Book description:

“Take care of Russia,” Boris Yeltsin said as he departed his presidency in August 1999. These words were directed at current Russian president, Vladimir Putin. Yeltsin specifically picked Putin as his predecessor to prevent the takeover of Russia.

So, who was Yeltsin warning against? Newly declassified documents from the Clinton Administration prove that there was a plot to rig the Russian election of 2000. These never-before-seen documents confirm numerous attempts to implement pro-Western policies using the Russian oligarchy headed by Boris Berezovsky.

On the other side were the communists who desired a return to the glory days of the Soviet Union. As one of the largest international hedge fund managers, author Martin Armstrong found himself in the middle of perhaps the greatest espionage, or attempt at a regime change for Russia, in modern history.

The Plot to Seize Russia pulls back the curtain to expose the most extraordinary attempt to seize power in modern history, but with the pen rather than armies. These declassified documents reveal a plot that has altered our thinking about the relations between the United States and Russia. The thirst for power comes seething through every line of these papers that alter our perception of reality, change the course of history, and now threaten us with World War III.

QUESTION: Marty, I just moved to Florida. I bought an old teardown from the ’50s. It’s hard to find contractors here. Everyone is really busy. Any recommendations?

GK

ANSWER: I have been looking for a contractor to add a 3rd floor for me. It’s hard to find someone. If you are in the construction business, tired of state income taxes, and with Governor Ron DeSantis looking to eliminate property taxes on your place of permanent residence, this seems to be the place to move to.

QUESTION: Ukraine is clearly on the verge of losing this stupid territorial war. Zelenskyy is again trying to engulf Europe in total war. He is telling Europe it must attack Russia now. He said conciliatory gestures won’t work.

“You can’t stop Putin with your kisses or flowers.”

You were correct. This is the guy hand picked to start World War III. He cares nothing about his own people and is willing to destroy all of Europe for his personal hatred of Russians. The media will never interview you because they want World War III and put this guy as some champion of freedom.

God help us.

I am leaving Europe taking my family to safety. I see no hope here for Europe.

Thank you for your honesty. After what they did to you, you could have just hid away someplace. I admire your courage.

Uri

ANSWER: The fact that the media will never interview me also gives me the freedom to speak behind the curtain more intensely. If the media actually reported on me truthfully, they would probably suicide me to silence me.

I have been warning about Zelensky. The Minsk Agreement which all of Europe signed with Ukraine and Putin told Zelensky when he came to power how important it was to honor the Minsk Agreement and let the people of the Donbas vote on their freedom from Ukrainians who hate their guts.

Sources continue to say that the Neocons are working on biological weapons for Ukraine to use against Russians while others claim there are also covert operations trying to figure out how to get nukes into Ukraine for this madman Zelensky.

The media lies about everything. They claim Russia invaded “UNPROVOKED” and they claim Russia launched a full scale invasion to take all of Ukraine. They have insisted on Europe send troops to Ukraine and put out the BS that if Ukraine falls, Putin will take all of Europe. Even Hillary was spinning that narrative at the Munich Security Conference.

The head of NATO, Mark Rutte, has come out and lectured these stupid European Leaders who are on the ropes economically and think conquering Russia will keep their failed EU federal government alive. Rutte blasted these morons telling them that Europe is incapable of defending itself without America. 

Emmanuel Macron is now France’s least-popular president in the past 50 years. His approval rating is just 11%. The latest Gallup Poll puts trust in TV mainstream reporters at 13%, Macron is now below the trust in media. The Times referred to Sir Keir Starmer as “the most unpopular prime minister in history“, while Andrew Neil wrote in the Daily Mail that Mr Starmer is “the most unpopular Prime Minister with voters since modern polling began.” In January, Starmer had a negative 47% approval rating.

These EU leaders are so upset that Trump will not fund their intended war against Russia while they grab the assets to regain their global importance and rise above the US, this ungrateful colony, to lead the world in their delusional state of gaining old glories. Perhaps they switched from cocaine to Amanita Muscaria, the psychedelic mushroom some believe the Vikings took before going into battle, which is the origin of the word “berserk” from the Old Norse term “berserkr.” Over time, it evolved to describe someone who is out of control or frenzied, reflecting the wild behavior of these ancient Scandinavians.

A warmonger is typically a leader or individual who advocates for or engages in war, often seen as promoting conflict rather than seeking peaceful solutions. This term carries a negative connotation, suggesting manipulation and exploitation of societal tensions for personal or political gain. Zelensky, Macron, Starmer all fit this profile among others.

The term “warmonger” has roots dating back to the 1580s. It has evolved to describe those who seem eager to escalate conflicts rather than seek peaceful resolutions. The concept of warmongering can also be examined through psychological lenses. Some theories suggest that inner conflicts and fears within individuals can lead to aggressive behaviors, including the promotion of war. This inner turmoil may manifest as a desire to project power or control over others.

There is only one way to create peace. Honor the Minsk Agreement, let the people of the Donbas VOTE who they want to join. Remove all sanctions and embark on free trade. Government will have to be overthrown to achieve that for they have vested so much into this hatred of Russia as a distraction from their failing Marxist-Socialist philosophies. You cannot create social justice materially without violating human rights and sacrificing economic growth and efficiency. This is why EU growth is only about one-third of the US rate.

Trump must realize that the auto industry left Detroit because of TAXES, not cheap labor overseas. The City of Detroit abused their power and chased everyone out and then defaulted on their debt in 1937. All four cities that were raising taxes to redistribute wealth were collapsing in 1933, Detroit, Milwaukee, Boston, and Chicago. Nothing has ever changed and these four cities are incapable of ever learning from the continued mistakes in fiscal management. They bribe people for votes and rob anyone who produces to retain power.

Europe is following the same path.

Zelensky thinks if the EU attacks Russia, Trump Will Have to Come to the Rescue

QUESTION: Marty, you said that the euro would first rise against the dollar and that would lead to a wave of deflation in Europe. Are we close to the reversal in this trend that you said would be the second half of 2026?

FD

ANSWER: The philosophy between the US and Europe when it comes to currency are polar-opposites. The US always wants a weak dollar to sell more widgets overseas, and Europe is still living in the shadow of World War II where the currencies were starting from zero so a rising currency they see as proof of their recovery, yet that leads to deflation and declining trade.

Thus, a strong dollar and weak euro is precisely opposite of the political objectives in both camps. The Plaza Accord was all about forcing the dollar lower in 1985 for trade. They were talking the dollar down but then in 1987 they got together with the Louvre Accord and proclaimed the dollar went down enough. The dollar had already turned down before the Plaza Accord.

When it continued to fall, that is what caused the 1987 Crash because the market suddenly realized that the central bankers could NOT control the currency. These people are NOT capable to controlling the FOREX markets.

We are getting there. It won’t be long now. Just watch the Arrays. Europe is going to impose capital controls. They are trying to eliminate all trade with the USA because Trump is against war with Russia, which they see as necessary to survive. The are looking to ban all software from the USA and they are trying to ban VISA and Mastercard as well. They have been pushing the Sell-America Trade, but this is all going to backfire on them.

Economic growth in the USA for 2024 was about 2.6% compared to 1.1% for the EU. They are dead last in economic growth among the top 5 major economies. They can impose pressure on funds to sell US assets and return to Europe, but we advise some of the largest institutions in Europe and they are NOT buying it. The capitalization of just the NYSE is more than ALL of the European Exchanges combined. The US is still the only place to park huge money. Most of our European institutional clients have hedged the currency risk for now.

What if the economy wasn’t chaotic at all-but followed a hidden code?

The Armstrong Economic Code reveals the powerful cyclical patterns discovered by legendary forecaster Martin A. Armstrong, whose Economic Confidence Model (ECM) has predicted every major boom, bust, and geopolitical shift for more than four decades.

Compiled and expanded by Kerry Lutz, host of the Financial Survival Network and longtime student of Armstrong’s work, this definitive edition connects the dots between history, markets, and the rhythm of human behavior. From the rise and fall of empires to the digital age of algorithmic finance, the Code shows how every crisis-and every recovery-follows a pattern few understand but everyone feels.

Whether you’re an investor, policymaker, or simply trying to navigate a world of chaos, The Armstrong Economic Code gives you the tools to see what’s coming next-and why the future was already written in the past.

Inside you’ll discover:

– The 8.6-year Economic Confidence Model and how it pinpoints global turning points

– How capital flows reveal the next great migration of wealth and power

– Why governments always collapse in predictable cycles of confidence and corruption

– Exclusive post-2020 commentary and charts expanding on The World According to Martin Armstrong

– How to interpret Armstrong’s forecasts to protect and grow your wealth

QUESTION: Marty, when I asked you why we would lose in WWIII, you said the shoe is on the other foot this time. You said that you would do a report on that. Is there any update you can give because these people here in charge are in agreement that war is coming. I flew to Philadelphia in 2011 to see you at that WEC. You laid out the war cycle would turn up in 2014 long before anyone even thought of war. There are many people copying you now pretending it is their research who do not have the contacts behind their charts. I should point out, that they put you on French TV not in America. Your own country will not put you on TV because they are beholding to the Neocons. When the Trump Administration came to write a peace plan, they came to you, not these charlatans. It does seem they are working in some conspiracy for war.

Pierre

ANSWER: Yes, I am working on the 2026 War Report and a number of projects including the long awaited ECM book. China is currently the leading manufacturing country, surpassing the United States in production output. As of 2023, China’s manufacturing value-added reached $4.66 trillion, which is more than the combined output of the next three largest manufacturing economies: the United States, Japan, and Germany. Where the USA accounts for 17.5% of global manufacture, China stands at 27%.

In the war similations that I ran, China will defeat the United States because in an initial confrontation, we can wipe out at least 1/3 of their navy as they do to ours. However, like the US won the WWII became we had the manufacturing based to out produce Germany, that is what I meant that the shoe is on the other foot.

The European Union is collapsing. This is why they are up-in-arms about Visa & Mastercard for they need to control the economy and they are behind closed doors trying to get the UK to rejoin to prop up a failing economic experiment. But they do not care about Europe or the people. This is only about retaining their power. This is no different from NATO. It needs war with Russia just to remain relevant or they money stops and they too lose their jobs.

Here is a yearly chart of the Russian ruble. Despite all the press how Russia is weak, it is collapsing, etc., sorry, the ruble is rising not declining. China will come to the aid of Russia because they know they will be next. With a manufacturing base of this vast potential, the shoe is on the other foot this time. But this is about bureaucrats simply trying to hold on to their power. They do not care about you.
