Late-breaking additions to speakers list for Dec. 7-8 international Schiller Institute online conference

In light of the headlong escalations of threat and mayhem unleashed by Western elites against Russia, Syria, and the BRICS countries in general, the International Schiller Institute online conference December 7-8 takes on heightened importance by the hour.

The Schiller Institute has announced the following names just added or confirmed for the outstanding roster of speakers at this historic deliberation. In the first panel, 9:00-12:00 Eastern time U.S., new or confirmed speakers include Prof. Zhang Weiwei (China), Professor of International Relations, Fudan University, China; Scott Ritter (U.S.), former UN Weapons Inspector in Iraq; Col. (ret.) Larry Wilkerson, (U.S.), former chief of staff to the U.S. Secretary of State; and Amb. Hossein Mousavian (Iran), former ambassador from Iran to Germany. H.E. Naledi Pandor (South Africa), former Minister of International Relations and Cooperation, South Africa, will deliver her major address, “How Should the South Respond”, as the second speaker in Sunday morning’s panel, rather than the Saturday morning panel, due to scheduling constraints.

In the second panel, the speakers addressing the farm crisis have been expanded to include Dr. Bedabrata Pain (India), film director, former NASA senior research scientist, “Déjà vu, Where Past Meets the Future”; Joe Maxwell (U.S.), Co-founder of Farm Action, former Lt. Governor of Missouri; Mike Callicrate (U.S.), Owner of Ranch Foods Direct & Callicrate Cattle Co; joining previously-announced Robert Baker (U.S.), Schiller Institute Agriculture Commission.

Note the full list of speakers list, plus titles and times of the four panels, is posted below. The first panel, beginning with Helga Zepp-LaRouche, also includes two former heads of state.

Many other notable speakers will address the worldwide economic development progress and potential, as the basis for peace, and a cultural renaissance through a dialogue of cultures.

All panels will be livestreamed via YouTube with the following links: English, Spanish, and there will also be interpretation in German and French.
