Ellenbogen Chairman- Global Panel World-wide; President, The Prague Society Hon. Oskars Kastens, MP Minister for Social Integration (2006-2009), Latvia The Prague Society was established in June 1999 by a diverse group from the Robert S. Seasonwein Assistant Chief Counsel, TSA, Department of Homeland Security Czech Republic, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Gen. Dieter Stöckmann (ret.) New Zealand. The idea for the Society developed as its founders realized that the Dep. Supreme Allied Commander Europe, SHAPE (2001-2002), Germany Martin Walker insights they had gained individually and collectively for nearly a quarter of a Editor-in-Chief Emeritus, United Press International (UPI), UK century should be extended on a wider scale.

The former Minister of Trade countries of the region share with many contemporary societies a disappointment Charles C. Adams, Jr., Esq. Managing Partner, Hogan & Hartson, Geneva, Switzerland with the state of public life. The ambitions of the days following the collapse of Hon. Richard L. Brodsky communism have faded. Suspicion of innovation and of foreign influence is Chairman, Committee on Corporations, Authorities and Commissions, New York State Legislature, USA endemic. There is a reluctance to share information and to work towards a common Hon. Jennifer Brunner goal. Private gain dominates public interest. Secretary of State, State of Ohio General Wesley K. Clark The Society will encourage individuals to take a broader perspective through Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR), (1997-2000) interactions that can lead to a renewed commitment to civic responsibilities.

  • Prince Radu of Romania Statement in Open Court
    IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUSTICE CLAIM NO. HQ05X00542 QUEEN’S BENCH DIVISION B E T W E E N PRINCE RADU OF HOHENZOLLERN Claimant - and – (1) MARCO HOUSTON (2) SENA-JULIA PUBLICATUS LIMITED Defendants ___________________________________________________ STATEMENT IN OPEN COURT ___________________________________________________ Counsel for the Claimant (James Price QC) My Lord, I appear on behalf of the Claimant, Prince Radu of Romania. My friend appears on behalf of the Defendants. The First Defendant, Marco Houston, is the editor of Royalty Monthly magazine, and he is also a director of the Second Defendant, Sena- Julia Publicatus Limited, which publishes Royalty Monthly. On 17 September 2004 the Defendants published an article in Royalty Monthly, under the heading ‘Scandal in Romania as Princess Margarita’s husband is branded an imposter’. In the article the Defendants alleged that there was a very strong case against the Claimant that he was dishonestly claiming to have been granted the title “Prinz von Hohenzollern-Veringen” by Friedrich Wilhelm Furst von Hohenzollern (“the Furst”), the Head of the Hohenzollern family, and that he was relying on a forged document to support his claims. They also alleged that, as a result of his actions, the Claimant was deceiving people into according him access to social circles and to particular official roles, including to NATO committees, to which he would otherwise not PCR1-489576.2 be admitted, and that he was using the title for monetary gain. In addition, the Defendants alleged that there was a strong case that the Claimant had created a security risk because what he had done had exposed him to blackmail.
