Meyer says Churchill wanted an “authoritative, all-powerful world order” and a “world super government.”

The host opens warmly and introduces Thomas Meyer, an author, writer, publisher, and founder of Perseus Publishing in Arlesheim, Switzerland. He also says he first came across Meyer's work through Terry Boardman. The discussion begins with a 14 May 1947 speech about an authoritative, all-powerful world order. From there it moves toward the European Union and the idea that it belongs to a larger project of world government. Meyer suggests that some Europeans are naive about Churchill and about his relationship to middle Europe. The conversation does not stay on one country for long. It turns toward Russia, public discourse, and the habit of dividing the world into neat camps of good and bad. The host asks whether Putin is simply opposed to the West or whether he is playing a part inside a wider situation. Meyer answers by widening the historical lens again. He points to the First World War and says British elites managed it. He also refers to historical work that, in his view, shows how the strings were pulled. The host brings in Carol Quigley and Anthony Sutton as part of that thread. The argument then returns to the present. Ukraine, Macron, and the endlessly extending crisis are all folded into the same line of thought. Meyer suggests that the West has set Russia up as an enemy in a way that echoes earlier moments in European history. The interview keeps its deliberate pace. Questions arrive softly, and the host often reflects back what he has heard before pushing the line of inquiry a little farther. That gives Meyer room to move from the Ukraine crisis to a larger account of power and historical design. The closing turns practical. The host thanks Meyer, says listeners will find links to his website, books, and courses, and mentions support through Substack, Locals, Subscribestar, and YouTube membership.
