Parade this morning through the streets of Cagliari - from the military command in via Torino to the port - with protest-strike of base unions, anti-militarist movements, pensioners and schools against the use of weapons and exercises in Sardinia .

“While the alert for the war that broke out in Ukraine grows, Sardinia - is the complaint of the Cobas - was used militarily with the Open Sea exercise, which this year imposed much more overflowing methods than in the past. The already shamefully vast borders of the firing ranges located on Sardinian land are crossed by military operations to the point of sacrificing 17 localities on our southern coast for the entire month of May: an exercise that not only deprives the population of the use of their own territory, not only sacrifices the economy of the island and aggravates military pollution, but exposes Sardinia to a role of prime importance as a NATO base in exercises related to the war in Ukraine ".

The same protest "against the military occupation by NATO", against "the war economy and the government of war, the sending of weapons to Ukraine, the increase in military spending" also for the Usb.

The procession crossed viale Regina Margherita, via Roma to break up in front of the port of Cagliari. The strike was called nationwide and involves all private and public employees with demonstrations also in Milan, Turin, Bologna, Genoa, Florence, Rome, Naples, Palermo.
