Keynoted by Lyndon LaRouche and Helga Zepp-LaRouche, the conference in Rüsselsheim, Germany, was attended by about 350 people from 25 nations.
The Next Steps: Only Sovereign Nations Can Rebuild the Bankrupt Economy
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
As the planet faces a plunge into the worst civilizational crisis since the 14th-Century New Dark Age, European nations have been stripped of their sovereignty, LaRouche said.

Without the United States’ cooperation, there will be no recovery of this planet.”
The Role of Europe in the Coming Renaissance
by Helga Zepp-LaRouche
