Nuclear Walk To NATO HQ

More then 260 people from around the world were arrested during actions at NATO headquarters in Brussels. This was the final action of a 500 people peace march from the International Court of Justice in The Hague protesting about NATO's nuclear arsenal and the Balkan war. Despite water cannons being used on the crowd some protestors managed to penetrate police lines and retrieve information from 'the most secure building in Europe'.

The same weekend Brussels saw its first Reclaim the Streets party and an action against Monsanto's offices with 200 members of the Inter-Continental Caravan.
