Marco Rubio Munich Speech: Globalist Liberal Democracy is Dead

 

A new world order is emerging. Liberal democracy is coming to an end in its current form. The assumption that the whole world would confirm to the ideology of Western liberal globalism, and give up national sovereignty, border control, traditional values and faith in God, did not work.

At the 2026 Munich Security Conference,  Secretary of State, Marco Rubio eloquently pointed out that universal liberal democracy was a dangerous delusion that ignored human nature and historical lessons.

Globalist Liberal Democracy is Dead: He said that free trade globalist policies have led to deindustrialization and loss of sovereignty in the West, while critical supply chains were outsourced to adversaries. In parallel, the past years the naïve green energy policies have weakened Western economies while rivals exploit fossil fuels like never before as leverage.

In addition, uncontrolled mass migration is a threat to societal cohesion and cultural continuity, therefore border control is an act of sovereignty. Rubio called for a revitalized alliance between the U.S. and Europe centred on national sovereignty, defense capability and pride in the Christian faith, its culture and heritage.

This writes Hanne Nabintu Herland, historian of religions, bestselling author, and columnist at World Net Daily, WND, USA’s largest conservative news network.

Globalist Liberal Democracy is Dead: The doctrine of liberal democracy assumed that the 1989 fall of the Berlin wall and collapse of the USSR would produce “the end of history,” as Francis Fukyama famously predicted. This is still the narrative of the current European politicians.

Europe dreamed of a Marxist world where war was no more; it prepared for everlasting utopian peace, while gradually handing over its sovereignty to the emerging globalist billionaire elite and international institutions.

Yet, liberal democracy soured into an ideological slavery in which classical Western freedoms such as tolerance, free speech and national sovereignty were strangled. The rise of nihilist totalitarianism, socialist thought control, a bloated bureaucracy and economic stagnation has fuelled the population to revolt against its leaders. They no longer act in accordance with national interests, but serve a globalist agenda.

Globalist Liberal Democracy is Dead:  America’s neo-con vision in the Post-Cold War era was to ensure that no rival superpower was allowed to emerge in Europe or elsewhere. The globalist aim was a world dominated by one superpower. The leaked neo-con Pentagon Plan stated that a major goal was to weaken Europe.

The document rejected a collective approach as an equal among allies, and defined a unipolar leadership by the U.S. at the expense of the independence of Europe and other allies. The need to weaken Germany was specifically mentioned.

As we speak, Europe is being bought in record speed by the large American funds such as Blackrock, Vanguard and others. They profit from printing dollars out of thin air and investing in real assets outside the U.S. to avoid domestic inflation, as I pointed out in a WND commentary in 2022.

Yet, still European socialist leaders seem bent on retaining their allegiance to the axis of globalist masters that so successfully have subdued Europe, rather than following the current U.S. administration’s defence of national interests, societal cohesion and cultural pride. While the Trump administration embarks on a path to return strength and national sovereignty to Western nations, European socialists unbelievably still refuse to let go of the globalist exploitation of their own continent. It must be some sort of Stockholm-syndrome.

Globalism has since the late 1980s impoverished the lower and middle classes in the West while wealth transfer to the rising billionaire class has been unprecedented. Globalism shifted loyalties. Western capital owners now partnered with China for their own personal benefit, leaving behind national interests. Labour was outsourced to low-cost nations, but the gain ended up in tax havens.

The cunning move to register in tax havens made sure there was no need to give back to regular Western workers who lost opportunities. Since then, billionaires’ prosperity has soared. Globalism and liberal democracy has become synonymous with the betrayal of national interests. The wealth gap is at the highest since the late 1930s, Ray Dalio points out.

Globalist Liberal Democracy is Dead: The current domestic revolt across the West is a testament to the failed state of Western atheist, hedonist, selfish, divisive, borderless liberal democracy. Liberal democracy has also caused an international revolt against the West so intense that it has accelerated the shift towards a multipolar world. The clash of civilizations, so well explained by Samuel Huntington, has produced a world where the Rest simply do not want to bow to the liberal, hedonist West and its controlling billionaire elite.

In Munich, Secretary Rubio outlined the path America and Europe should jointly take in order to strengthen the Western hemisphere in an increasingly multipolar world: Part with the destructive globalist policies that do not reflect the interests of the population; become self-reliant, reindustrialize, be proud of our traditional heritage and defend the West.
