Statement of the European Communist Initiative on the NATO Summit in Warsaw.
We, the Communist and Workers' Parties, which participate in the European Communist Initiative, express our firm rejection of NATO and the new aggressive plans to be accepted by the NATO summit in Warsaw on 8-9 July 2016.
We say No to NATO
NATO has a permanent military presence in Central and Eastern Europe. The Polish government insists on establishing permanent NATO bases in Poland and building a new Missile Defense Shield in the country.
NATO spreads its activity in the Aegean Sea and is expanding all over the world.
NATO is urging all member states to rise its military spending to at least 2% of GDP and plans to invite new members to the imperialist alliance.
NATO supports the pro-fascist, nationalist regime of Ukraine. The leading circles of NATO countries overlook the fact that Ukraine does not fulfill the Minsk-agreements. They pardon the Ukrainian regime for the ban on the activity of communist forces in the country.
