National Security Memorandum 200

National Security Memorandum 200 (NSM 200) in 1974 was a confidential memo by Henry Kissinger to discuss adopting a global De-Population status based on limited resources and the idea that third-world population growth would consume global food supplies and resources.

This led to the Global 2000 Report to the President under the Carter Administration, issued first in 1980.

NSM 200 was reworked as NSDM 314 under Gerald Ford in 1975 and was classified for over a decade. It reportedly recommended the US use population control methods in underdeveloped nations.

This policy is linked to narratives about resource scarcity, Climate Change, Desertification, and other fear tactics.

Kissinger is also described as an architect of policies promoting Open Borders, though in a late interview, he lamented the policy of allowing many people of different cultures and religions into Europe, stating it created pressure groups.
