On Nov. 22, Helga Zepp-LaRouche delivered a keynote address to the “International Think Tank Forum for the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road 2024” in Guangzhou, China, organized among others by the Guangdong Institute for International Strategies, which is based in Guangzhou. Her 10-minute speech described the leading role that China is playing in the world economy and as a leader in advanced technology, and how some in the West see this as a reason to have confrontation against China. Instead, she appealed to the G20 nations and others to work together to solve the migrant crisis, not by building walls, but by launching massive economic development in the Global South. She ended by saying that it was even more crucial now, given the recent escalation in the war in Ukraine, which threatens nuclear war.
The Institute is connected to the Guangdong University of Foreign Studies (GDUFS), and is an advisor to the Guangdong Provincial Government.
