cities of peace in Countries subject to Global Sanctions

NOTE FROM THE CHAIR OF CITIES OF PEACE, INC.

The City of Peace ideal is thousands of years old. Peacemakers in virtually every country in the world yearn for the peace that is given deep hope through that ideal. International Cities of Peace is often contacted by peacemakers in countries under comprehensive and/or selective U.S., E.U, U.N. and/or other sanction policies: Iran, Cuba, Syria, North Korea, Sudan, Russia, Yemen, Belarus, Venezuela, China, and regions of Ukraine, the intricate web of sanctions goes on and on. International Cities of Peace does not accept or send funds from or to any pervasively sanctioned countries. Hopefully, sanctions prevent “hot” wars, at least that is the intention. However, we must keep channels open for talk between peacemakers. We must encourage all peacemakers. It is the mission of International Cities of Peace to be an important part in the establishment of future peace. As we ensure that our organization does not abridge sanctions, we will continue to foster citizen-to-citizen diplomacy and keep our attention toward the promotion of the ancient and hallowed City of Peace ideal. Onward to that end, worldwide.
