The Secretary General of the United Nations
António Guterres has proposed a ceasefire,
urged a negotiated settlement, and met with the
President of Russia despite opposition in the West to
doing so.
Pope Francis has urged a ceasefire
and negotiations, declared that no war can be justified,
and encouraged workers to block weapons
shipments.
The President of Italy Sergio
Mattarella, speaking to the Parliamentary
Assembly of the Council of Europe, has urged pursuit of
a ceasefire and negotiated settlement. Prime
Minister Mario Draghi and Foreign
Minister Luigi Di Maiohave
even proposed a draft agreement.
The President of France Emanuel
Macron has proposed a ceasefire, negotiations,
and the creation of new non-military
alliances.
The President of Germany Frank-Walter
Steinmeier and Chancellor Olaf
Scholz have urged a ceasefire and
negotiations.
We must appeal to all of the governments of the world
to back this call for peace.
A war must eventually be ended, either through
negotiation or by putting an end to us all through
nuclear apocalypse.
The belief by both sides that ending it later will be
better is almost always catastrophically wrong. The
unwillingness to end wars is driven largely by hatred,
resentment, and the corrupt influences that create wars
in the first place.
A negotiated settlement must come, and the sooner the
better.
A ceasefire need not wait for a resolution of all
issues, only for a credible commitment to negotiate by
all sides.
The G7 will be meeting near Munich June 26-28. NATO
will be meeting in Madrid on June 28-30.
Our goal is to speak up for peace and cooperation,
the scaling back and dismantling of military alliances,
the disarmament of governments, and the democratization
and strengthening of international institutions of
nonviolent cooperation and the rule of law.
It is beyond time to address the unavoidable crises
of nuclear risk, climate collapse, hunger, and
homelessness, rather than manufacturing crises for the
benefit of weapons dealers.
Our plan is to hold a non-stop 24-hour
rolling rally live streaming on a Zoom channel from 2
p.m. in Iceland on June 25 to 4 p.m. in Ukraine on June
26. There will be video from protests, demonstrations,
vigils, teach-ins, and speakers at their desks. There
will be music and art.
A detailed agenda will be posted sent to those who’ve
signed up to attend. You can of course drop in and out
at any time during the 24 hours.
