On March 30, in Jardim do Infante, in Porto, hundreds of people responded to the appeal of the CPPC, CGTP-IN, MPPM and Projecto Ruído, which was joined by other organizations, namely USP, SPN, MDM, among others, in solidarity with the Palestinian people, who continue to be victims of the genocide carried out by Israel.

Also in Coimbra, on the same day, on the Santa Clara bridge, a banner painted on number 26 was displayed, demanding that peace be given a chance, and that the ceasefire be immediately observed. Palestine Will Win!

The Portuguese Council for Peace and Cooperation strongly condemns the massacres that took place a few days ago in Syria by the so-called “security forces of the new government” – in reality by members of armed groups, such as Al-Qaeda or the Islamic State, which for more than a decade have terrorized the country and committed heinous crimes against its population.

Marking the 49th anniversary of the proclamation of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) on February 27, 1976, the Portuguese Council for Peace and Cooperation (CPPC) congratulates the Sahrawi people, as well as the Polisario Front, their legitimate representative, and reaffirms its solidarity with their struggle for respect and realization of their right to self-determination.

On February 18th, a solidarity action was held that brought together hundreds of people in Largo Camões, in Lisbon.

An end to Israel's crimes, a permanent ceasefire, peace in the Middle East and freedom for Palestine were demanded – which implies the end of the Israeli occupation and respect for the inalienable and legitimate national rights of the Palestinian people, first with the creation of a sovereign, independent and viable Palestinian State within the pre-June 1967 borders and with its capital in East Jerusalem, in accordance with UN resolutions.

Cuba is subject to an inhumane economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States.

A blockade that constitutes a flagrant violation of international law and that aims to hinder Cuba's economic and social development, profoundly affecting the daily lives of the Cuban people in their basic needs.

The decision to reintroduce Cuba to the arbitrary US list of alleged “state sponsors of terrorism” by the Trump Administration – six days after its removal by the Biden Administration – aims to further tighten the siege imposed on Cuba.

The statements by US President Donald Trump, who alludes to the possibility of expelling the Palestinian population from the Gaza Strip and of the US itself taking control of that territory, are serious and deserve the clearest and most vehement condemnation of all those who desire peace and defend the rights of the people.

The Portuguese Council for Peace and Cooperation (CPPC) repudiates the objectives of today's visit to Portugal by NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. The visit is part of a tour of several member countries of this warmongering political-military bloc with the aim, among other serious objectives, of intensifying the policy of confrontation and increasing spending on arms and war, heightening the risks of a widespread conflict of major proportions.

The Portuguese Council for Peace and Cooperation (CPPC) salutes the ceasefire agreed between the Palestinian resistance and Israel, which, although limited, represents a relief in the suffering of the Palestinian people caused by the brutal Israeli aggression and for enabling access to urgent humanitarian aid for the Palestinian population of the Gaza Strip, which includes thousands and thousands of children.
