The 2025 NATO Summit will be held at the World Forum in The Hague,
Netherlands, from June 24 to 26. As the war machine gathers thousands of
delegates from its 32 member states to orchestrate the next great wave
of military expansion, we cannot remain silent. We must raise a banner
of defiance and resistance. NATO does not exist to protect us. It serves
the interests of states, corporations, and the few at the expense of the
many. ---- The state and NATO, or any other multinational military
alliance, do not bring us security, they bring us control by seeking
only our obedience, our compliance and our capitulation. Whether it is
the endemic police violence in our communities or the bloody
battlefields of Ukraine and the oceans of ruins of Gaza, we have only
one enemy: capitalism and the state.
Since its inception in 1947, NATO has acted only as an enforcer of
imperialist violence, an instrument of repression and an engine of war.
It does not protect peace. It is our class enemy and a direct threat to
the life and well-being of every one of us. Our struggle is not between
nations, it is against the ruling class we all resist. This remains
true, even during the brutal reality of war. Under the guise of European
and national security, NATO governments are funneling billions into
military budgets while cutting vital social services.
As they build armies, they leave us to fight for survival. They impose
austerity while they hoard resources for war. They build armies while we
fight for healthcare, housing, and basic dignity. We watch them every
day as they increasingly turn to the next generation and prepare them to
take up arms, deprived of every opportunity, seeing no choice but to
enlist to become cannon fodder in conflicts not of their own making,
sold out to adventure, false brotherhood, and patriotism. When the
conscripts return, mutilated and broken, they are cast aside, useful
only as symbols for empty parades. In their military regalia, they show
in the light of day that propaganda never ends.
We call on anarchists, anti-authoritarians and all those who oppose war
to come together, organize and resist militarism. NATO and its warlords
will meet, but so will we. We will take to the streets. We will disrupt
their displays of power. We will create solidarity networks and directly
oppose their wars, their militarized police and their repression of our
movements. We anarchists fight for a world without borders, without
states and without armies that uphold their rule.
We call for international solidarity against NATO and any manifestation
of militarized oppression, be it the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
(NATO), the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), the
Peninsula Shield Force (PSF), the Alliance of Sahel States (AES), the
ReArm Europe 2030 Plan, or any other so-called “collective security”
pact or army. In each case, they serve the same purpose: to sustain
domination through force, to perpetuate suffering around the world. The
weapons they use today to secure resources, will be turned against us
tomorrow.
We call on all anarchists, anti-authoritarians and anti-militarists to
act these days in The Hague and around the world in international
solidarity. Let the specifics of our plans grow together. Organize
together and prepare our actions, together we will let them know: we
reject the false choices of nationalism. We reject the false idea that
NATO is there to protect. We reject the brutality of their militarism
and the martial doctrines of war. We reject their budget proposals that
will starve the coffers of the working class and we support the victims
and deserters of all wars.
No war between peoples, no peace between classes.
