'AUKUS: Why We Say No' emergency online rally
Thursday 23rd September at 6:30pm
The announcement of AUKUS - the military partnership between the UK, the US and Australia - is a dangerous escalation in the West’s ongoing confrontation with China.
Spreading nuclear technology is at the heart of the deal: the US and UK are collaborating with Australia to provide them with nuclear-powered submarines. This risks nuclear proliferation and is a breach of the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Join CND, Stop the War and our panel of experts and activists to discuss the dangers ahead and how best to organise against this destabilising development.
Speakers include Jeremy Corbyn MP; Marian Hobbs, former New Zealand Minister of Disarmament; Phyllis Bennis, US author and activist; Denis Doherty, Australian anti-bases campaign; Paul Rogers, Emeritus Professor of Peace Studies, Bradford University; Lindsey German, Stop the War; Jenny Clegg, China specialist, CND. Chaired by Kate Hudson, CND General Secretary.
