Imagine it needs peace, but no one demands it - Demo on 21.09.2025 in Dessau-Rosslau Peace – a word that rolls off the tongue easily, yet is hard to defend. In a time when the world stage is shaped by conflicts and tensions, it seems that the pursuit of peace has not only fallen behind in politics but also in society. Only a few citizens take to the streets to advocate for it, while governments make decisions pointing in another direction.
Germany currently faces a crossroads: on the international stage, military support and armament are still being prioritized, while the war in Ukraine continues. At the same time, there is internal debate about reintroducing conscription, and repeated statements suggest that the population must become war-ready. Amid these developments, concern grows: Have we, as a society, forgotten how to clearly and loudly demand peace? Or do we feel powerless against the currents of politics?
It is a quiet dilemma. Most people long for stability, security, and a normal everyday life, yet the path to collective action – to demonstrations, to public demands – seems rocky. Those who advocate for peace stand against a flood of political decisions portrayed as unavoidable. But right now, it becomes clear how important it is for citizens to raise their voices before it is too late.
Peace is more than just the absence of war. It is the foundation for a functioning society, for a stable economy, for fair educational opportunities, and for a livable future for our children and grandchildren. As long as the majority remains silent, direction is determined by a few – and the risk rises that long-term consequences are ignored.
That is why it is time to gather courage. It is time to make it clear that we want a future not shaped by warmongering, insecurity, and economic hardship. A future in which our children and grandchildren can grow up in peace and prosperity.
On 21.09.2025 at 3:00 PM, the “DEMO for Peace and Our Economy” will take place at the Marketplace in Dessau. All citizens who want to make a strong statement are invited. The flyer reads:
"No peace without a strong economy. For the future of our children and grandchildren."
We, the Craftsmen for Peace and the Family and Economic Initiative Dessau-Rosslau, together with many companies from all over Saxony-Anhalt, call for a large demonstration for peace and the strengthening of our economy. It is about our future, not the interests of ruling politicians – We are the people.
Craftsmen and representatives of our economy will speak. We stand for:
- An end to warmongering
- A secure future for our children and grandchildren
- Reasonable schooling and training
- Tax relief for small and medium-sized businesses
- Affordable cost of living (energy, taxes, health insurance …)
- The creation of a functioning healthcare system
- A fair pension system
- Revision of the repayment terms for COVID-19 aid
Peace is not a passive good. Peace must be demanded. Join us – for yourself, for us, for the future.
