This post is about Baba Vanga, a supposed Bulgarian clairvoyant who is said to have predicted the future. Since I like to deal with predictions and probabilities in the world and am interested, I thought about writing a post with a list of predictions that Baba Vanga is supposed to have predicted, since there is no such thing in a neutral form.
About Baba Vanga
If you don't know the phenomenon of Baba Vanga, here is a small excerpt:
Baba Vanga, born Vangeliya Pandeva Dimitrova, known after her marriage as Vangelia Gushterova, was a blind Bulgarian mystic, clairvoyant and herbalist who spent most of her life in the Rupite region of the Kozhuh Mountains in Bulgaria. Zheni Kostadinova claimed in 1997 that millions of people believed she possessed paranormal abilities.
Baba Vanga was a Bulgarian alleged psychic. She convinced many followers that she had paranormal abilities.
Origin of the predictions
I have taken the predictions from vizagchemical.com (WebArchive), because this page is the only one with a complete listing from the year 2010.
Although it is not clear whether these predictions were really made by Baba Vanga or made up by other websites or users, they have been attributed to Baba Vanga. However, due to the poor documentation of her predictions, much has only been passed down orally.
Furthermore, websites and digital news magazines exploit Baba Vanga's predictions every year to gain clicks and views through clickbait articles and to earn reach and ultimately money. In the German-speaking Internet, the SEO dominance of the well-known news portals is so great that it is difficult to find really useful information that does not serve commercial purposes.
Predictions before 2010
The listing of these predictions is only for completeness, since there is no evidence that can confirm the predictions in a temporal context of that time, so a verification whether really these predictions were made by Baba Vanga, is not possible.

Some think this refers to the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York.) - NYPOST - The 44th president of the USA will be black (Wikipedia)

2025 - Europe is still sparsely populated.
Prediction: unlikely
The prediction is that in 2025 Europe will still be sparsely populated, based on the prediction of 2010 and a nuclear war. As of 2023, however, this prediction is not very tenable and therefore unlikely.
Nearby Event:
- 2022 Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine, still ongoing as of September 2023. Whether the refugee movement and Ukraine could be meant by little populated?
My own theory: a nuclear attack of a war party or secondary war party in the war between Russia and Ukraine, it could lead to the fact that whole regions will be no longer habitable for years.
2028 - Creation of a new energy source (probably a controlled thermonuclear reaction). Starvation is gradually overcome. Launch of a manned spacecraft to Venus.
Prediction: Partial Probability
- The prediction says that in the year 2028 there should be a new energy source, this may well be the currently running experiments around nuclear fusion, between ITER (Tokamak Technology), Wendelstein 7-X (stellarator technology), Helion Energy (Magnetinertial Fusion)
- Global hunger is more likely not to be solved, as since 2014, after several years of falling People who have malnutrition according to WHODue to the Corona pandemic in 2021-2022, there were global supply bottlenecks, and due to the Russia/Ukraine war since 2022, quite a few countries are or were cut off from grain supplies. In order to end world hunger, it will take 2020, 330 billion US dollars.
- Between 2028 and 2029, 3 probes are to be sent to Venus. DAVINCI and VERITAS from the USA, and VENERA-D from Russia. However, all 3 missions are still in development and it is not uncommon that delays occur in spaceflight.
