Before dying, in November 2010, French
esotericist of Romanian origin Jean Parvulesco argued that, whether we are
aware of it or not, we find ourselves at the crossroads of “great history.”
What did Parvulesco mean? In an article published by the daily Izvestia in
October 2011 during his presidential campaign, Russia’s strongman Vladimir Putin
outlined for the first time his plans for the creation of a Eurasian Union.
Calling a “historic milestone” the kick off on 1 January, 2012 of the Common
Economic Space of Russia, Belarus
and Kazakhstan (CES), the former KGB officer pointed out that a partnership
between the future Eurasian Union and the EU “will prompt changes in the
geopolitical and geoeconomic setup of the continent as a whole with a
guaranteed global effect.”
According
to Parvulesco, the Eurasian agenda is actually promoted not only in the former
Soviet countries, but also across Europe by
specific geopolitical groups, who often work in clandestinity. Like the Project
for a New American Century in the United States,
in Europe there would be think tanks involved in the construction of a new Eurasia. Despite their secrecy, Parvulesco was able to
lay his hands on one article titled “The Imperial Eurasian Pact.” Similar to
the idea put into action by the Neocons after 9/11, the paper stated that, “It
is the confrontation of our imperial and catholic doctrines with the current political-historical
reality […] which will see the final emergence of the catholic Great Empire
which constitutes our ultimate objective, the Imperium Ultimum, the Regnum
Sanctum, which should comport, in principle, three operational stages […].”
The
first stage was the creation of the Paris-Berlin-Moscow axis, that is
considered to be the axis along which this major change will occur. This axis should
tie together the destinies of France,
Germany and Russia. The
second stage is the integration of Europe with Russia,
India and Japan. The final stage involves
what is termed the destruction of the “global democratic conspiracy” led by the
United States, including a
revolutionary liberation of its people, after which America as a whole will become one
entity. But who would be the architect
of the Eurasian revolution? For Parvulesco, the “messiah” is he: Russia’s
current president Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin.
According
to Parvulescu, Putin is a direct emanation of secret revolutionary groups within
the Armed Forces of the Soviet Union first, and then Russia. These, he believed, are
trying to make their decades-long secret battle public, moving to an open type
of rule. Whereas some conspiracy theorists claim the CIA and various secret
societies like the Skull & Bones are the real puppet masters of American
politics, Parvulesco argued the situation in Russia is not much different. Nevertheless,
unlike in the US where the
“conspiracy” is often faceless, Parvulesco listed two people as Russia’s master
conspirators.
GENERAL SERGEI MATVEEVICH SHTEMENKO
One
was the chief of the Soviet Security Service (GRU) and one time Commander in
Chief of the former Warsaw Pact, General Sergei Matveevich Shtemenko; the other
was Marshall Nikolai Vasilyevich Ogarkov, a former head of the Soviet military. Ogarkov, who died in 1994, is rumoured to have been behind a failed
coup attempt which in turn led to a kind of counter-conspiracy that brought
Mikhail Gorbachev to power. Parvulesco is not alone in his assessment of these
two men. French intelligence expert Pierre de Villemarest, who wrote a history
of the GRU (labelled “the Soviet’s most secret service”), says Shtemenko was
“one of the first geopoliticians of the Soviet Union,
perhaps even the first.”
Although
de Villemarest calls the General a Soviet, he considered himself to be truly a
“Great Russian.” “For this caste,“ writes de Villemarest, “the Soviet Union was
an Empire that was called to dominate the Eurasian continent, not only from the
Ural to Brest, but also from the Ural to Mongolia, from Central Asia to the
Mediterranean.” We can only wonder whether the present drive by the Kremlin to
expand cooperation with the European Union and the Asia-Pacific economies, and the
stubborn support to Bashar al Assad’s regime in Syria, are steps in the direction
of creating such an empire, the Eurasian Empire of the End Times.
