Enghliting to humanity as in all his life, Dr Kissinger intervened in this World War against the Coronavirus by presenting his valuable thoughts in a Washington Post's article recently. While identifiying our times as similar with the end of WWII in 1944, he stressed the need to avoid any disaggrement about the past and work for the near future which is expected to be totally different from what we were used until now in regard of people's governance.
The ultimate test will be to limit and overcome the virus attack scientifically while US citizens retain their trust to US President. With a new Marshall Plan and the Manchattan Project needed globally, he identified three areas where US leadership should focus on. A global resistance in the Coronavirus, the healment of this new global economic crisis and the retainemnet of the principles that underlie a liberal global order.
Conclusively, in his opinion the contradiction of the tendency for fortified states against the need for global trade and freedom of movement for people the day after Corona World War will define our future. Democracies around World should defend enghliting values while the collusion between power and legality should be retained until the pandemia is over. To the contrary, leaders around the World should handle this crisis while building up a future with the threat of their failure to flare up our old World.
Dr. Henry Kissinger had always deep thoughts that not too many could reach in the Old World. Though old enough he sends strong messages to the leaders of the present World and US President for the need to disregard who brought us to this point, set aside for the future the right mixture of power and legality for people's governance and avoid the clash between fortified states, free trade and movement of people. Otherwise, World War III may occur with troops making this World a hell.
Kissinger's last thoughts resemble more with a looser's plea for peace and a threating request for a fair share of power in the future and the post of World War III order. In other words the past wants to be present in the future no matter its sins. It is true that "Old World" has still dedicated troops, regimes of elites who govern nations. If his plea for existence the day after Coronavirus will not be satisfied someone could discern in Kissinger's words a suicide tendency of "Old World".
In War, the winner set the rules and the looser signs his obeyance hoping his punishemnet to be lenient. In our post modern era, 5G will give tremendous capabilities to humanity and the looser still does not accept his defeat. This is very sad like the useless contuinity of War by Hitler in 1945 when it only created more catastrophy to humanity and Germany.
"The Old", the looser should set aside, wave its white flag and let the winner define our future. If this future contains fortified states or a strong network of states with common values this will be seen soon. There are communities like Russia or China that cannnot exist with other than authoritarian regimes. The fact that are called democracies or communism sometimes is indifferent. These nations can choose if they will go on isolated as they did for centuries before Cold War was ended or will join the bright future of humanity. What is for certain it is that the free illicit movenment of goods and people under the supervision of transnational organised crime cannot go on as it did the last two centuries.
In other words either the looser should withdraw and surrender or the winner should conquer its land, destroy its network and reveal its crime. This is the eternal way War has been given and now it cannot be changed distinguable Dr. Henry Kissinger.
As Greek ancient mothers were telling to their Spartan sons before going to war: "Ή ΤΑΝ Ή ΕΠΙ ΤΑΣ" meaning to come back from the War "Either winner or dead". Sorry Sir, this time you cannot loose and win in the same time. Business is not as usual. The Coronavirus will not leave until the end of this duel when only one will be alive. The freedom of mind.
