[Montenegro] Sinjajevina against the installation of a NATO military camp
In Montenegro, the mountains of Sinjajevina are threatened by the installation of a military camp supported by NATO. Strong opposition to this project has won another victory in recent weeks!
On the occasion of the Peasant and Rural Struggle Gatherings in Bure, from August 26 to September 3, one of the opponents will come and tell us about their struggle.
In the meantime, we share some of their articles with you, enjoy reading!
Solidarity with the fight against the installation of a military camp in Sinjajevina! Despite the magnitude of the power they are fighting against, they have once again succeeded in defending their mountains.
Not in Sinjajevina, not anywhere else!
Neither nuclear wars, neither wars at all!
For an anti-militarist anti-nuclear struggle!
The People Kept NATO Off Their Mountain Again !

The U.S. military had threatened to use the mountains of Sinjajevina as a training ground between May 22nd and June 2nd, together with other troops under the banner of NATO. Instead, the troops went to other locations in Montenegro but never to the mountains of Sinjajevina.
Milan Sekulovic of Save Sinjajevina credited local and international pressure — including from International Land Coalition — for this latest success in the ongoing campaign to protect Sinjajavina from being turned into a military training ground. It also may have helped that Montenegro has parliamentary elections on June 11th, and in “democracies” governments prefer not to do highly unpopular things, breaking past promises, immediately before elections.
People had most recently turned out to oppose military exercises in snowy February, but have been nonviolently preventing the planned destruction of their mountains for years.
World BEYOND War recently sent messages of solidarity from New York City. We are also working to make sure the people of Maine know what the so-called Maine National Guard is doing in Montenegro.
