The wars in and around Gaza as well as in Ukraine cannot be resolved militarily. There can be no military victory that will not spawn more war crimes, more suffering, more injustices against the weakest – and, therefore, more wars.

The governments of the world’s leading powers, the United States, China and the European Union, are failing in their duty to set up a parallel Peace Process, under the auspices of the United Nations, for a Just Resolution of both wars.

DiEM25 and MeRA25, extending our Athens Declaration (May 2022), call upon the world’s progressives to demand of our governments that this parallel Peace Process begins today with a cessation of hostilities as its first step.

Any excuse to delay it constitutes a monumental service to the normalisation of war crimes and the instrumentalization of inhumanity which generates new hordes of refugees.
