There are, despite certain warmongering entities in Europe and the West, political leaders and movements that aim for peace and cooperation rather than competition and suspicion between peoples and nations (editor's remark).

Sandmark finds it essential that civil organisations and Swedish citizens maintains an open and direct contact with China: "It must be considered a civil right and a strength for our nation that not only government institutions, but also the people of Sweden and China, establish and maintain friendly contacts."

Torbjorn Sassersson, the Editor-in-Chief of NewsVoice, mentioned that some European leaders have a peaceful approach to the future of international relations, and he specifically mentioned Viktor Orbán's 2024 peace tour, which aimed to end the European war between Russia and Ukraine, backed by a Western alliance.

Hussein Askary from the Belt & Road Institute in Sweden stated that peace, economic development, and cooperation should coexist in a symbiotic relationship. There can be no peace and security in a world of misery, zero-sum games and conflict over so-called 'limited resources'.

Agneta Norberg, a Board member of the Global Network Against Weapons and Nuclear Power in Space and a former chairwoman of the Swedish Peace Council, who has visited CPAPD in China, highlighted the problems associated with the ongoing arms race in space.

Johan Nordquist, a retired entrepreneur, author, and recurring speaker on peace, said that the only thing politicians need to do is to speak the truth.

The Schiller Institute board member, Kjell Lundkvist, reported on how the Schiller Institute promotes peace through the "Ten Principles of a New International Security and Development Architecture" by Helga Zepp-LaRouche.

"Internationally, these days, the Institute is in a significant mobilisation in the US and internationally to stop any desperate use of limited nuclear war against both Iran and Russia."

In less than two weeks, on July 4, there will be an annual meeting in Stockholm against the US wars of aggression.
