from 10:30 am at the former Occupied Barracks in Livorno in Via Adriana 16 ----
The next meeting of the Antimilitarist Assembly is convened in Livorno on 25June. While the climate of war and rearmament policies grow, we see signs of aresumption of anti-war movements and military installations, in this context therole of antimilitarism is central. A new meeting moment in which to bringtogether the many realities active in the area that already animate this path andopen the confrontation with new situations, is a fundamental step to continue toweave this network of solidarity, to discuss the many initiatives that will beheld during the course of the summer, and relaunch new moments of common strugglein the coming months.Livorno was confirmed as the location to host this assembly also on the thrust ofthe great demonstration on 2 June in Coltano, between Livorno and Pisa. Aprocession convened by the No Base Movement to challenge the project for theconstruction of a new megacarmen for the Tuscania and GIS paratroopersCarabinieri. A base where the troops that Italy sends around the world with itsmissions abroad will be trained. The whole area is heavily militarized, and isbecoming more and more a real hub of the war, with the presence of COMFOSE, CampDarby, the military airport of Pisa, the Folgore Brigade, the Naval Academy, aswell as the same port of Livorno through which loads of weapons regularly pass.So the question of missions abroad remains central if we look at the movementagainst the Coltano base, as well as other ongoing struggles. After all, theItalian government is preparing to launch new military missions abroad: with thesending of an air group to Niger, the Air-Sahel Task group with C-27J aircraft,in support of the military mission already present in the country , where Italyhas also opened its own base; with new missions in Eastern Europe to strengthenthe NATO device on the south-east side, 500 Italian soldiers in Bulgaria, 600between Romania and Hungary. In six months, the number of soldiers sent abroad tofight for the interests of those who govern us has increased significantly,including those of ENI.The assembly to be held on 25 June in Livorno will try to continue the work ofrecomposing the forces that are committed to anti-militarism. Many things havechanged since the first meeting of 9 October in Milan at the KasciavitLaboratory. If last autumn a lot of energy had to be devoted to even just raisingthe issue of war, military missions and militarization within the movements, nowwar is at the center of public debate. Of course, in the face of "helmetedpacifists" and those who think that one of the imperialist camps at war can besupported, antimilitarism has the task of clarifying and the work of study andreporting on military missions is still fundamental for give oneself effectivetools, but at the same time the deadlines for the struggle are also multiplying.After the general strike of May 20 and the demonstration of June 2 in Coltano,which also saw the commitment of the Antimilitarist Assembly, the demonstrationagainst the USAF air base in Aviano is scheduled for June 19, where bombs arealso stored. atomic, organized by the Regional Libertarian Coordination FVG.There will then be a street initiative in Turin on 2 July against the aerospacecitadel and NATO's innovation accelerator. Then there are the initiatives aroundthe NO MUOS campsite on 5-7 August which will end with an important event. It isa question of understanding what perspectives to give starting from theseexperiences. In addition to putting together the different experiences rooted inthe territories, it is a question of understanding what perspectives to give tothe Antimilitarist Assembly.The demonstration against the arms exhibition-market on 20 November in Turin, theday of studies on Energy and War in Milan on 19 March and the march against ENIon 2 April in Milan starting from Piazza Affari, marked important milestones inthe activities of these months.
