Militarism and Mining

MPI is opposed to the practice of mining company’s payments to armed forces to act as security at mine sites. This practice is especially dangerous where local communities are in conflict with the company, and is frequently associated with grave human rights violations including cruel and inhuman treatment, arbitrary detention and killings, and the suppression of civil and political freedoms.
