Opposing US and NATO nuclear expansion |
|
Over 250 peace activists joined the Blockade of RAF Lakenheath organised by Lakenheath Alliance for Peace in April. It was the culmination of a two-week long peace camp to shine a spotlight on the role this base plays in US / NATO militarism. The camp brought together peace campaigners from across the world, activists new to protesting and local residents outraged by this US nuclear base in their community.
The actions took place in the context of strengthening NATO militarism across Europe and Britain. Trump’s plans to secure a settlement in Ukraine are being used to whip up international tensions by Britain and countries across Europe in order to justify huge, cold-War level increases in military spending.

Why Iran is crucial to a nuclear free Middle East |
|
|
A nuclear weapons free zone across the Middle East will be foundational in ensuring a long-term, stable peace in the region – a goal which seems far away just now. And US-Iran talks are decisive to the future of the region, both for the possibility of dialling down military escalation in the short term, as well as taking the first steps on the long road to denuclearising the region over time.
