This is how power works behind closed doors

As we made clear in the first part of our series introducing Gerald Knaus, the Soros-lobbyist orchestrating anti-Hungarian campaigns and founder of the European Stability Initiative (ESI), has been receiving through his foundation, serious sums of money regularly. Thereby he publicly and as a lobbyist represents the Open Society Foundation. In the second part of this series we will reveal the operation of the background lobby, which is enormously helped by Knaus and his circle’s evident influence in every significant European institution.

Meanwhile, ESI insiders say he emphasizes lobbying not just in Brussels, but in Berlin and Paris. It cannot go unsaid that the network’s Hungarian leaders keep in touch with him. We confirmed this in their social media interactions, and we are now convinced that Knaus is tied to the NGO world’s vital individual, with whom he is friends with on social media.
