World Peace Council

O Conselho Mundial da Paz expressa sua profunda rejeição às crescentes ameaças contra a soberania da República Bolivariana da Venezuela e expressa sua solidariedade militante com o povo da Venezuela, as forças de paz anti-imperialistas e em particular com o Comitê de Solidariedade Internacional (COSI).
As recentes provocações do presidente dos Estados Unidos, Trump, coordenadas com a oligarquia local e a oposição reacionária, constituem uma violação flagrante dos princípios da Carta das Nações Unidas e uma interferência gravíssima nos assuntos internos da Venezuela.

O Conselho Mundial da Paz (CMP) denuncia veementemente a brutal escalada da violência do exército israelense contra o povo palestino em Jerusalém Oriental e Cisjordânia, que causou a morte de vários palestinos nos últimos dias. Embora não concordemos com ações cegas de vingança de qualquer lado, não podemos fechar os olhos diante da causa central das recentes tensões nos territórios palestinos, que é a ocupação contínua das terras palestinas por Israel e seu exército.

El Consejo Mundial de la Paz expresa su profundo rechazo a la escalada de amenazas contra la soberanía de la República Bolivariana de Venezuela y expresa su solidaridad militante con el pueblo de Venezuela, las fuerzas de paz e antiimperialistas y en particular con el Comité de la Solidaridad Internacional (COSI) . Las recientes provocaciones del presidente estadounidense Trump, coordinadas con la oligarquía local y la oposición reaccionaria, constituyen una flagrante violación de los principios de la Carta de la ONU y una grave injerencia en los asuntos internos de Venezuela.

The World Peace Council expresses its profound rejection to the escalating threats against the sovereignty of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and expresses its militant solidarity with the people of Venezuela, the anti-imperialist peace forces and in particular with the Comittee for International Solidarity (COSI). The recent provocations of US President Trump, coordinated with the local oligarchy and reactionary opposition, constitute a flagrant violation of the principles of the UN Charter and a gross interference in the internal affairs of Venezuela.

The World Peace Council (WPC) denounces vehemently the brutal escalation of violence of the Israeli army against the Palestinian people in East Jerusalem and the West Bank, which have caused the death of several Palestinians the last days. While we do not agree with blind actions of revenge from any side, we cannot close our eyes in front of the root cause for the recent tensions in the Palestinian territories, which is the ongoing occupation of the Palestinian lands by Israel and its army.

We have received the extremely serious news of the conviction of Saharawi activists of the "Gdeim Izik group" by the Kingdom of Morocco and their sentencing to severe punishment up to life imprisonment. We join the movements in solidarity with the Saharawi people in the struggle for their liberation from the Moroccan occupation in condemnation, in the strongest terms, and strongly rejection of the criminal process against the activists, who are persecuted for defending Western Sahara's self-determination!

The Brazilian Center for the Solidarity with the Peoples and Struggle for Peace (Cebrapaz) again expresses its strongest condemnation of the practices of the Moroccan occupation of Western Sahara, which again led to the conviction of the “Gdeim Izik” activist group to harsh sentences in a criminal process widely denounced as violating the activists’ rights as a penalty for their engagement in the struggle for the liberation of their nation.

ALL PRESENT AT THE RALLY and DEMONSTRATION ON TUESDAY 8 AUGUST 2017
AT 8 PM AT THE SACRED ROCK OF THE ACROPOLIS

WE DENOUNCE
 THE US CRIME AT HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI
 THE IMPERIALIST WARS AND INTERVENTIONS
 GREECE’S INVOLVEMENT IN THE IMPERIALIST PLANS

It is with deep concern and revolt that we are following the renewed escalation of tensions in occupied Palestine and especially in Jerusalem, where the Israeli leadership again imposes provocative measures against the Palestinian people, in flagrant violation of the agreements with the Palestinian Authority and other Arab neighbors, advancing on the Al-Aqsa Mosque's compound.

The Portuguese Council for Peace and Cooperation (CPPC) marked the 40th anniversary since it legal constitution, formalized in April 1976, with a number of initiatives, including the publication of a book from which we reproduce excerpts from its preface and introduction.
