Big Demo on March 9 at the Brandenburg Gate
On March 9, 2025, Vitsche e.V. and Campact e.V. are calling for a mass demonstration at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. As the U.S. turns away from Ukraine, it is up to Europe to take responsibility. Ukraine is defending not only its own freedom but also the security and democratic values of Europe.
Recent statements from the White House mark a dramatic shift: instead of supporting Ukraine, the U.S. government is spreading Russian propaganda and undermining the sovereignty of a country that has been defending itself against Russian imperialism for three years. These developments directly affect Europe – if Ukraine falls, Europe will become unsafe and face further aggression. And without Europe’s support, the Ukrainian population faces continued terror, oppression, and even mass murder.
That’s why we are calling for a strong European response:
🔹 Unwavering support for Ukraine’s sovereignty
Ukraine must be recognized as an equal partner on the international stage. Weakening its position also jeopardizes Europe’s stability and security.
🔹 Increased military and humanitarian aid – including long-range systems like Taurus
Ukraine needs modern defense systems, financial assistance, and continuous humanitarian support for those affected by the war. Europe must deliver – quickly, comprehensively, and sustainably.
🔹 Use of frozen Russian assets
Around €250–300 billion of frozen Russian assets in Europe must finally be used to finance Ukraine’s defense and reconstruction – as a clear act of European responsibility.
🔹 Protect European security and democracy
The alliance of autocrats is growing. Europe must act in unity – against the destruction of democratic structures, against far-right and pro-Russian parties, and in favor of a common security and defense policy.
🔹 Invest in an independent, sustainable future
Russia’s war shows us: dependence on autocrats costs prosperity and threatens freedom. Europe’s response must focus on renewable energy, fair industry, and socially just mobility – financed through reforms and the abolition of the debt brake.
On March 9, we take to the streets.
For Ukraine. For democracy. For Europe’s future.
