Every $ spent on weapons is a $ stolen from our future. Yet governments continue to prioritise military spending over environmental preservation, incl. subsidising arms industry to develop & produce the next generation of weaponry.

In 2023, countries allocated a combined sum of 2.44 trillion US$ towards military endeavors, as report SIPRI . These spending levels undermine trust, dialogue and cooperation and contribute to the escalation & perpetuation of conflicts & violence.

In 2023 the total spending by all NATO members exceeded 1.34 trillion $, 55% of the world’s total.
How much more should NATO spend to deter its ‘rivals’? Isn't spending 3 times more than China & Russia combined enough? Or will the 2% of the GDP by all members do the trick?

In 2023 the world spent 2.44 trillion US$ on the military, according to new data published by SIPRI.
This sets both the response and the outcome we’re getting when dealing with the multiple crises of our time: further war, violence and injustice.

Great to see The Guardian covering the conscientious objection of Netwit Chotiphatphaisal. It is believed Netiwit could become the first person in Thailand to be imprisoned for avoiding the draft through civil disobedience.

When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

The world spent 2.4 trillion US$ on the military last year, 6.8% more than in 2022.

Far from making us safer, this spending escalates war and conflicts around the world.
