Not one penny, not one weapon, not one man for the war!

The Parti des Travailleurs, the Workers’ Party of France, declares:

While Macron multiplies his declarations on the engagement of French troops in Ukraine, the Chief of Staff of the French Army, General Pierre Schill, has announced that the army « stands ready whatever the evolution of the international situation » and that it « is prepared for the toughest of engagements. »

Meanwhile, Macron continues to deliver arms and munitions to Netanyahu, who is continuing his genocide in Gaza.

At the same time, Economy Minister Bruno Le Maire is slashing 10 billion from public services in 2024 and has announced a further 20 billion in cuts in 2025.

But that’s not all: the government is also targeting retirement pensions, health insurance (and in particular, the treatment of long-term illnesses), and unemployment insurance.

To these attacks must be added the ones against schools, in particular the sorting of pupils into “level groups” – against which teachers, their unions and parents have been mobilizing en masse for several weeks now, particularly in Seine-Saint-Denis.

In short, this is a veritable program of war against workers!

At a time when 140 billion in dividends were paid out to CAC40 shareholders last year, and 413 billion are earmarked for the 2024-2030 military programming

law, the unemployed, the sick and the retired, as well as teachers and pupils, are allegedly costing too much!

Because we cannot fight against the march to war abroad without fighting against the class war waged at home, the Workers’ Party calls for :

■    The confiscation of the billions going to war, that they be allocated to the needs of the people!

■    Not one penny, not one weapon, not one man for the war in Ukraine!

■    Stop the supply of arms and munitions to Israel!

■    Money for schools, hospitals and public services!
