Militarism and repression
We stand with all human rights defenders.
The global arms trade supports repressive regimes, fuels wars and armed violence, and reinforces global oppression and inequality. Mining corporations extract minerals and metals across the Global South – and use armed forces to repress opposition. We pressure the UK government to stop UK arms exports to human rights abusing regimes, and hold UK-based mining corporations to account for the violence they inflict on communities.
