"Madam President, highlighting the effect of wars and conflicts on women and children is of the utmost importance at a time as critical as this, when wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are dragging on, severe conflicts are being fuelled, such as in the Israeli-occupied territories of Palestine, or the Western Sahara occupied by Morocco, inequalities are increasing, poverty is being exacerbated by neoliberal policies, and new threats are arising, as happened this weekend in Lisbon with the NATO summit and the adoption of its new strategic concept. In response to this, a peaceful demonstration took place last Saturday in the streets of Lisbon, organised by the ‘Yes to peace, no to NATO’ campaign, which includes more than 100 organisations. Tens of thousands of people, men and women, marched calling for peace and social justice, which is essential for security, and shouting and demanding the dissolution of NATO, nuclear disarmament and respect for people’s rights in the defence of peace. In the general strike which is to take place in Portugal tomorrow, men and women will again protest against anti-social policies. These affect everyone, but they are particularly discriminatory towards women. The protesters will demand new policies which respect the dignity of workers and promote development and social progress, a prerequisite for peace."@en1
