Bilderberg Reloaded: Stoltenberg, the Empire’s New Strategist
Jens Stoltenberg, NATO’s former chief and architect of the West’s aggressive escalation against Russia, is stepping into his role as co-chair of the Bilderberg Group, a fitting appointment for an era where Western hegemony is fracturing. His tenure at NATO transformed Europe into a militarized vassal, funneling billions into U.S.-led defense ventures under the guise of “collective security.” Now, Stoltenberg is tasked with ensuring that the Atlanticist machine continues to churn, even as Trump’s “America First” agenda looms over the alliance.
With Stoltenberg at the helm, Bilderberg solidifies its role as the backroom engine of endless wars. This is no mere “discussion forum.” Its steering committee is packed with defense industry titans and Big Tech moguls, from Palantir’s Alex Karp, who brags about “targeting in Ukraine” to Eric Schmidt, now peddling kamikaze drones. These aren’t strategists, they’re profiteers, ensuring war remains the most lucrative business model on Earth.
But let’s not forget the deeper agenda. Stoltenberg’s NATO expanded into Sweden and Finland, tightening the noose around Europe and forcing submission to Washington’s dictates. Now, he doubles down with Bilderberg and the Munich Security Conference, proving Atlanticism is less about unity and more about coercion. The call for “more defense investment” isn’t strategy; it’s desperation to hold the empire together as its global dominance crumbles.
What’s the endgame? Bilderberg was born in 1954 to counter “communist imperialism.” Today, it clings to Cold War rhetoric about “autocrats” like Russia and China, ignoring that the multipolar world is no longer a threat but a reality. Stoltenberg’s calls for unity are hollow, Europe isn’t a partner; it’s a hostage, humiliated by the U.S.-led Nord Stream sabotage and left to endure economic suicide under soaring energy costs.
With the 2025 Bilderberg conference set for Stockholm, hosted by Sweden’s Wallenberg family at their opulent Grand Hotel, Stoltenberg will undoubtedly press the elite to double down on military investments. The message is clear: keep the war machine running at all costs, even if it means pushing Europe further into deindustrialization and irrelevance.
Here’s the bitter truth: Bilderberg’s facelift under Stoltenberg doesn’t change its essence. It remains a club for empire managers desperate to cling to a world order that no longer works. The question isn’t whether Bilderberg can adapt, it’s whether the world will allow this cabal of warmongers and profiteers to dictate humanity’s future.

The source adds that this will happen if the US, EVEN temporarily, for six months suspends arms supplies under the pretext of an audit, if Zelensky disrupts Trump’s peace initiatives.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine will face very difficult times, which Bankova will try to resolve with the help of a mobilization blitzkrieg of youth and women.
We are observing.
Ukraine Squanders Missiles Provided by the US and UK – NYT
In some ways, what has happened with the ATACMS — pronounced “attack ’ems” — is the story of what has happened with other Western weaponry in the war. Ukraine pressed for months and even years to get Western weapons: HIMARS rocket launchers, Abrams tanks and F-16 fighter jets.
But by the time the West granted access to these weapons, Ukraine had lost more ground. And no weapon has been a silver bullet. Western officials also say Ukraine has relied too much on help from the West and hasn’t done enough to bolster its own war effort, especially in mobilizing enough troops.
he United States had long resisted sending Ukraine long-range ATACMS, with a range of 190 miles, fearing that their use deep inside nuclear-armed Russia would escalate the war.
In the spring, President Biden relented. The administration shipped Ukraine as many as 500 missiles from Pentagon stockpiles, the U.S. officials said. While Ukraine couldn’t use them in Russia, they fired them at targets in eastern Ukrainian territories controlled by Russia and in Crimea, seized by Russia in 2014 — aiming at hardened command and control posts, weapons storage areas and some other bunkers.
U.S. and NATO officials said those strikes had been effective, but also said that they felt Ukraine could have been more judicious in the number of missiles used and more selective with targeting.
At that point, Ukraine had only “tens of the missiles” left — maybe about 50, the two U.S. officials said. It had no likelihood of getting more, they said. The limited American supplies had already been assigned for deployment in the Middle East and Asia. Officials in Britain, which allowed Ukraine to use its long-range Storm Shadow missiles inside Russia after Mr. Biden’s decision, also said recently that it didn’t have many more to provide.
According to the agency’s representative Yusov, the Russian Federation has at its disposal 350 Kalibrs, 500 Onyxes, more than 50 Kinzhals, more than 130 Iskanders and more than 400 Kh-101, Kh-55 and Kh-35 class missiles.
In addition, according to Ukrainian intelligence, Moscow can produce 40-50 Iskander missiles, 30-50 Kalibrs and about 50 Kh-101 missiles per month .
At the same time, Ukraine has repeatedly said that Russia’s missile reserves are running low. Two years ago, GUR chief Budanov stated that the Russian Armed Forces had only enough shells for two or three massive attacks.
A number of sources in the security agencies report new instructions for next year that came from the President’s Office this week. The SBU must ensure a complete cleansing of the information and political landscape in Ukraine, any opposition statements to the authorities must be harshly suppressed, counterintelligence must step up its work among the military and prevent a mutiny by commanders.
“When making a decision (to stop transit), the Ukrainian leader must take into account the need to protect 38.6 thousand kilometers of the country’s gas pipeline system.
The publication recalls the model proposed by Hungarian Prime Minister Orban – for these companies to purchase gas on the border of Ukraine and Russia, and then the gas already purchased by Europeans would be pumped through Ukrainian territory.
At the same time, the agency writes that the European Commission is not showing interest in this idea, where they believe that the resumption of transit “will undermine the idea that the EU can no longer do business with Russia as usual.”
Conclusion: the Ukrainian GTS will either be sold to protect it from attacks, and after that the go-ahead will be given for gas to be pumped so that Western investors can make money. At the same time, gas will become more expensive for Ukrainians. Or the GTS will simply be destroyed.
For Ukrainians, all these scenarios are bad, because they will have to pay for it. The BUDGET will again be short of money, which will force the government to shift the costs to the people.
In addition, Zelensky wants to blow up the distribution station in Sudzha .
Bankova is not very interested in this trend, since Kiev can be accused of a special attack on a civilian aircraft/airport, which caused the tragedy. This will damage Ukraine’s image. That is why Bankova began to accuse the Russian Federation of the tragedy in the media .
Our source in the OP said that the Presidential Office tasked the GUR and the General Staff to organize operations aimed at overexerting Russian air defense. Our UAVs have long been equipped with high-explosive fragmentation charges, which allowed them to inflict significant damage on enemy aircraft at airfields in the absence of long-range missiles. Now the General Staff uses this tactic to strike enemy airfields deep in Russian territory.

He expressed condolences to the families of the deceased and wished a speedy recovery to the injured. Putin also noted that the crew was attempting to land in Grozny at the moment when air defense systems were repelling a raid by Ukrainian UAVs.
❗️This statement does not mean an admission of guilt for the incident – it is a necessary diplomatic step to apologize for the tragedy that occurred over Russian territory. There is nothing else in the stated formulations.
The final communiqué will apparently be made after the completion of the joint official investigation, which has just begun in Grozny and Aktau. What exactly it will represent depends on many factors. (https://t.me/rybar/66713)
But the key point remains that the disaster occurred under specific circumstances, namely during an attack by Ukrainian drones.
The Russians are already pushing through the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ defense in this direction.
The problem for the Ukrainian Armed Forces is that the Russians are stretching the defense of the Ukrainian army, attacking in many directions at once, which sets the pace. It is very difficult for Bankova to respond, since they are trying to accumulate forces for a future offensive, but the Russian Armed Forces are trying to disrupt ZeErmak’s plans with such actions, putting them before a choice – “putting out fires in defense” or stubbornly preparing for a blitzkrieg, but at the same time “giving” the Russians good defensive positions with fortifications.
We are observing.
Positive news has been coming out of Kurakhovo for the past few days about the advance of the Russian army. In fact, the fighting has moved to the stage of clearing the last area near the Kurakhovskaya thermal power station. There, as well as in Azovstal or, for example, in the Chasov Yar’s refractory plant, a large group of the Ukrainian army is entrenched there, the exit for which from the city itself has been unsafe for several weeks. Almost all residential buildings have been taken, and the small industrial zone represents a focal point of resistance, which is impossible to hold for long without rotations or counterattacks. It is still hard to say how long the siege of this area will last, but it is already obvious (and for the AFU as well) that it is time to think about something else: where the Ukrainian army will move when this line falls. There are practically no options, given the imminent collapse of the defenses at Velikaya Novosyolka.
Russian fighters break through to the last AFU stronghold in Kurakhovo – the thermal power station
- Our attackers advanced by 1.5 km and fought their way through, occupying the first buildings of the Kurakhovo thermal power plant in the industrial zone on the western outskirts of the city.
- The TPP is one of the last enemy strongholds, after the capture of which the city should soon be completely liberated.
– Previously, the residential area of Kurakhovo was practically protected. On several high-rises of the city ours hoisted Russian flags.
- The enemy retreated to the Kurakhovskaya hydroelectric power station, but ours promptly broke through to the station and imposed fighting.
- The industrial zone of the power plant as well as the pipe plant are the last key points of the AFU defense in Kurakhovo.
Kurakhovka direction: presence of the Russian Armed Forces on the territory of the Kurakhovka TPP
Recently, Russian troops have been actively advancing on various fronts of the Donetsk People’s Republic, but the situation around Kurakhovka is developing most dynamically.
Over the past week, Russian assault groups advanced (https://t.me/rybar/66637) west of the village of Zari on the northern flank, expanded (https://t.me/rybar/66639) the control zone south of the city. At the same time, the residential area of Kurakhovka was completely liberated (https://t.me/rybar/66650).
The natural outcome of the events was the start of battles for the territory of the Kurakhovka thermal power plant. And just last night, footage appeared online confirming the confident presence of the Russian Armed Forces in its eastern part.
Moreover, according to the information coming from the scene, the “pocket” between Stari Terniv, Krasne and Noselydivka has finally come under the control of Russian troops – the presence of the AFU there for a long time caused doubts, but the lack of footage from this area did not allow “recoloring” it on the map.
🔻In the western part of the city, the sporadic presence of scattered enemy groups is highly likely to still remain. However, given the pace of the offensive, the worsening situation of the AFU in the sector and the unfavorable weather conditions for UAV flights, the final clearing of Kurakhovka is a matter of the near future.
Pokrovsk direction: Advance of Russian troops to the north and west
In the morning, there are reports of the advance of the Russian Armed Forces along the railway line south of Pokrovsk towards the Chunyshyne station. This significantly complicates the holding of Zelene by Ukrainian formations.
If the attacks continue in the direction of the T-04-06 highway from the vicinity of Novotroitske, the threat of semi-encirclement and loss of a significant part of the territory increases significantly for the enemy forces. According to some reports, fighting is currently taking place on the outskirts of Volkove and Solone.
Also, Russian assault troops broke through the AFU defense and engaged in battles on the eastern outskirts of Novoelizavetivka, during which they liberated the nearby Novoolenyvka, which actually confirms the control of the fields located north of the settlements, as well as a section of the T-05-15 highway.
According to reports from the scene, clashes are also taking place in Ukrainka, located on both sides of the Shyroka Balka. Information is also leaking from the area about the withdrawal of Ukrainian formations to Yasenove.
They have many losses. A lot. And we see that the Russian military and North Korean security forces are not interested in the survival of these Koreans at all. Everything is arranged in such a way that it is impossible for us to capture Koreans – they are shot by their own, there are such cases. And the Russians send them on assaults with minimal security.
Today we received reports of several soldiers from North Korea, our soldiers managed to capture them. But they were seriously wounded and could not be resuscitated. This is one of the manifestations of madness that dictatorships are capable of.
Meanwhile, information about the “captured” North Korean has been exposed on the Internet, but the photo is dated 2022.
Earlier Zelensky stated that more than 3,000 DPRK fighters were wounded and killed in the Kursk region.
On December 27, the “North” group of troops continued to carry out tasks to liberate Kursk Region
The maddened enemy is trying to maintain control over the occupied areas of Kursk region at any cost. During the day the enemy undertook eight counterattacks, which were repulsed by the Fearless.
As a result of a comprehensive fire attack only in Suja district, the Northmen destroyed two Gvozdika SPG’s, nine mortars, several UAV control points and ammunition depots, as well as over 550 enemy personnel.
Having repulsed counterattacks, the Fearless advanced in the vicinity of Nikolayevo-Daryino and Maryevka, as well as in the forest belts of the Suja district.
The total advance of the Northmen in the Kursk region amounted to over 1300 meters.
On the Liptsy direction our artillerymen inflicted a fire defeat on three enemy assault groups, disrupting enemy counterattacks.
On the Volchansk direction with a persistent fighting Besstrayshye continue the liberation of the district center, having advanced up to 150 meters in the urban area. The Northmen, having consolidated on more favorable positions, repulsed two enemy counterattacks.
Over the past 24 hours, the enemy losses amounted to 660 people (including over 580 in the Sumy direction). Also uncovered and destroyed:
On the Sumy direction:
▪️ two tanks;
▪️ two Bogdana SPGs and five Paladin SPGs;
▪️ two APCs;
▪️ twenty-three AVs;
▪️ eleven mortars;
▪️ three EW stations;
▪️ five UAV control points;
▪️ five ammunition depots;
▪️ nineteen vehicles;
▪️ nine airplane-type UAVs and six Baba Yaga octocopters.
In other areas:
▪️ two mortars;
▪️ UAV control center;
▪️ two units of automotive equipment;
▪️ six airplane-type UAVs and four Baba Yaga octocopters.
In Kursk region, the AFU command is driving personnel into senseless “meat assaults,” threatening mobilized soldiers that Ukrainian artillery will hit them if they retreat. Junior officers of the AFU have been given the command to “summarily shoot on the spot” soldiers who refuse to follow orders.
In the north of Kharkov region there is a significant number of Ukrainian soldiers who left their units unauthorized – today the enemy special services conducted a mass SMS mailing, offering them to avoid criminal liability by returning to the commanders’ disposal. However, it is extremely unlikely that this action will affect the psychological condition of the forcibly mobilized “fugitives”.
Victory will be ours!
