Pangea - For a World without Wars

Ninety-seventh episode of Pangea Grandangolo, an international press review for Byoblu TV channel, aired on 05/05/2023. Excerpts from the interview done by Jean Toschi Marazzani Visconti: “In the Soviet Union classical music was strongly sponsored. I received a very high quality education in a music school; I studied at the Russian Piano School. Despite being the daughter of simple proletarian parents, I was able to study for free with the best teachers. Then the dissolution of the Soviet Union came upon us like a boulder. You are in a country that is no longer what you knew, among people who do not care about what you do. The only way was to get out of that place.” “We considered ourselves lucky, my future husband and I, to win the Piano Competition in the United States in 1991. We were elated, we were more American than most Americans. And we forgot about our native country. We believed every word that was said on television. This terrible disconnect between what you see and what you know has been felt not only by us since 2014. I started translating some videos about what was happening in Ukraine and posted them on Twitter. I was told to mind my own business, to go to the piano and not talk. However, I am very stubborn. Then came the time when they canceled my concert in Toronto, Canada. They accused me of badmouthing Stepan Bandera.” Later, in 2015, they invited me to give a concert in Donetsk. There was a sea of people, many people came out, risking their lives. Then I went to Mariupol when they were celebrating May 9, the day of victory over Nazi Germany. It was the first time in many years that people celebrated it openly. It was very moving. The boys took the piano from the cafeteria, put it on the street, and I played. I also played in front of the Ukrainian embassy in Moscow to remember the Odessa massacre.” “Of course I made many enemies in the West by doing these concerts, but I reunited with my people. I am an American citizen and now also a Russian citizen, because I was given citizenship of the Donetsk People’s Republic and I could have Russian citizenship. I don’t deny that I don’t want to be considered Ukrainian or American, because there is another Ukraine, there is another America. There is also another Europe. In all of these I identify myself. I see my future where there is music. Music, culture is what unites us. This goes directly to the heart of the Russian, the Italian, the Chinese or the Japanese, the Belgian or the Brazilian. It is a universal language. I believe that all wars will eventually end. People will wake up from the nightmare. And there will be a time of reconstruction, a time of creation. I think it will come, I hope to see this, that at least our children will see this.” *** Help us to make the episodes of Pangea.

Pangea's Grandangolo Inside the News episode for Byoblu TV channel aired on 05/12/2022. Interview with Olga Zinoviev: "The entire West at war against Russia". In this episode of Grandangolo Inside the News we report the full interview (of which we anticipated an extract in Grandangolo 72), carried out in Moscow by Jean Toschi Marazzani Visconti, with Olga Zinoviev, head of the international research and training center Zinoviev at the Moscow State University, co-president of the Zinoviev Club. To the question “Russia is at war. How do you see the situation? ", Olga Zinoviev replies: "It is not Russia at war, but the entire West is at war against Russia. It was not our decision to make the life of the Ukrainian people so complicated. It is certainly a decision of the West to destroy everything that determines our future. The western countries and first of all England, the United States and their satellites, do not stand that we have our own life, are uncomfortable even by our very existence, both when there was the Soviet Union, both today that it is Russia. The Soviet Union was destroyed in the early nineties. And they thought they could adopt the same recipe to destroy the life of other countries: Syria, Lebanon and so on. Even towards the Yugoslav Federation they adopted the same method. For this they bombed the Yugoslav Federation, an independent country. Alexander told me it was the beginning of a plan to destroy Russia. And he was right." To the question of what you think of the position taken by the European Union, Olga Zinoviev replies: "I'm afraid for Europe, because it gradually loses its independence already compromised from the beginning by the European Union project which was actually the project of United States to exercise their hegemony on Europe". Next, she reiterates the concept: “The multipolar world represents our world view. We have so many populations, we have so many languages. Why are we forced to think in English, why are we forced to obey to what Washington wants from us, as if we were forced with weapons? We have different religions, different cultures, enormously interesting cultures". *** Help us to make the episodes of Pangea.

In this special Pangea's Grandangolo episode Jean Marazzani Visconti interviews Vladimir Kozin, a Russian expert of the Political-Military Studies Center. The interview was done for the TV channel Byoblu, that aired on 15/11/2022, in the Russia Today (RT) headquarters in Moscow, of which we published an extract in episode 71 of Grandangolo. Vladimir Kozin denounces the fact that the United States, after tearing the INF Treaty, are deploying in Europe close to Russia nuclear missiles with an intermediate radius, in addition to the new B61-12 nuclear bombs. Regarding these, he declares: “The B61-12 are already sent to Europe, contrary to what was announced by politician who will arrive in December. We have information that they have already arrived, because a specific plane such as the US fighter F-35A has already been delivered to NATO member countries. Also to Finland, which has not yet become a member of NATO in all respects but is waiting for ratification. Finland asked 65 F-35 capable of using nuclear weapons. And recently voices have come from Helsinki who would like to have US nuclear weapons on Finnish soil, as Germany has them, as Belgium has them, as Holland and Italy and Turkey have them. So Europe is becoming a nuclear powder keg”. Vladimir Kozin defines the current situation "much worse than it was during the Cold War, much more lethal and more dangerous". He therefore feels that "if our territory is attacked with nuclear weapons or weapons of mass destruction, such as chemical or biological weapons, bacteriological and toxic, as well as nuclear, we will reply". When asked if Russia will hit the US nuclear bases in Europe, he replies: “Yes, this is certain. If we are attacked". Kozin defines all this "madness". He warns that, if a nuclear war comes, "there will be no winners or won, everyone will lose". *** Help us to make the episodes of Pangea.

Fifty-third episode of Pangea Grandangolo, an international press review for Byoblu TV channel, aired on 24/06/2022. Geopolitical flat-earthism of Italy Italy, while asking Washington to be admitted to Five Eyes, the most powerful world spionistic alliance with the US driving, boycott the International Economic Forum of St. Petersburg at the expense of its national interests. Two events - one to the West and one in the East - are emblematic of the changes in the international framework: in Washington the mission of the Copasir (Parliamentary Committee for the Security of the Republic); In St. Petersburg the international economic forum promoted by Russia, of which the journalist Daria Platonova, an expert in geopolitics, reports to us. In the press conference in Washington, the president of Copasir, Adolfo Urso, said that neither of the four relationships of the services examined by Copasir has to do with the Corriere della Sera dossier on the "Putinians of Italy". The deputy director of Corriere Fiorenza Sarzanini must therefore explain whether the dossier invented it or he drafted it on the basis of "information" received underlying from the secret services. As a further contribution to the "Security of the Republic", the president of Copasir urged Italy's admission to the Five Eyes, the most powerful world spionistic alliance between the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Australia and New Zealand, because Italy is "Land of frontier and zipper with respect to the Russian, Chinese projection, but also to the Islamic threat and the inherent issues I could say the survival of Africa". At the same time, Italy boycotted the International Economic Forum of St. Petersburg, where, with a large participation of Africa, themes of primary importance have been addressed. As the New York Times also documents, the West's move to block oil and gas imports from Russia is a boomerang especially for Europe, since China and India acquire them at discounted prices by opening new outlets to the East. From a new large international market that is forming with a view to a multipolar world, Italy compromises its own national interests. All this is hidden by our political-media mainstream, which makes us believe that the whole world has condemned and isolated Russia, while-as documents the important Wilson Center of Washington-"the countries that have sanctioned Russia for the Ukraine represent only 16% of the world population ". *** Help us to make the episodes of Pangea.

In this special Pangea's Grandangolo episode Jean Marazzani Visconti discusses the massacre of Medak Pocket and the dissolution of Yugoslavia. There is a parallel between the Donbass in Ukraine and the Krajine Serbe in the Yugoslav Federation. Krajina as Ukraine means border. The Krajine Serbe were regions at the foot of Croatia that the western powers had included in Croatia as part of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and the Yugoslav socialist federation later. When Croatia had detached from the Federation in 1990, the Krajine had formed Krajina's Republika Serba, they would have agreed to be part of Croatia, but only in the context of a confederation of the Yugoslave republics. This is their story. *** Help us to make the episodes of Pangea. Only your donations support us, we have no financing from parties or organizations.
