Full coffers for ARMAMENT! Full CEMETERIES for the people! Peace demo Weissenfels 18.02.2026On Ash Wednesday, despite freezing cold, numerous participants gathered for the peace demo in Weissenfels. The event sharply criticized NATO policy, Germany's rearmament, and the escalation in the Ukraine conflict. The speakers addressed Putin's warnings about Russia being encircled by NATO expansion (including Sweden and Finland). They pointed to Putin's current demands to halt expansion and praised politicians like Macron, Austrian Chancellor Nehammer, Fico, and Orbán who advocate talks with Russia. The Ukraine war was presented as a consequence of the 2014 “CIA coup”; earlier peace negotiations were said to have been sabotaged by Boris Johnson, causing thousands of deaths. Germany is not at war with Russia – only politicians like Baerbock have “declared” it. The speakers demanded: Let the warmongers go to the front themselves. Reference was made to Putin’s 2001 speech to the Bundestag offering an economic zone from Vladivostok to Lisbon, which was torpedoed by the USA. Today, there is only hatred against Russia, even though it has never invaded Europe. Severe criticism was directed at domestic rearmament: Chancellor Friedrich Merz wants to make the Bundeswehr the “largest and best ever” – a violation of the 2+4 Treaty. Already 55 billion euros have gone to Ukraine (another 70 planned), solely for weapons, not reconstruction. This burdens citizens while health, education, and care are neglected. The VAT increase (19 → 21%) again serves only the war budget. Local preparations for war (e.g., in Burgenlandkreis with civil protection stockpiles) were dismissed as absurd: “What does Russia want here? Our broken economy?” The EU was criticized as backward – sanctions and persecution of dissenters recalled the Middle Ages. International appeal: Solidarity with Cuba against the US blockade under Trump, which starves families. Comparisons to the siege of Leningrad in World War II emphasized the inhumanity. Positive note: Russia and Spain are planning aid. The speakers called for independent thinking: “Believe nothing without checking, speak out!” Propaganda media conceal the truth; freedom of speech is effectively abolished. Quotes from Brecht, Einstein, and Aristotle emphasized: organize peace instead of preparing war. Upcoming events: Commemoration of the March battles (March 22), coffee gathering with BSW (March 29), event on May 7, and the next demo on March 11, 2026, at 5 PM in Weißenfels. The demo was a clear appeal against escalation and for diplomacy – at a time when the “Security Conference” in Munich shows cracks. The activists remain active. Author: AI-Translation - АИИ | |
