Is Lagarde meant to be explaining something the rest of didn’t already know for some time now?
The author writes:
Striking an ominous tone, Lagarde concluded that the EU had to prepare for “the new reality”.
Congratulations, but about five years or more too late. Just the type of leadership the EU needs to continue to lose whatever influence it thought it might have.

They’ve known it for sometime but now have no choice but to openly admit it, lest they’re accused of being behind the curve.

And in other news, the sky remains blue, politicians still lie, and the domestication of the dog continues unabated.

Looks like she is practising speeches for when she is sacked from the ECB and moves seamlessly over to the IMF.

She’s an awful woman and epitomises everything that is wrong with Western ‘leadership’.

WEF the great reset! Nothing is by coincidence. The rulers of the world are simply enacting their plans.

Yes, but do not think it is quick nor easy, simple nor obvious.. it grinds like the wheel of God, ever so slow but ever so sure.. take note; it is your future.. you are part of it, indeed you bring it about by all the little moves you make (and don’t)….

Christine Lagarde today warned that the world “may be becoming more multipolar”

May be or is? Cos this old news. They don’t seem to be keeping up very well.

there is a risk when we use financial sanctions that are linked to the role of the dollar that over time it could undermine the hegemony of the dollar.”

Mrs Debtfire on top of the game again. Basic economics yellen. People that understand these things have been saying that for quite some time too.

Do you think they just don’t tell us until its impossible for us not to notice these things are happening and they think we are stupid or are they really that stupid that they have only just realised this?

Lagarde says…
“We are witnessing a fragmentation of the global economy into competing blocs, with each bloc trying to pull as much of the rest of the world closer to its respective strategic interests and shared values,”
I find it interesting that she lumps together two concepts as if they were interchangeable ..they’re not! In fact they’re almost opposites: “strategic interests” is a greedy, selfish, unipolar concept whereas “shared values” is a generous, unselfish concept of working together for the common good… ie cooperation vs dominance, and mutuality vs one-sided greed like the US.. the former, the opposite, being closer to the Russia / China concept.. but of course we’re told we must love US hegemony and we must hate all things Russian and Chinese! ..enough already.. we’re sick of your lies; we’re sick of your broken promises; we’re sick of your greed; we’re sick of you evil and your death, your ruin and your hate. Die ASAP please..

Then why didn’t Yellen do anything to stop the Biden admin from stealing from Russia? The consequences seemed rather obvious at the time even to me.

Christine Lagarde is way too earnest. And she is merely promoting her own globalist fantasies.
