Join the Stop the War's International Day of Action in Southampton

The Russian war on Ukraine is escalating by the hour – it’s a scary and extremely dangerous situation for Ukrainians and the world as a whole.

The actions of Putin in invading Ukraine have shocked the world. The longer the war continues, the longer the suffering will continue.

A huge convoy of Russian troops is approaching Kiev and there have been devastating air attacks in which over 100 civilians have been killed. We must demand the withdrawal of all Russian forces and a ceasefire immediately.

 

Talk of a no fly zone – which will result in much greater military conflict – is only further inflaming the situation. The danger of further escalations by the US and NATO threaten a much wider conflict which must be resisted. We are talking about a real threat of nuclear powers in direct conflict. 

 

In Russia and around the world people are protesting for peace and a negotiated settlement to the war. We must send them our solidarity and do so by following their lead and taking to our own streets to demand an end to this war. 

This Sunday (6th March) there will be an International Day of Actionagainst war. Around the country and the world people are organising demonstrations, protests and vigils. In the UK there are dozens of protests already announced.

Please make sure there is one organised in your town or city if there is not one already. If you have an event you’d like us to add to the list please email: [email protected] now!
