Ukraine War: SPÖ demands justice for victims and humanitarian help!

On February 26, 2025, a haunting speech by Petra Bayr, the SPÖ's foreign policy spokeswoman, was held on the occasion of the third anniversary of Russia on Ukraine on the occasion of the third anniversary of the third anniversary of the war of international law. "Ukraine not only defends its sovereignty, but also our European values," she said. The sad record after three years of war is alarming: 20,000 children were kidnapped, a million hectares of land are lost, thousands of women were raped, and countless schools and medical facilities were destroyed. BayR calls for those responsible for accounting, starting with Putin. It is time to request individual penalties and reparation payments for the reconstruction of the Ukraine, so OTS .

In another context, Deutschlandfunk emphasizes the complex nature of western values and warns of a simple view of these ideals as exclusively "west". At a time when the West is confronted with the open conflict in the east, the role of democracy, the rule of law and human rights is emphasized. These principles are not only the result of a geographical identity, but were achieved by historical struggles against authoritarian regimes. The historian Heinrich August Winkler recalls that the "westernization of the West" was a lengthy process and the debate about the correct use of these values is more urgent than ever. In view of the threat in Ukraine, the West is asked to no longer only act rhetorically, but to act specifically and actively against reactionary violence, as Deutschlandfunk Kultur emphasized.

It is becoming increasingly clear that the struggle is not only for Ukraine, but for universal human rights and the possibility of life in freedom and dignity all over the world. The way in which West shows solidarity is crucial - it is time for action instead of words! In a global context, this community must tirelessly occur against the threats that stand against its values and also be willing to take consistent measures in order to maintain their own integrity and that of others.
