World Federation of Democratic Youth


100 days ago we launched our campaign to free Mikhail and Alexander Kononovich, our Ukrainian comrades who were abducted and brutally tortured by the Ukrainian regressive regime.

We at the World Federation of Democratic Youth, are following with great concern this ongoing arrest, which we call kidnapping under false accusations and without the minimum human rights to call a lawyer.

We reaffirm that the suffering of comrades Kononovich will be the responsibility of both the Ukrainian government and the imperialists of NATO, the European Union and the United States, who support this criminal regime. Therefore, we demand their immediate release and call for increased solidarity to stop the injustice of the abduction of comrades Mikhail and Alexander Kononovich.

Ukraine: A Search for Identity and Freedom

by John Maryon Russians, Ukrainians and Belarusians are predominantly from the East Slav sub-group of the Slavic people.  Crimean Tatars form an important ethnic group of the population of Crimea.  The fertile lands of mineral rich Ukraine were for centuries shared between the Poles and the Mongols.  By 1500 the Ottoman empire had expanded and taken over South East Ukraine and Crimea.  In 1654, following years of conflict with the Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth, the Cossack leader of Ukraine pledged allegiance to the Czardom of Russia in exchange of protection. Russian influence increased and in 1797 Catherine the Great established the port city of Odessa and the region became an important part of the Russian Empire.  Today most people have heard of the Crimean War, Florence Nightingale, Balaclava and the Charge of the Light Brigade.   It was an imperialist conflict for Middle East influence between Russia and an alliance of France, Britain and Turkey....

An Outrage Against Civil Liberties!

International Ukraine Anti-Fascist Solidarity statement on the Galloways’ detention The detention of George and Gayatri Galloway on 27th September is an outrage against civil liberties and basic democratic rights, and a very sinister attack on one of the best-known left-wing politicians in Britain, and his family. It is an attack on the democratic rights of all working-class people and the labour and anti-imperialist movement generally by the pro-NATO, anti-Russian militarist and Zionist government of Starmer. IUAFS condemn this act utterly and declare our full solidarity with George and Gayatri against this sinister attack. After arriving in Gatwick Airport on a flight from Abu Dhabi on 27th September after celebrating their wedding anniversary in Moscow, George and Gayatri were picked up by armed “anti-terrorist” police. They were told “you are not under arrest, but you are not free to leave. You do not have the right to remain silent. If you do not comply and cooperate, and answer a...

On the suspension of Bill O'Brien and relations with TANA

  IUAFS statement on the suspension of Bill O’Brien from International Ukraine Anti Fascist Solidarity (IUAFS), and relations with the Truth and Neutrality Alliance (TANA) A dozen IUAFS activists have been consulted in drafting this statement, and evidence for everything in the statement is available in the form of message screenshots, meeting records and multiple witnesses. Introduction  IUAFS is a broad front campaign group made up of three organisations, The New Communist Party of Britain, Posadists in Britain and the Consistent Democrats. These organisations have different political views on many issues, but work on the basis of tolerating disagreements. However, they are all agreed on the progressive role of the Russian Federation and the People’s Republic of China in the world today, and the desire to support the eradication of the scourge of Nazism in Ukraine and the national liberation of the people of Palestine. Its members also oppose fascism and racism everywhere, a...
