It is the first time that the Easter marches are directed against a belligerent German government. It participates in the NATO aggression against the peoples of Yugoslavia. Since the NATO began bombing Yugoslavia on 24th March, the war has escalated day by day. Although this was demented, plans for an intervention of NATO ground troops have existed for some time. This was indicated by the arrest of three US-soldiers on 1st April in the border area between Macedonia and Yugoslavia.
War is the continuation of politics by other means.
Neither does the federal government accept the right of self determination for the Kosovo-Albanians, nor does it have an interest in really protecting them from persecution. The hypocrisy of the government is accompanied by the playing down of what is, in fact, a rising threat of a world war. That is especially expressed in the sharp reaction of Russia, which broke off relations to NATO, lifted the arms embargo to Yugoslavia and keeps measures of military support for Yugoslavia in reserve. We criticize the provocation of the Russian rival by the NATO and the threat of a 3rd World War that this brings about. The strategic aim of the NATO to push back the Russian influence in the Balkans by military means is a big risk.
