The organizers invite individuals, organizations and peace advocates worldwide to endorse and attend an international peace conference to “stop the Third World War” in Rome on Oct. 27-28, 2023. Already, over 86 organizations from more than 33 countries have signed on to the list of demands, urging immediate action to defuse the tensions and promote dialogue. These organizations recognize the active role the international working class must play in dismantling NATO, the attack dog of U.S./European [neo]imperialism, as a precondition to achieving lasting peace.

By endorsing the list of demands, you can add your voice to the growing coalition that advocates for:

  • The immediate halting of arms shipments to Ukraine.
  • An end to the sanctions on Russia, as well as the cessation of the Russophobic campaign.
  • The invalidation of the statement condemning Russia as a terrorist state.
  • An armistice between the belligerent forces, allowing for peaceful negotiations.
  • The establishment of a truly neutral and democratic Ukraine.
  • The cessation of the arms race and the dissolution of NATO.

Your endorsement can make a difference. We urge you to join us in Rome and be part of this historic event. Only the popular struggle of the international working class can defeat the forces of U.S./Western militarism and [neo]imperialism.

Navigate to internationalpeaceconference.info/ to sign on and endorse.

    Sounds like a very one-sided approach, aimed at appeasing Russia.

    How could there be any war if no one would invade?

    A peace treaty has to include something like “each country respects the territorial sovereignity of the other”. But how could Ukraine trust Russia to honor that treaty, when Russia already broke the last one? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest_Memorandum

    In February 2016, Sergey Lavrov claimed, “Russia never violated Budapest memorandum. It contained only one obligation, not to attack Ukraine with nukes.”[38] However, Canadian journalist Michael Colborne pointed out that “there are actually six obligations in the Budapest Memorandum, and the first of them is ‘to respect the independence and sovereignty and the existing borders of Ukraine’”. Colborne also pointed out that a broadcast of Lavrov’s claim on the Twitter account of Russia’s embassy in the United Kingdom actually “provided a link to the text of the Budapest Memorandum itself with all six obligations, including the ones Russia has clearly violated – right there for everyone to see.”

    How to trust a liar, how to make peace with an invader?

    When someone breaks into your house, do you cede your garage to them or do you throw them out? When you break into a house and are rewarded with a garage, what’s stopping you from repeating the same procedure with the next house?

    I know this is a heated topic. While we can have strong opinions about the subject, let’s try to be civil with each other.

    Sucking up to Russia isn’t going to prevent ww3, it’ll just make them think they can get away with even more aggression. They fucked around and found out. Now they’re dealing with the repercussions of their actions. Calling out these tyrants on their bullshit isn’t “Russophobic”, it’s common sense.

              Ever considered that maybe there are other perspectives on the issue and that people who disagree with you may have valid points and aren’t automatically idiots

                Where are these other perspectives then? All I’ve got so far is ad hominem responses instead of any actual points.

                  Its not an ad hominem if it accurately labels you.

                  Ukraine had been bombing and committing ethnic cleansing and cultural erasure of Russia and Russian-ethnic peoples for the better part of a decade now, and now are acting like cowards when Russia has the nerve to defend themselves.

                  You talk shit and do stupid shit, you win stupid prizes.

              Your use of “Enjoy s**king off Putin” positions fellatio as humiliating and worthy of contempt.

              There’s nothing wrong with fellatio. Your use of it is homophobic.

              It’s pretty common with liberals like yourself to excuse casual homophobia, as long as the target is someone you despise.

                I’m literally pansexual. I suck dicks for fun. You have no moral high ground here so get off your high horse. I can tell someone to suck a dick if I want to.

                Edit: Women suck dick too y’know?
