Dutch activists take over the torch

The past half year, Ireland has been presiding the European Union. From next thursday, July the 1st, untill the end of 2004, the Netherlands are presiding. Dutch activists, anarchists and others are planning protests. They can be helped a lot by hearing from similar protests at the summits in Ireland. Also would it be great to get all the available information about the exact content and decisions in the Irish summits.

These are the upcoming anti-summits:

2-4 july, ministers gathering on economic competition held in Maastricht, anti-summit organised by rethinkcollective, http://www.rethinkcollective.org
Only informative, no actions or demonstrations planned.

16-18 july, ministers gathering on environment, held in Maastricht. anti-summit organised by milieudefensie, the dutch branch of friends of the earth. http://www.milieudefensie.nl/klimaat
Mostly informative, one action.

18 september, ministers gathering on defence/warfare, held in Noordwijk. Anti-summit organised by a temporary activist coalition called "omega establishment team". http://www.defensietop.tk (soon more of the information on that site in English).
The anti-summit will be a creative autonomous protest with the possibility to bring in own 'battle-groups'. We'd like to know where the previous defence-summit in Ireland was about, what decisions were made, etc. If there were protests at that summit, we'd like to get in touch with the people that organized it! If you know which organizations/people were involved, please let them know that we're trying to get in touch with them! mail to [email protected]

10 november,ministers gathering on integration/migration, anti-summit organized by the n10-coalition, including the youth branch of the green party, socialist groups and autonomous groups. http://www.n10.nl
Probably informative gathering and demonstration.
