Dear Mr Lombard, most readers undoubtedly still know you as the editor-in-chief of the magazine "Cato - Magazin für neue Sachlichkeit" (Cato - Magazine for New Objectivity), which you helped to achieve a real cult status in the German media landscape between 2017 and 2021.

It's Not a Revolt, Sire, It's a Secession
At the beginning of July, we witnessed further rioting and looting across France. Although President Macron, with the nerve and arrogance only he is capable of, pretended to find this event surprising, everyone had been expecting it, at least since 2005 and the last large-scale riots in the suburbs.

China and the Prigozhin campaign
How the uprising of Wagner Group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin must be evaluated is a chapter in itself. On the day of the alleged mutiny, events rolled over so quickly that one hardly noticed who did not speak out. While Putin was on the phone with Kazakhstan and Turkey, and the Belarusian Security Council as well as Iran reacted quickly, it was noticeable that one of the Russians' partners remained silent: namely, the People's Republic of China.

Country Report: Germany, June 2023: The “Ampel”-Coalition wants the heat pump at any price - and is causing political instability
The German government is increasingly slipping the reins. For months it has been arguing about its latest project: the "heat turnaround" (“Heizungswende”).

Seen from Warsaw, Seen from Brussels: 'Zeitenwende' in Polish - turning something on its head.
For years, the German government has pursued a policy of rapprochement with Russia, despite the country’s brutal wars in Chechnya, Georgia, Syria, and Ukraine, despite the assassinations for which the Putin regime was responsible.

This is the twelfth instalment of our new interview series called, "Don't just criticise, create!" David Engels speaks with European artists, philosophers, priests, intellectuals, activists, and artisans who have each decided not only to lament 'the decline of the West' but also to endeavour to help reverse it. They have done this by making something new, and also perhaps something beautiful, true, and good.

Tanja Brkić: 'The woke agenda, which hides behind a »benevolent« mask, represents evil. An evil that must be destroyed'
When I look at the current situation in Slovenia in the political space, I can definitely say that cultural Marxism is not just a myth.
