Documentary event Cologne „This war does not end in Ukraine“.

On Feb. 25, 2023 in Cologne, about 120 visitors discussed with
Raúl Sánchez Cedillo and Isabell Lorey about emancipatory
perspectives against the Russian war of aggression on Ukraine in
the Kulturbunker Köln Mülheim.


In his book „This War Does Not End in Ukraine“, Raúl Sánchez
Cedillo puts the creation of new institutions at the center of
his political perspective. Against war and militarization, he
argues for a socio-ecological common, for a democratic power from
below and a constituent peace in a transformed Europe. We talk
about this with Raúl Sánchez Cedillo and Isabell Lorey, moderated
by Anja Hertz. English with German interpretation.

been a political activist in Spain since the late 1990s, working
for a refoundation of Europe through a constituent process.
