Anyone following
international news in the latter half of 2016 would have known something about
the disturbance with regard to the selection of a new UN General Secretary. At
the time Bulgarian Kristalina Georgieva
was in the running and yet it was a candidacy born in controversy as Sophia had
switched gears and disavowed a former candidate due to perceived controversies.
The
former candidate Irina Bokova had even received attention from US Evangelicals.
Her former membership in the Communist Party of Bulgaria made her the subject
of red-baiting on a few Christian programmes. This was of course woven in with
US Right-wing and Evangelical hostility to the United Nations and the many
conspiracies they have regarding it.
The
Bulgarian government turned against Bokova and embraced Georgieva but that
didn't end the controversy.
Georgieva
was the new 'official' candidate and yet it was clear her candidacy was also
opposed by elements within the United States. And oddly, Georgieva was also
strongly opposed by Russia's Vladimir Putin who got into something of a tiff
with Angela Merkel over the issue. Georgieva had been part of the European
Commission, the very body implementing sanctions against Moscow.
Elements
within the US opposed her but so did Putin? And then reports came out which
connected her to a very corrupt Bulgarian corporation with ties to organised
crime. Some of these reports have now been retracted and others have completely
disappeared.
Obviously
she didn't get the job and with the ascension of Antonio Guterres as UN
Secretary-General the story had all but faded away. But now it turns out that
Christopher Steele, the source of the controversial Trump Dossier was also being paid by American interests to
investigate Georgieva.
The
rumour is that it was the Bush family that got the ball rolling on this back
during the GOP primaries. But this further bit of data with regard to the UN
and Bulgaria may point to some larger forces within the American Deep State.
What
does this mean? At the very least it points to who is trying to take Trump down.
And if they can't remove him, it's clear they wish to render him impotent and
force him into compliance.
It's
also clear that Deep State elements within the CIA and Pentagon have been
utilising Bulgaria as a staging ground and conduit for Middle Eastern and in
particular Syrian operations. Bulgaria's location and border with Turkey make
it the prime gateway for such a NATO-run operation. While Bulgaria is presently
split (if I may generalise) between pro-West and pro-Moscow factions it's clear
the US backed elements did not want to see Georgieva ascend to the head of the
UN.
This
story is far from over. So far all we really have is a glimpse behind the curtain.
From Manhattan to Washington, Bulgaria to Moscow and even Brussels and
Damascus, schemes are being hatched and plots are being carried out. We may
never know the whole story.
We
have to glean what we can, when we can.
I recall seeing online footage of the Syrian Arab Army documenting a cache of weapons they seized in a warehouse formerly held by rebels, and one of the stickers on the crates indicated Bulgaria as a point of origin. It was also in English. This corroborates your claim regarding Bulgaria as a staging ground for NATO-led operations in Syria.
