International Days of Action Against Sanctions and Economic War
March 13 – 15, 2020
Coronavirus and U.S. Imposed Sanctions:

 

The U.S. imposes sanctions on more than 39 countries. It endangers the whole world with sanctions intended to limit access to healthcare for 1/3 of the world's population.

U.S. sanctions have significantly hampered Iran's efforts to respond to the Coronavirus outbreak, limiting access to medical supplies, test kits and information about the virus.

In Venezuela and People's Korea, sanctions are responsble for the deaths of thousands of people, primarily from lack of access to basic medicines.

Coordinated action to oppose U.S. sanctions is urgent.


On March 13-15, working and oppressed people will mobilize for actions, educational events and meetings to oppose sanctions imposed by the U.S. and it's junior partners. Can you participate?
