SUMMARY:International Forum for Peace 2025
DESCRIPTION:Explore more HERE \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe are less than 90 seconds to midnight. \nGenocide in Gaza. War in Ukraine. Escalation in the Congo. Bombs over Yemen. Bloodshed in Sudan.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe world is drifting toward total war — if we do not act now to prevent it. \nIn June\, the Hague will host the 2025 NATO Summit\, with its members preparing commitments to boost defence spending\, ‘ReArm’ the old continent\, and expand NATO’s global influence. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNATO General Secretary Mark Rutte has vowed to make the Hague Summit “a real success\,” promising US President Donald Trump that it will “project American power on the world stage.” \nTrump and his NATO allies have already made clear what they hope to do with that power: pursue the dominance of “Western civilization” across the planet\, and enrich themselves along the way. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo as they prepare for war\, we must prepare for peace. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe rapid rise of militarism on the Atlantic calls on us to build a global movement behind a common vision of dialogue\, diplomacy\, and sovereign equality among nations. \nThat is why — on 23-24 June\, exactly fifty years from the signing of the Helsinki Accords — peoples from across the world will gather in Brussels for the International Forum for Peace with an objective to: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n— Develop new diplomatic strategies for conflict resolution across the world \n— Forge a coalition to oppose the rise of military spending on both sides of the Atlantic. \n— Agitate for the immediate closure of foreign military bases on European soil. \n— Challenge the narrative of a new Cold War that seeks to divide the world into irreconcilable blocs. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n— Promote the policies of welfare\, not warfare to deliver social and economic justice. \n— Rejuvenate the movement for nuclear disarmament among all nuclear powers. \n— Renew the principles of the Helsinki Accords on the occasion of their 50th anniversary.
