Misiles en Polonia: la moderación es vital
La red internacional “No a la guerra – no a la OTAN” apoya la siguiente declaración, emitida el 15 de noviembre de 2022 por la Campaña para el Desarme Nuclear (CND).
La Campaña para el Desarme Nuclear está profundamente preocupada por los informes sobre la explosión de un misil en Polonia y está consternada por la pérdida de vidas. Estos últimos acontecimientos exigen claridad y moderación. Este último episodio trágico en la actual guerra catastrófica en Ucrania no debería, y no debe, dar lugar a una respuesta militar escalada. Esto es especialmente importante dado el aumento de la amenaza nuclear. Hacemos un llamamiento a las Naciones Unidas y a la Organización para la Seguridad y la Cooperación en Europa (OSCE) para que aclaren los hechos ocurridos, y reiteramos nuestros llamamientos a una solución urgente y pacífica de este conflicto.

Missiles on Poland: Restraint is Vital
The international “No to war – no to NATO” network supports the statement below, which was issued on 15 November 2022 from the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND).
The Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament is deeply concerned by reports of a missile explosion in Poland and is appalled that lives have been lost. These most recent developments demand clarity and restraint. This latest tragic episode in the ongoing catastrophic war in Ukraine should not, and must not, result in an escalated military response. This is especially important given the heightened nuclear threat. We call on the United Nations and the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) to clarify the facts of what took place, and we reiterate our calls for an urgent and peaceful resolution to this conflict.

“Wir brauchen einen Wechsel in der US-Außenpolitik”
Der Stellvertreterkrieg zwischen den USA und Russland richtet in der Ukraine verheerende Schäden an – ironischerweise, um die Ukraine zu retten. Warum Bidens auch gegen China gerichteter Kurs die Demokraten in den Abgrund ziehen könnte.

Provocative nuclear exercises – a big mistake
CND has condemned NATO’s ongoing round of nuclear weapons exercises, warning they will further escalate tension and military conflict in Ukraine. The nuclear drills – titled Steadfast Noon – commenced on Monday and will run for two weeks. They are training air crews to use US tactical nuclear bombs in the event of a nuclear war. At a time when there is regular reference to the use of tactical nukes in the context of the Ukraine war, this is indeed … Continue reading →

NATO practices deployment of nuclear weapons in Belgium
NATO Secretary-General Stoltenberg will chair a meeting of the ‘Nuclear Planning Group’ to discuss Russian nuclear threats and NATO’s nuclear role. He announced that ‘Steadfast Noon’ manoeuvres will take place next week. What Stoltenberg did not disclose is that these “routine exercises” will occur at the military air base in Kleine-Brogel, Belgium.
‘Steadfast Noon’ is the code name for annual joint multinational exercises carried out by NATO countries with a central role for Belgian, German, Italian and Dutch fighter aircrafts responsible for the use of nuclear arms in war times as part of NATO’s nuclear sharing policy.
