QUAKER MEETING at 2.30 p.m.
The U.S. is the only country to deploy its nuclear weapons outside its borders. Bases in Belgium, The Netherlands,
Germany, Italy and Turkey also host U.S. B61s, and there is a growing movement to demand their total withdrawal.
Russia has said that she will not enter into any negotiations for the reduction of tactical nuclear weapons (including B61s) until all U.S. bombs are removed from Europe.
September 25th will be the first event at Lakenheath since the abysmal failure of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Conference in May, which made it plain that civil society (that's us!) must redouble its efforts to prevent the build-up of nuclear arsenals and the acceptance of nuclear weapons as part of military strategy on the part of the U.S., U.K., the other nuclear powers and NATO.
Come and join us with banners, placards, and voices to be heard!
