SUPPORT ORGANIZATION OF THE INTERNATIONAL PEACE FORUM IN BRATISLAVA
Today, the largest sabbat of militarists, GLOBSEC 2021, begins in Bratislava. A global security conference, at which international issues have traditionally been discussed and decided, especially by militant politicians, generals, arms lobbyists, army planners and other warmongers. Thanks to them, a distorted view of the world that does not correspond to reality dominates the security debates. While Zuzana Čaputová spoke at the NATO summit about the need for even more armaments (as if its current 2% of GDP were not enough), the prestigious Stockholm International Peace Research Institute issued a warning on the same day that nuclear disarmament had stopped and the great powers were modernizing and expanding their armaments. While Alliance officials support Ukraine’s accession to NATO and see it as their democratic ally, independent analysts point out that Kiev is, in fact, much more inclined to the authoritarian systems we know in Russia or Turkey. While the G7 countries are furiously looking for a way to halt the boom in the Chinese economy, China calmly replies that the days when a small group of states dictated their will to the world are long gone, overwhelmed by outdated imperial thinking, and that Beijing has always believed that big or small countries, strong or weak, poor or rich are equal and that global solutions should be the result of consultations of all countries.
