The British representative on the #Bilderberg Steering Committee, Mark Sedwill, Baron Sedwill of Sherborne (Chair of Trustees of the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), Non-Executive Director at Rothschild & Co., Chair of Geopolitical Advisory at Rothschild & Co., and Chair of Rothschild & Co. Saudi Arabia, etc.), has written his analysis of the outcome of the recent US midterm elections and the implications for the UK and its allies, which is worth reading. THE NEXT TWO YEARS OF TRUMP WILL BE TURBULENT THE UK MUST HOLD ITS NERVE "America's voters have passed judgment on Donald Trump's second term. Democrats have swept Congress, flipping seats deep in Trump country, including even a senator and the governor in Texas. The president insists he wasn't on the ballot. His record was. The next two years in Washington will see trench warfare. Congressional committees will investigate Administration conduct and allies such as Elon Musk. Trump himself is safe: the Democrats don’t have the 67 Senate votes for a successful impeachment. His cabinet is not. Pete Hegseth, Robert Kennedy Jr and Howard Lutnick are all in Democrat crosshairs. The Senate will stall his nominees for cabinet posts, embassies and the courts. Shutdowns are likely. Having voted for change with Trump in 2024, and now for change against him, the electorate will see stalemate..." politicshome.com/opinion/art… bilderbergmeetings.org/backg…
America’s voters have passed judgement on Trump’s second term. What does it mean for Britain and our allies? Much of the America First agenda will outlast Trump. We'll still see a shift towards the Pacific, wariness of foreign wars, an economic model built on protectionism and deficits. But some of it won’t, starting with his approach to Russia. For allies, I’d suggest three things. Hold your nerve, reach beyond the Oval Office to the rest of the American system, and become collectively more self-reliant. Mark Carney is right that if middle powers aren’t at the table, they’re on the menu, but he left out three words: “as American allies."

As a reminder, Andrius Kubilius, the European Commissioner for Defence and Space, was the only European Commission representative to attend the 72nd #Bilderberg Meeting, held at the Salamander Hotel in Washington, D.C., from April 9 to 12, 2026 (see below). The European institutions were also represented by the President of the European Investment Bank, Nadia Calviño, and by the President of the Eurogroup and Greek Finance Minister, Kyriakos Pierrakakis. It is also worth noting that Politico is part of the German media group Axel Springer SE, whose Chair and CEO, Mathias Döpfner, is a member of the Steering Committee of the Bilderberg Meetings. KUBILIUS URGES COUNTRIES TO PROTECT EU DEFENSE BUDGET AHEAD OF LEADERS' MEETING "Countries want to trim the Commission's €2 trillion proposal for the bloc's next long-term budget, with cuts affecting competitiveness, defense and foreign aid. European Defense Commissioner Andrius Kubilius urged EU countries to keep defense spending high in the EU's next long-term budget — or face delays in the bloc's military ramp up..." politico.eu/article/kubilius… bilderbergmeetings.org/backg… bilderbergmeetings.org/meeti… Photos: @fredericodc27 , @FreeManReporter

O futuro emprego?
FRANCFORT - DAVOS, VOL DIRECT OU AVEC ESCALE À PARIS? Pour rappel, la présidente de la BCE, Christine Lagarde, a participé pour la première fois à une Conférence de #Bilderberg en 2009, alors qu’elle était ministre de l’Économie en France. Par la suite, elle a assisté à quatre réunions durant son mandat de directrice générale du FMI. Comme nous l’avons déjà évoqué, une rumeur circule en Suisse depuis un an, suggérant qu’elle pourrait prendre la présidence du Forum économique mondial (WEF) une fois qu’elle aura quitté Francfort. La date de son départ est désormais connue : le 7 février 2027. Il ne faudra donc attendre que quelques mois pour savoir si cette information se confirme. La 57e réunion annuelle du Forum économique mondial (WEF) se tiendra à Davos-Klosters du 18 au 22 janvier 2027. Y participera-t-elle une dernière fois dans ses fonctions actuelles ? Rappelons que Klaus Schwab, fondateur et ancien président du Forum économique mondial (WEF), a été membre du comité directeur des Conférences de Bilderberg. Børge Brende, ancien président du WEF, a représenté la Norvège au sein de ce Comité avant d’en démissionner plus tôt cette année, à la suite de son implication dans l’affaire Epstein. André Hoffmann, actuel coprésident du WEF, siège également au sein de ce même Comité en tant que représentant suisse. L’autre coprésident du WEF est Larry Fink, PDG de BlackRock. Bien que Larry Fink n’ait jamais participé lui-même à une Conférence de Bilderberg, il dispose d’un réseau bien établi : Thomas E. Donilon — vice-président de BlackRock et président du BlackRock Investment Institute (le centre de réflexion économique et stratégique de l’entreprise) — est un ancien membre du Comité directeur de Bilderberg. Un autre vice-président de BlackRock, Philipp Hildebrand, a quant à lui participé à la Conférence de 2015. teapaw.org/GFBombassei/status/209… bilderbergmeetings.org/backg… weforum.org/about/leadership… ir.blackrock.com/governance/… blackrock.com/corporate/abou… blackrock.com/corporate/abou… letemps.ch/economie/christin… Ci-dessous, Christine Lagarde lors de la Conférence de Bilderberg de 2016 à Dresde.

O sucessor?
Klaas H.W. Knot, former president of the Dutch central bank (and a potential candidate to succeed Christine Lagarde as head of the ECB), has authored an article titled "Principled Pragmatism: Fourteen Years on the European Central Bank’s Governing Council." It appears in the latest Policy Brief from the Peterson Institute for International Economics (PIIE)—where he serves as a member of the senior research staff—and is well worth a read. For the record, Klaas H.W. Knot attended four #Bilderberg Conferences between 2013 and 2018. As stated on its website: "The Peterson Institute for International Economics (PIIE) is an independent nonprofit, nonpartisan research organization dedicated to strengthening prosperity and human welfare in the global economy through expert analysis and practical policy solutions." The institute was founded in November 1981 as the Institute for International Economics (IIE). It was established by economist C. Fred Bergsten (who served as its founding director until 2012) with support from the German Marshall Fund. Peter G. Peterson—a former U.S. Secretary of Commerce, co-founder of Blackstone, and prominent philanthropist—served as the long-time Chairman of the Board. In 2006, the organization was officially renamed the Peter G. Peterson Institute for International Economics in his honor. For the record, C. Fred Bergsten participated in five Bilderberg Conferences between 1972 and 2002, and Peter G. Peterson took part in the 1978 Meeting. Members of the PIEE Board of Directors include: - Roger W. Ferguson, Jr., who took part in the 2016, 2017, and 2018 Bilderberg Conferences. - Evan G. Greenberg, who participated in the 2014 and 2017 Meetings. - Merit E. Janow, who participated in the 2004 Meeting. - Peter R. Orszag, who participated in the 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2016 Meetings. - Robert B. Zoellick (Executive Committee member), who is a former member of the Bilderberg Conferences Steering Committee. Among the Institute’s Honorary Directors is former ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet, who is also a former member of the Bilderberg Conferences Steering Committee. French economist Olivier Blanchard participated in the 2016 Bilderberg Conference as a Fred Bergsten Senior Fellow at the Peterson Institute. piie.com/publications/policy… piie.com/about/board-directo… bilderbergmeetings.org

#BILDERBERG AUTUMN MEETING 2026 The #Bilderberg Steering Committee meets as a collegial body twice a year. In the spring, during the Bilderberg Meetings, and in the autumn, at a meeting known as the Steering Committee Meeting, or, more simply, the ‘Autumn Meeting’. The decision to create this type of meeting was taken by the Group in Geneva on 17 March 1957. On that occasion, it was agreed that ‘Steering Committee meetings could provide an opportunity for a fuller exchange of views and more in-depth study of various problems’. It was therefore decided that ‘a meeting of the Steering Committee would be held in the interval between each conference, to allow an in-depth discussion of an important problem. Such a Steering Committee meeting could last a day and a half, with half a day reserved for administrative matters, such as preparation for the next conference, and one day devoted to the debate itself. In addition to the members of the Steering Committee, people with special expertise in the issues on the agenda could be invited to attend’. It is October 6, 2026, and the 2026 Autumn Meeting of the Bilderberg Steering Committee could take place at any moment—this week or in the weeks to follow—somewhere in Europe or North America... amidst general indifference. While Bilderberg Conferences are notably discreet, the Steering Committee’s Autumn Meetings are far more so. In twenty years, we have managed to learn where and when the meeting would take place in advance on only one occasion. That was in 2012, in Rome. It took place at the Hôtel de Russie, on November 15 and 16. The evening before, the Italian representative on the Steering Committee, Franco Bernabè, invited the participants to a gala dinner at the Capitol Museums, where the 1957 Treaty of Rome was signed. The guest of honour for the evening was Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti (a Bilderberg member since 1983). For the occasion, there were just two of us covering the event. The other was Italian journalist Giulia Innocenzi, from La7 TV's ‘Servizio Pubblico’. So these are exclusive images, also because there aren't really any other images of other Bilderberg ‘Autumn Meetings’.

BILDERBERG STEERING COMMITTEE'S AUTUMN MEETING 1995 On October 6, 1995—exactly 31 years ago— the then-U.S. President Bill Clinton attended the Autumn Meeting of the Bilderberg Steering Committee at the Four Seasons in Washington, D.C. in his official capacity. He had previously attended the 1991 Bilderberg Conference in Baden-Baden while serving as Governor of Arkansas. He participated at the invitation of his friend Vernon E. Jordan Jr., then a partner at the law firm Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld and a member of the Bilderberg Steering Committee. govinfo.gov/content/pkg/WCPD… publicintelligence.net/1991-… Despite her public denials, Hillary Rodham Clinton attended the 1997 #Bilderberg Conference, in Atlanta, when she was First Lady of the United States, giving a speech that was apparently memorable. In it, she clearly supported the immediate expansion of NATO to include the Baltic states and criticized her husband Bill Clinton's decision to renew China's trade privileges, known as the "Most Favored Nation" (MFN) clause. On this point, she reportedly told her staff that "engagement to Bill does not mean endorsement of all his policies." Two men in the White House oversaw FLOTUS's participation in the Meeting: David C. Leavy and Antony J. Blinken. The first would later become COO of CNN Worldwide, and the second U.S. Secretary of State. clinton.presidentiallibrarie…
