Dear CCI Friends,
Those of you who watch Russia’s immediate neighbors may be wondering what will happen as Belarus heats up for change.
Chris Weafer, Russia’s top expert on their financial realm, as recognized by the Financial Times, The New York Times and numerous international papers and pundits, sends the following report on Belarus.
It sounds like the situation will be handled without major conflict.
Dear Friends,
The New York Times has forfeited its position as Paper of Record. It qualifies as something near the National Inquirer.
Ray McGovern, a former CIA and daily briefer for three American Presidents, is steaming at the rumors now being circulated as truth in The New York Times.
Read and wonder … have we totally lost our national integrity?
Please forward to your family and friends.
Dear CCI Friends,
Unbelievable! This happened yesterday!
Why would anyone sanction research facilities for creating a vaccine for Covid-19?
It is hard to believe that our country would do such a vile act. Who put this in motion?
Was it anger at not being “First”? Jealousy? Did they think they wouldn’t be found out?
Dear CCI Friends,
Two serious watchers of “all things Russian” make cogent points about this latest rumor being circulated regarding Alexei Navalny. Rumors spread diseased opinions when people in power are deeply worried about their own survivability.
David Speedie and Krishen Mehta are men greatly respected in their own fields of expertise. It is time more such persons speak out about contrived rumors making front page news in The New York Times.
Dear CCI Friends,
This coming Tuesday, August 25 at 6:20 PDT I will speak via Zoom with my own Rotary Club, the E-Club of World Peace.
I’ve been told that I can invite you to link in. See the invitation below, reserve your spot if you wish to join and get the Zoom link. Also send a confirmation email to: davidwick111@gmail.com.
I look forward to sharing our unusual CCI history of working between the world’s two Superpowers. Once again we have a daunting responsibility to address the issues of war and peace by creating constructive citizen-to-citizen, citizen-to-power relations in the immediate months ahead. I see a way to make this happen independent of political parties.
Join us Tuesday, whether you are Rotarian or not. Makes no difference! We have always worked with all people of goodwill, in addition to hundreds of Rotary clubs across America that supported us as volunteers with our large CCI programs throughout the 1990’s and 2000’s.
