First September International Day of Struggle against Fascism and War!

Call from ICOG for Anti-War Day 2025: August 10, 2025; The Rumours of War are becoming a reality as always. Will we ever learn!!! The anticipated meeting between President Vladimir Putin and President Donald Trump over the Ukraine War continues to remind us of the danger of a 3rd World War and the possibility of the use of the Nuclear Weapons in this War. The War has intensified over the recent period. This is so because in Europe, the military alliance NATO and Russia, the leading nuclear powers are at logger heads bitterly confronting each other in a War that is all about the sphere of influence and the race to accessing raw materials in the region for their imperialist ambitions and agenda. This is an Imperialist War!
