THE MAY 13, 2022 ATHENS DECLARATION

“The war on Ukraine calls for support for victims of war and a new non-aligned movement”

Within the same context, Jeremy, Ece and Yanis will field questions from the media on the broader geopolitical tensions, the cost-of-living crisis that threatens the most vulnerable, global poverty and inequality, the West’s two-tier refugee policy, and the rise of nationalist authoritarianism.
