Georgian Youth for Peace and Humanity
When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.
When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.
When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.
When they came for the Jews,
I remained silent;
I wasn't a Jew.
When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.
Pastor Martin Niemöller
Georgian Youth for Peace end Humanity
We, the Georgian youth, representing the cultural and scientific community of future, declare our will to stand against the militaristic actions of Russia that has been ongoing for the last several days - causing mass bloodsheds and civilian victims.
It is our responsibility to express civil determination for peaceful world.
We want to contribute to the future of opportunities- equal for all ethnic and other minority groups in Georgia.
Let us be the rightful citizens of the world and support us to contradict AGGRESSION by PEACEFUL ACTION.
Here we declare our rights and ask for your support:
1. We ask the International organizations to qualify the resent military actions taken by Russia against Georgia as invasion of its territory
2. We urge the Russian government to quite all kinds of military actions on Georgian territory and to remove its “peace-keeping” and other troops from Georgia.
3. We request that the Russian government respected the decision of International Diplomatic organizations and quitted militaristic actions on the territory of Georgia.
4. We ask EU member countries and US to create the mixed international peace-keeping troops for replacement of Russian troops in the region
5. These hostile actions of Russian government are considered to be targeting the peace process not only in Georgia, but also throughout the world.
6. This aggression is the clear sign of disrespectful attitude to the principles of the United Nations, and thus should be followed with relevant restrictive measures from its
members.
7. We support and seek acknowledgement to facilitate peaceful and civilian processes instead of war throughout the whole territory of Georgia.
8. We, all the civilians around the world, must come together and protect the sovereignty of the single country to upheld universal Human Rights and peace.
Please, put your signature and support the humanity together with us:
