Thai Opposition Leader Paid Lobbyists to Arrange Meeting with USAID, NED
US-backed billionaire opposition leader Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit visited the US in mid-2019 before Thailand’s general elections.
He hired APCO Worldwide - a US-based lobbying firm - to arrange his trip which included meetings with several representatives from US Congress, the US State Department, USAID, and most disturbingly - Freedom House - a subsidiary of the National Endowment for Democracy (NED).
The NED and Freedom House are chaired by pro-war, pro-regime change representatives of some of the largest and most influential corporate-financier interests in the West and fund opposition groups in pursuit of regime change around the globe.
From late 2019 to the time of this video being published (April 2021) - the US government has funded and supported the core organizations leading anti-government protests aimed at overthrowing the current government and placing Thanathorn into power.
The meeting was clearly more than a mere coincidence. Will the Thai government investigate Thanathorn’s 2019 trip - especially now that the US NED’s role behind violent protests initially led by Thanathorn himself is clearly understood?
These daily videos (Monday to Friday) are published first for Platinum Sponsors and above first, then made public later on in the week. Thank you for your support and making this work possible!
