There was no mention at the Madrid Summit of arms control, non-proliferation or disarmament. Nor did allies call for a de-escalation in Ukraine.

Erklärung zum NATO-Gipfel in Madrid am 29. und 30. Juni 2022
Das internationale Netzwerk “No-to-War No-to-Nato” ist empört über die Entscheidung der NATO-Regierungschefs, Konfrontation, Militarisierung und Globalisierung weiter zu verstärken, statt auf Dialog, Abrüstung und friedliche Koexistenz zu setzen. In Madrid hat die NATO ein neues strategisches Konzept verabschiedet. Die NATO behauptet, ein auf gemeinsamen demokratischen Werten basierendes Bündnis zu sein, das sich für einen gerechten und umfassenden Frieden einsetzt und ein Bollwerk für eine auf Regeln basierende internationale Ordnung ist. In Wirklichkeit werden in NATO-Ländern wie Polen, Ungarn und der … Continue reading →
NATO-Gipfel: Weiter Aufrüstung per Autopilot
Veröffentlicht 29. Juni 2022 Özlem Alev Demirel, außen- und friedenspolitische Sprecherin von DIE LINKE im Europaparlament, erklärt zum NATO-Gipfel in Madrid: „Die Katze war schon einen Tag vor dem offiziellen Beginn des Madrider NATO-Gipfels aus dem Sack: die schnelle Eingreiftruppe der NATO soll von derzeit 40.000 auf 300.000 Soldat:innen drastisch erhöht werden. Auch die permanente NATO-Vorwärtspräsenz in acht osteuropäischen Staaten will das Bündnis von der aktuellen Bataillonsgröße von etwa 1.000 bis 1.500 Soldat:innen auf Brigadegröße, also 3.000 bis 5.000 Soldat:innen, … Continue reading →
Declaración sobre la cumbre de la OTAN en Madrid del 29 al 30 de junio de 2022
La Red Internacional ‘No-to-War No-to-Nato’ está indignada por la decisión de los jefes de gobierno de la OTAN de incrementar aún más el enfrentamiento, la militarización y la globalización en lugar de optar por el diálogo, el desarme y la convivencia pacífica. En Madrid, la OTAN aprobó un nuevo concepto estratégico. La OTAN afirma ser una alianza basada en valores democráticos compartidos, que trabaja por una paz justa e inclusiva y es un baluarte para un orden internacional basado en … Continue reading →

The Global NATO Alliance, the European Left, and the Crack in Everything
The Democratic Party is unquestioningly supporting an endless proxy war and has been reluctant to press President Biden to prioritize a negotiated settlement to the war. Joseph Gerson July 12, 2022 https://www.commondreams.org/views/2022/07/12/global-nato-alliance-european-left-and-crack-everything It is no secret that the United States and NATO are engaged in a proxy war with Russia, perhaps to be fought to the last Ukrainian. In June, as heads of state gathered in Madrid for the Alliance’s annual summit, I joined more than 10,000 … Continue reading →

G7, NATO and BRICS summits confirm a global divide
By Sara Flounders posted on July 8, 2022

https://iacenter.org/2022/07/08/g7-nato-and-brics-summits-confirm-a-global-divide/
Three very different international meetings were held during the week of June 23-30. The three “summits” confirm a growing global divide. It is worth examining these meetings; who attended, and especially what they projected. Two focused on confrontation and military escalation — in sharp contrast to the first – BRICS – which focused on cooperation, sustainable development and trade.

Popular Resistance
I was one of hundreds who attended the “NO to NATO” peace summit June 26-27 and one of tens of thousands who marched for “NO to NATO” in Madrid a few days before the leaders of the 30 NATO countries arrived in the city to map out NATO’s future military actions.
Two conferences, the Peace Summit and the Counter-Summit, provided opportunities for Spaniards and international delegations to hear the impact of ever-increasing military budgets on NATO countries that give weaponry and personnel to the war mongering capabilities of NATO at the expense of health, education, housing and other true human security needs.

Statement on NATO summit in Madrid 29 – 30 June 2022
The international network ‘No-to-War No-to-Nato’ is outraged by the decision of NATO’s heads of government to further increase confrontation, militarization and globalization instead of opting for dialogue, disarmament and peaceful co-existence.
In Madrid, NATO approved a new strategic concept. NATO claims to be an alliance based on shared democratic values, working towards just and inclusive peace and is a bulwark for a rules-based international order. In reality, in NATO-countries like Poland, Hungary and Turkey, Continue reading →
