American Trojan Horses penetrating Sri Lanka Now?
by Michael Roberts
( January 5, 2016, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) George Soros, founder of Soros Fund Management LLC, takes part in a panel discussion at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank annual fall meeting in Washington, D.C., U.S., on Saturday, Sept. 24, 2011. The IMF said it is ready to “strongly support” European nations in their efforts to resolve the region’s sovereign-debt crisis.
George Soros and Prof. Joseph Stiglitz will be visiting Sri Lanka in the next few days for discussions on economic and political paths at the highest levels. Their visits are a consolidation of American ‘patronage’ of the Yahapalanaya government marked by preceding visits from John Kerry and Samantha Power, heavyweights in the USA government. Both Soros and Stiglitz are controversial figures, subject to searing criticism from right-wing currents in USA as well as (2) left-wing intellectuals with grounded insights into the operations of the US government and (3) nationalists in the old colonized countries who are wary of the machinations of those so-called ’international’ agencies’ who espouse R2P interventions in support of human rights in ways that seem to complement USA’s agendas.
It is preceded by Item A, a short MEMO on the run (Blackberry) from the Canadian lawyer-intellectual Christopher Black in response to my query
ITEM A
Dear Chris, …. Are these warnings re Soros [Patriot’s article} justified? Can you please clarify the indication [Black’s previous exchanges with Roberts — way back in 2015] that Soros has CIA funds and the seeming contradiction between that claim because the Soros enterprises are OSTENSIBLY left-wing? ….. Michael
Michael, ….. There is a lot of material on Soros on the net. He is not left [ Left wing radical] – [rather] he is just a swindler with great wealth who destroys any country he chooses to make money in. He supports NGOs who take apart socialist economies to replace them with economies dominated by big capital … and he is closely connected to United States’ Government and all its services. …………….. Chris
Ranil brings Soros who destroyed economies in Eastern Asian countries
Prime Minister, while making a special statement in Parliament on 5th November, said that billionaire businessman George Soros would be invited to Sri Lanka. Soros arrived in Sri Lanka yesterday (2nd).
Born in Hungary and considered as the second biggest investor in the world Soros is a US businessman who has been accused regarding the economic and financial crisis that occurred in Eastern Asia during mid nineties.
Malaysia’s former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad accused him of destroying the economy of Eastern Asian countries by instantly withdrawing funds that had been invested in those countries.
Also, two foundations launched by George Soros have been officially banned by the Russian government. Russia charged that the groups pose a threat to Russian national security and public order.
He arrived in Sri Lanka last night with his wife and children. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe, who was holidaying in the UK, arrived in the island today (3rd) morning. He is expected to make a special statement tomorrow.
