On
May 24th and 25th, NATO leaders will be present in Brussels for an important
NATO summit and for the inauguration of their new headquarters. Donald Trump,
the President of the United States, has announced that new many billions will be
spent on the military, and he urges Europe to do so too. The rise of defense
budgets up to 2% of the Gross Domestic Product will undoubtedly be one of the
most important topics on this summit meeting. We don’t want more money for war!
We want investments in education, health, job creation and solidarity.
Together
with international partners, the Belgian peace movement calls upon you to take
part in a wide range of planned actions in order to show that these warmongers
are not welcome.
We
invite all organizations to support the initiative. How? By endorsing the call,
by actively participating in its actions, and by providing some hard-needed
financial support.
What
are we planning?
- A series of direct actions, starting on Sunday, May 21st.
- Participation in the big “Trump Not Welcome” march on Wednesday, May 24th at 5PM. Suggestions or co-operation?
- A Conference & workshops with international guests on Thursday, May 25th.
