German communists call for street mobilisations against militarism on World Peace Day

THE German Communist Party (DKP) has called for street mobilisations across the country to mark World Peace Day tomorrow, warning the government against increased militarisation.
It has criticised the German government’s recent decision to send troops to Afghanistan amid the chaos unfolding there since the Taliban seized power earlier this month.
“The deployment of the armed forces at the airport in Kabul and probably in other places in Afghanistan is an armed combat mission. That is clear. It is also clear that this is not a mandate from the United Nations,” a party statement said.
