The Suicide of Europe by Prince Michel Sturdza Overview

Wanderer's Wavelength

"The Suicide of Europe" is a historical account by Prince Michel Sturdza, a Rumanian diplomat, which argues that World War II was a planned event orchestrated by a shadowy group of individuals with the goal of establishing communist control over Europe. The book chronicles Sturdza's own experiences, his encounters with key historical figures, and his analysis of events leading up to and during the war. He contends that the Franco-Soviet alliance and the subsequent pact between Germany and the Soviet Union, rather than serving as a means to deter aggression, were actually intended to create the conditions for the war. He also claims that the war's conclusion was predetermined, with the allies handing over Eastern Europe to the Soviets as part of a grand conspiracy. The book explores the activities of the Legionary Movement, a Romanian nationalist organization that opposed the Soviet threat, and accuses various political leaders and diplomats of betraying their countries through pro-Soviet policies. Sturdza's work serves as a cautionary tale against the dangers of international communism, highlighting the alleged manipulation of events by a hidden power for its own agenda.
