Russian Economist Sergey Glazyev Calls Lyndon LaRouche, ‘Very Profound Thinker of Our Time’

July 1, 2022 (EIRNS)—On June 27, Sergey Glazyev, an advisor to President Putin on regional economic integration from 2012 to 2019, and is now the Minister in Charge of Integration and Macroeconomics of the Eurasian Economic Commission, the executive body of the Eurasian Economic Union, issued the following statement on his Telegram account, “Glazyev for Thinking People,” (in Russian) in regard to his late friend Lyndon H. LaRouche (as translated from the Russian): “A quarter of a century ago Lyndon LaRouche, a very profound thinker of our time, contended that a crash of the western financial system, which was built upon financial pyramids and bubbles, a general write-off of debts, and a zeroing-out of derivatives, were inevitable. He called for creating a new financial system, servicing the requirements of expanded reproduction of the real economy.”

Dr. Glazyev, who is also an Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, drafted a eulogy for Mr. LaRouche following his death on Feb. 12, 2019, in the Russian newspaper Zavtra, which EIR translated and published in the Feb. 19, 2019 issue of EIR Daily Alert.
