One of a dozen men whom Józef Retinger consulted when setting up the Bilderberg group

Pietro Quaroni was one of a dozen men whom Józef Retinger consulted when setting up the Bilderberg group.[1]

Opinions

In 1958, Pietro Quaroni responded to a paper by Rudolf Mueller on the Weaknesses of Western Society from December 1957,[2][3] which was also a talking point at the Meeting of the Steering Committee in London on January 10-12, 1958.[4][5]

“We are going through a bad stage in the cold war — all wars have their bad stages. But in all wars when one is going through a bad stage one should concentrate first and foremost on the core of the problem; and the core for us is what is left of Western Europe.

In a war which has a good chance of remaining cold, the internal front is the most important. If the internal condition of our Society is as Dr. Mueller describes it — and I think he is right — it is very difficult to hold out if we cannot manage to cure the sickness at the root.

Having got so far, have we the duty or the power, as a group, to do something to compel our governments, let us say, to get on the path to fundamental reforms, the kind of reforms which could give back to our countries their internal dynamism? For my part, I think it should be done and I would like to do it.

But we must take into account that if we set ourselves on this road, our group cannot avoid getting involved in internal politics, which up to now we have avoided doing.[6][7]
