No to War – No to NATO is an international network of peace activists, organizations, and movements working together against war, militarism, NATO expansion, and increasing military spending.
The network brings together people and organizations from different countries who share a commitment to peace, disarmament, international cooperation, social justice, and common security. It challenges the idea that security can be achieved through military alliances, arms races, nuclear weapons, foreign military bases, and endless increases in military budgets.
No to War – No to NATO advocates for:
- Peace and diplomacy instead of war and military escalation
- Disarmament and the abolition of nuclear weapons
- An end to military blocs, foreign military bases, and global militarization
- Reduced military spending and greater investment in social needs, welfare, public services, and climate justice
- International cooperation and a system of common security for all
Through international meetings, webinars, campaigns, demonstrations, counter-summits, publications, and solidarity actions, the network connects peace movements across borders and works to build a broad global movement against war and militarism.

Appeal from Stuttgart Oct. 2008

Appeal agreed to in Stuttgart, Germany, October 5th, 2008
No to War – No to NATO
On the occasion of the sixtieth anniversary of the NATO military organization, we appeal to all people to come to Strasbourg and Baden-Baden 2009, to protest against NATO’s aggressive military and nuclear policies, and assert our vision of a just world free of war.

Since the end of the Cold War, NATO has reinvented itself as a tool for military action by the “international community”, including the promotion of the so-called “war on terror”. In reality it is a vehicle for US-led use of force with military bases on all continents, bypassing the United Nations and the system of international law, accelerating militarization and escalating arms expenditure – NATO countries account for 75% of global military expenditure.
