Statement of the ICC of the international No to war – no to NATO network (24.02.2022)

No-to-War No-to-Nato condemns the Russian military aggression against Ukraine. There is no justification for war.

The bombing must stop immediately. What is needed, is a comprehensive ceasefire, the withdrawal of all troops and a return to the negotiating table.

Western political actions should focus on de-escalation, resuming talks, and avoiding further hatred and confrontation. We reject sanctions that affect the civilian population. Continue reading →

The Ukraine Crisis and the New Cold War (on China as well as Russia)

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

I’ve written an article on the Ukraine Crisis and the New Cold War. It aims to set out the bigger picture with the US expanding its power and influence not only across Europe but also in Asia. What happens in the Ukraine in fact has serious implications for the Pacific. The crisis manufactured by the US is a part of NATO’s drive to subordinate Europe aiming not least to prevent its tilt toward the China-Russia partnership and to block the Eurasian link as part of the new multipolar order.

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

On Saturday, February 19, 2022, 11am, a demonstration against the NATO at the NATO base in Giugliano/Lago Patria near Napoli (Italy) will take place.   We are organizing this protest obviously because of the conjunctural situation in the Russo-Ukrainian conflict, but the importance of that NATO base goes beyond that: In the last weeks, the NATO NeptunStrike2022 military exercise in the Mediterranean Sea took place and it was directed from Naples. The Southern Italian city has a central role as … Continue reading →

Statement of the ICC of the international No to war – no to NATO network

No to war in Ukraine

No to NATO expansion

Europe needs cooperation and disarmament

Tensions between NATO and Russia – two nuclear-armed powers – are reaching alarming proportions. We call for an end to this confrontation: if it doesn’t end, everyone will lose. Ukraine is already paying a heavy economic and human price as a result of these hostilities, unnecessarily stirred up internationally and nationally. Following this politics of confrontation to its logical conclusion means that many people will die. Continue reading →
