History in the Making: BRICS Against IMEC?

Whatever your perspective on history is, there is no doubt that the world has recently entered a series of events that are going to decisively shape our common future, maybe even our survival. We will all have choices to make, and if we are not already doing so, each of us may soon be called upon to take action in shaping it.

Earlier this month, an independent journalist was invited, apparently by accident, to attend a 'very private' joint Israeli/Greek goverment & corporate showcase event in Athens, Greece, on the contentious subject of IMEC - the India–Middle-East–Europe Economic Corridor, a rival trade route to China's Belt & Road Initiative. The journalist took advantage of his unexpected official press status to record the entire presentation, and presents to us his critique of the plans afoot.

A 70m video will be followed by an open discussion, with the usual call for good behaviour and mutual respect by all parties. TRIGGER WARNING: the views of the journalist are very frank and outspoken. This may cause some people distress, so please be warned in advance if you feel yourself to be sensitive to such stimuli.
