The Russian Information War – How the Ukraine Question Also Affects the Middle East and Africa

However, the situation is different in other parts of the world. In India, for example, Russia is winning the information war.[4] On the African continent and in the Middle East, on the other hand, Moscow’s propaganda …

Joint statement by European Pirates and Pirate Parties International on Putin’s aggression against Ukraine

The Pirates of Europe and the world strongly condemn the actions taken by Vladimir Putin. It’s with deep sorrow that we watch the events in Ukraine unfold, and our thoughts are with the people of Ukraine, those suffering the consequences of this conflict, and those opposing the war inside of Russia. We hope for a swift and peaceful resolution to this conflict, and for the immediate end of all hostilities in the region. It is inherent for the Pirate movement to oppose war. Violence, and the motives behind them, are contrary to the ideals of freedom, democracy, cooperation, and the respect for human rights, which should be the foundations of …

Happy Birthday Pirate Parties International!

We are delighted to share that this weekend marks 11 years since the founding of Pirate Parties International! A little bit about the history: After the founding of Piratpartiet in Sweden on January 1, 2006, other pirate parties emerged throughout Europe, and later worldwide. In the same year, a loose network of these parties was formed.

In 2008, further conferences followed in Berlin and Uppsala and the “Uppsala Declaration” was adopted. Since October 2009, the PPI has the status …
