Stop the War coalition: Trump's New World Disorder - Online Meeting 27/02/25

Donald Trump has torn up the post Second World War order by threatening to pull support for NATO and holding unilateral peace talks with Vladimir Putin over Ukraine.

 

If it comes, an end to the war in Ukraine would be welcome. But Trump’s aggressive nationalism will increase instability and accelerate the drive to war as evidenced by European governments immediate calls for increased arms spending. Meanwhile Trump’s monstrous plans for Gaza threaten further catastrophe for the Palestinians.

 

Stop the War has organised a zoom webinar with key activists and commentators to discuss the dangers posed by Trump and Trumpism. Please register now.

Starmer’s plans to send troops to Ukraine and increase arms spending must be opposed. Sending British troops to Ukraine would be a provocation and upping arms spending will lead to further cuts at a time when services are already close to collapse.

 

We have produced a petition ‘No troops to Ukraine: Welfare not Warfare’ to be used in workplaces, colleges, communities and on the streets. We are urging all our groups to organise street stalls this weekend to put the case against increasing militarism.

Leaflets for the 15 March Palestine demonstration are available from the office.

 

We need to make sure the next Palestine demonstration is huge. Londonders please come and pick up leaflets ASAP, others rush orders in and we will send them out to you. Let us know!

 

Meanwhile, if you are not already a member, please join Stop the War, it is absolutely clear we are going to need your support and active participation in the weeks and months ahead.
