A joint statement signed, to date, by eight Communist and workers' parties including parties in Germany, Spain, Italy and Ukraine has been released calling for an end to NATO's war policy, the withdrawal of all US nuclear weapons from Europe, stopping deployment of new medium-range missiles in Germany and shutting down all NATO facilities.
Against the imperialist war alliance NATO – Stop NATO's war policy
There are military bases of NATO and its leading force USA in many states of the world, in some of them US nuclear weapons are stationed. They are an immediate danger for all countries that do not subordinate themselves to the USA and its allies. From 2025, it is planned to station additional SM-6 medium-range missiles, Dark Eagle hypersonic missiles and Tomahawk cruise missiles, to begin with in the FRG (Germany). These are being announced as conventional missiles, but all of them can be equipped with nuclear warheads. These are offensive weapons that threaten the strategic balance. This is a further step towards escalation and increases the danger of a nuclear war.
NATO has been an aggressive imperialist war alliance since its foundation, initially directed against the socialist states. The number of wars of aggression waged by NATO states since its foundation runs into the dozens; in addition to a few other states, it has been mainly the United States that has been responsible for them.
After the defeat of socialism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, NATO expanded continuously and against all agreements to the Russian border. A further step was to be taken in 2014 with the coup d'état in Ukraine by nationalist and fascist forces. When this was met with resistance in parts of the country, Ukraine became a military staging area through which NATO is now waging a war against Russia, with NATO weapons as well as financial and political support.
In October 2024, a NATO tactical headquarters (Commander Taskforce Baltic) was officially opened in the German Baltic Sea port of Rostock, in violation of the provisions of the “Two Plus Four Treaty”.
NATO supports Israel politically and with weapons in its genocide in the Gaza Strip and its terrorist war against Lebanon.
In Asia, too, NATO is pursuing an aggressive policy of provocation against the PRC (China) in Taiwan, with the expansion of aggressive military alliances such as AUCUS.
NATO countries are militarily active in Africa and Latin America to enforce their imperialist interests there.
NATO's war policy, which is the military expression of the efforts of the USA and its allies to achieve imperialist dominance and subjugate other states and peoples, is responsible for millions of deaths, it endangers world peace, and it causes poverty and misery worldwide.
We want to protest in our countries coordinated, so on a common date, against NATO war policy!
Withdrawal of all US nuclear weapons from Europe!
No deployment of new medium-range missiles in Germany!
Withdrawal of all NATO facilities!
