Armament and war but also „we will not be silent!“
At the NATO Summit in Brussels US President Trump wants to collect imaginary debts and the European heads of state reiterate their willingness to spend 2% of GDP on armament. A large wave of armament is coming, for Germany 2% military spending means an increase from 37 billion Euro to 69 billion Euro, for Europe an increase of 200 billion to more than 300 billion Euro.

Trois structures de panneaux de signalisation surplombant le trajet des délégations ont été occupées par une quarantaine de personnes.

Tous à Bruxelles les 24 et 25 mai prochains contre l’OTAN
Après les déclarations tonitruantes de Donald Trump pendant sa campagne électorale annonçant le désinvestissement des USA dans l’OTAN, voire sa dissolution, la réalité apparait crûment : il effectuera son premier voyage en Europe depuis son élection à l’occasion du sommet de l’OTAN des 25 et 26 mai 2017, correspondant à l’inauguration de son nouveau siège à Bruxelles.
Seuls les naïfs ont pu croire que les messages par tweeter auraient une réalité et ignorer que cette annonce signifierait plutôt une demande de participation financière accrue de la part des 27 autres membres de l’OTAN.
