NO to U.S. Military Bases in Poland! 


March, 15th 2008

A big manifestation against locating American military bases in Poland took
place in Warsaw on Saturday, March 15th. Leftwing activists and
anti-militarists marched from the presidential palace to the Polish
Parliament and then the U.S. embassy. 

Together they called the Polish president and prime minister to withdraw
there support for the USA governments' plans for building an other American
military installation on European soil. 

Grzegorz Ilkowski (The Initiative Against War) said the American imperial
policy is now the mayor threat to peace and that groups from all around
Europe and the world most mobilize to face this threat.

Young Socialists (member-observer status in the Party of the European Left),
who are presently leading a country-wide anti-militarism campaign,  were
also present in Warsaw that day . Adrian Zandberg, in his speech, expressed
his belief that the fact that most Polish politicians support the concept of
locating American military bases in Poland, against the will of most of
their own citizens, will strengthen the anti-militarism movement and actions
like these most continue in the future. Katarzyna Matuszewska, reminded that
the European Left condemns the process of further arms race in Europe and
will attempt to block the acceptance from UE countries for this process.
