Deep state milieu

Deep state milieu
Interest of	ISGP
Informal, clandestine to a greater or lesser degree. Organisations and venues of the deep state, created and governed by deep politicians. Like criminal syndicates, some are ephemeral, some perennial. They have varying procedures and protocols, but are generally characterised by secrecy and frequented by agents of the deep state.

Deep state milieux are environments where deep politicians can meet. They vary in terms of secrecy from the relatively public (such as the CFR) to more secretive groups such as Le Cercle or the Club de Berne. Some have formal meetings and minutes (such as the Bilderberg), others are careful to commit as little as possible to paper - making them hard to track. The examples listed below are international in nature.
