Richard J. Aldrich\u2019s 2003 The Hidden Hand<\/i><\/a> says, on page 366, about the CIA\u2019s American Committee for a United Europe:<\/p>\n

ACUE, more than any other American front organization of the Cold War, was a direct creature of the leading lights of the CIA. Indeed, it was so replete with famous CIA figures that its \u2018front\u2019 was very thin. Its early years seemed to have formed something of a laboratory for figures such as [Bill] Donovan, [Allen] Dulles, [Walter] Bedell Smith and [Tom] Braden, before they moved on to other projects in the mid-1950s. Over its first three years of operations, 1949-51, ACUE received $384,650, the majority being dispersed to Europe. This was a large sum, but from 1952 ACUE began to spend such sums annually. The total budget for the period 1949-60 amounted to approximately $4 million. As the quantity of money flowing across the Atlantic began to increase, ACUE opened a local Paris office to monitor more closely groups that had received grants. By 1956, the flood of increased funding was prompting fears among the Directors of ACUE that its work would be publicly exposed. \u2026<\/p>\n

The emerging European Economic Community (EEC) and the growing Western intelligence community overlapped to a considerable degree. This is underlined by the creation of the Bilderberg Group, an informal and secretive transatlantic council of key decision-makers [representatives of the billionaires<\/a> who controlled U.S. and U.S.-allied international corporations]. Bilderberg was founded by Joseph Retinger and Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands in 1952 in response to the rise of anti-Americanism in Europe. \u2026 Retinger secured support from Averell Harriman, David Rockefeller and Walter Bedell Smith. The formation of the American wing of Bilderberg was entrusted to Eisenhower\u2019s psychological warfare chief, C.D. Jackson, and the funding for the first meeting, held at the Hotel de Bilderberg in Holland in 1954, was provided by the CIA.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Funds for these CIA operations came not only from the U.S. Treasury but from private sources, America\u2019s super-rich, and, also from organized gangsters, as was revealed in the 1998 classic by Alexander Cockburn and Jeffrey St. Clair, Whiteout: The CIA, Drugs and the Press<\/i><\/a>. This off-the-books funding comes from narcotics kingpins throughout the world, as protection-money, which is essential to keep them in business. So, the EU was financially fueled from all of these sources, and, basically, was a bribing-operation (to end up getting the \u2018right\u2019 people into the EU\u2019s Parliament, etc.), in addition to be receiving funds from what might be considered idealistic philanthropic donors (because the dream of a united Europe had long preceded the grubby version of it that the CIA created for Europeans).<\/p>\n

The EU was a Cold War operation, from its very start. It remains that to the present day<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ambrose Evans-Pritchard of UK\u2019s Telegraph<\/i> newspaper issued two important articles about this, the first being his 19 September 2000 \u201cEuro-federalists financed by US spy chiefs\u201d<\/a>:<\/p>\n

DECLASSIFIED American government documents show that the US intelligence community ran a campaign in the Fifties and Sixties to build momentum for a united Europe. It funded and directed the European federalist movement. \u2026 One memorandum, dated July 26, 1950, gives instructions for a campaign to promote a fully fledged European parliament. It is signed by Gen William J Donovan, head of the American wartime Office of Strategic Services, precursor of the CIA.<\/p>\n

The documents were found by Joshua Paul, a researcher at Georgetown University in Washington. They include files released by the US National Archives. Washington’s main tool for shaping the European agenda was the American Committee for a United Europe, created in 1948. The chairman was Donovan, ostensibly a private lawyer by then.<\/p>\n

The vice-chairman was Allen Dulles, the CIA director in the Fifties. The board included Walter Bedell Smith, the CIA’s first director, and a roster of ex-OSS figures and officials who moved in and out of the CIA. The documents show that ACUE financed the European Movement, the most important federalist organisation in the post-war years. In 1958, for example, it provided 53.5 per cent of the movement’s funds.<\/p>\n

The European Youth Campaign, an arm of the European Movement, was wholly funded and controlled by Washington. The Belgian director, Baron Boel, received monthly payments into a special account. When the head of the European Movement, Polish-born Joseph Retinger, bridled at this degree of American control and tried to raise money in Europe, he was quickly reprimanded.<\/p>\n

The leaders of the European Movement \u2014 Retinger, the visionary Robert Schuman and the former Belgian prime minister Paul-Henri Spaak \u2014 were all treated as hired hands by their American sponsors. The US role was handled as a covert operation. ACUE’s funding came from the Ford and Rockefeller foundations as well as business groups with close ties to the US government.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Then, on 27 April 2016, he bannered \u201cThe European Union always was a CIA project, as Brexiteers discover\u201d<\/a> and reported:<\/p>\n

It was Washington that drove European integration in the late 1940s, and funded it covertly under the Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon administrations. \u2026 The US has relied on the EU ever since as the anchor to American regional interests alongside NATO. \u2026 It is odd that this magisterial 1000-page study<\/a> found only a French-language publisher. [Roussel\u2019s Jean Monnet<\/a>. The French Wikipedia\u2019s article on Roussel<\/a> says \u201cEn 1995, il \u00e9crit une biographie consacr\u00e9e \u00e0 Jean Monnet2 qui re\u00e7oit le prix de l’Essai de l’Acad\u00e9mie fran\u00e7aise, le prix Guizot, et le prix europ\u00e9en de l\u2019histoire.<\/em>\u201d Despite all of those awards, the work is little-known, even in France.] Nor are many aware of declassified documents from the State Department archives showing that US intelligence funded the European movement secretly for decades, and worked aggressively behind the scenes to push Britain into the project. \u2026<\/p>\n

[The CIA] treated some of the EU\u2019s \u2018founding fathers\u2019 as hired hands, and actively prevented them finding alternative funding that would have broken reliance on Washington. \u2026 The American \u2018deep state\u2019 was in up to its neck. \u2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Since that newspaper (like all major news-media in the U.S. and in its vassal-nations are) is both neoliberal and neoconservative, the neoconservative Pritchard<\/a> approved of all this. He did it by saying: \u201cThere is nothing particularly wicked about this. The US acted astutely in the context of the Cold War. The political reconstruction of Europe was a roaring success.\u201d However, obviously, no authentic democracy can exist in a nation that\u2019s governed by means of deceiving its public; nor can any democracy be an empire, either the imperialistic nation itself, or one of its vassal-nations, because that\u2019s merely \u201cDeep State\u201d rule, behind the scenes, by its billionaires \u2014 an aristocracy, and not a democracy, which reigns there. Though all of the country\u2019s major news-media will support the aristocracy \u2014 since they\u2019ll all be owned by the aristocracy \u2014 anyone who calls it a \u2018democracy\u2019 is transparently a fool or a liar, because it\u2019s an aristocracy, which is the opposite. In fact, the CIA built today\u2019s Europe on the basis of hiring \u2018ex\u2019-Nazis and \u2018ex\u2019-Fascists there<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Nowadays, some of America\u2019s billionaires are bypassing the taxpayer-funded CIA, State Department, etc., in order to control European nations \u2014 and even the EU itself \u2014 directly, by hiring consultants to rate and evaluate each of the members of the European Parliament, in order to determine which ones need to be replaced and which ones need to receive increased campaign-funding. For example, one of these reports for George Soros, that leaked online, was the 119-page study, \u201cReliable allies in the European Parliament (2014 \u2013 2019)\u201d<\/a>, which described and listed each one of them. And, too, there was the U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine, Geoffrey Pyatt, who on 27 January 2014, received by phone the instructions from Obama\u2019s planner of the coup in Ukraine<\/a>, Victoria Nuland, on how to complete the coup and make it \u201cstick\u201d<\/a>, and whom to place at the head of Ukraine\u2019s government when it would be completed (\u201cYats\u201d or \u201cYatsenyuk\u201d) which did become successfully completed exactly a month later<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Unlike in former eras, when the billionaires were the large land-owners and got from the Monarch formal titles of Nobility and were quite open about the supremacist character of their Government, and the public were called \u201csubjects\u201d instead of \u201ccitizens,\u201d the terminology has changed, though the reality has not. Nowadays they don\u2019t even publicly declare their international dictatorship to be an \u201cEmpire,\u201d and rule itself is entirely behind-the scenes by the billionaires by means of their millions of hired agents whose performance is being constantly monitored by or on behalf of their patrons, the groups of billionaires that are funding their careers. And so the aristocracy continues, but the terminology has changed in order to fool the public that they live in a \u201cdemocracy.\u201d<\/p>\n

So: what Pavlovschi now is saying is that the corruption comes from the U.S. Government, by way of the EU.<\/p>\n
