We call for a full explanation from the Turkish & German authorities regarding these actions & urge all NATO member states to publicly condemn the mistreatment of peaceful & democratic activists. Today,as always,we say no to the undemocratic & rights-violating NATO,& yes to global peace & justice.

In 2025, the world spent $2.9 trillion on the military, according to SIPRI. We urge governments to undertake major reductions to their military expenditure and redirect those funds to social and environmental sectors, tackling the global challenges of our time, and funding human security.
