Join the Palestinian Youth Movement in its campaign to demand that Maersk Cut Ties with Genocide! Maersk is one of the most profitable companies on earth, directly facilitating and profiting off of the weapons trade. We demand Maersk cut ties with Israel and end its complicity in the genocide of Palestinians.

After eight months of witnessing humanity’s worst atrocities against the Palestinian people, it is overdue that the world cut ties with genocide. I am writing to you to demand that Maersk cut ties with the US-Israeli genocide of Palestinian people in Gaza. You have the power to halt the the supply of weapons components, which have enabled directly the genocide in Gaza.
Since October Maersk has shipped hundreds of millions of dollars worth of weapons components ($300 million at least) to the top 5 global major weapons manufacturers: Northrup Grumman, Woodward, Raytheon, Lockheed Martin and Elbit Systems.
We are demanding that you end the transportation of arms and arms components.
We know that these components are assembled into complete weapons in the U.S. and Maersk is contracted by the Department of Defense to carry cargo through the Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA) and the Maritime Security Program (MSP) fleets.
We are demanding that you cut all contracts that fuel genocide.
Maersk has made claims to be a diversity and inclusion employer and aims to be carbon neutral by 2040. How can Maersk justify shipping weapons components that are destined for the mass murder of people in Gaza while claiming to be concerned with social justice and equality? The complete destruction of the entire civilian infrastructure in Gaza, the razing of farming areas and the poisonous impact of the enormous tonnage of explosives that has been dropped on the people of Gaza will have immense environmental impacts on the lived environment.
Maersk must reckon with the fact that they can never be carbon neutral until you end the transportation of weapons components and weapons. Maersk can never espouse the values of diversity and inclusion whilst actively enabling the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.
We demand that Maersk:
End the transportation of arms and arms components
Cut all contracts that fuel genocide
Enact an Arms Embargo Now

So, Maersk - are you going to listen to the demands of the people and stand on the right side of history?
