The Head of the European Central Bank Christine Lagarde, has announced the implementation of the digital Euro, which will have devastating economic and social consequences.


According to Peter Koenig:


“The universal drive towards central bank digital currencies, emanates most likely from the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), the Central Bank of all central banks, controlling at least 90% of central banks around the globe, and the BIS, itself, being controlled by the Rothschild family.


As we see, all is in best-intended private hands, perfectly aligned with the fraudulently established 1913 Federal Reserve Act – that has allowed the US Federal Reserve –which is controlled by a handful of Wall Street Banks– to create a US dollar hegemony around the world”.

Can We Trust Christine Lagarde? 


The Head of the European Central Bank Christine Lagarde has a criminal record in France.




“International Monetary Fund chief Christine Lagarde has been convicted [December 2016] over her role in a controversial €400m (£355m) payment to a businessman.



French judges found Ms Lagarde guilty of negligence for failing to challenge the state arbitration payout to the friend of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy [Bernard Tapie].


The 60-year-old, following a week-long trial in Paris, was not given any sentence and will not be punished.


 The Court of Justice of the Republic, a special tribunal for ministers, could have given Ms Lagarde up to one-year in prison and a €13,000 fine. (The Independent, December 19, 2016, emphasis added)

Unusual in France? Lagarde was found “guilty” without the enforcement of a one year jail term ordered by the Court:  She was accused of “negligence” rather than “complicity”  in a multimillion euro fraud.


The French judges took the decision to withhold a one year prison sentence pertaining to the accused pursuant to a decision of the IMF Executive Board which is routinely chaired by the accused.
