Joint statement moved by the Russian Communist Workers' Party and the Communist Party of the Russian Federation at the international meeting of communist and workers' parties in Havana 

The Struggle Against USA and NATO Imperialism which Seek World Hegemony is the Key Task of the Progressive Forces

The peoples of the world are witnessing a rapid sharpening of the general crisis of capitalism. Unable to cope with the growing contradictions, imperialism is becoming ever more dangerous for humankind. It resorts ever more often to provocations and conflicts. Its actions threaten a new world war and the use of nuclear weapons.
    In fact the war, as armed struggle of classes, nations or states, has been waged since 2014 when the Kiev Nazis launched a punitive operation against the population of Donbass. People were being killed for wanting to speak their native Russian tongue, refusing to recognize collaborators with Hitler’s Nazism as heroes, to destroy Soviet monuments and sever their links with Russia.
    Today more than fifty predator-countries, organized and directed by US-led NATO, are using Ukrainian followers of Banderaites, allies of Hitler, to pursue a policy of Fascist expansion vis-à-vis Russia. Combined political, financial, economic and military resources of world capital, including the human resources of mercenaries, have been committed to the suppression and dismemberment of Russia. The objective is characteristic of big capital: eliminating competition and re-dividing spheres of influence. Above all in Europe. The aim is to establish world hegemony of the USA in the 21st century with active and overt use of fascism.
    The Communist and Workers’ Parties support the just anti-fascist struggle of the working people of Donbass backed by the Russian Armed Forces. We come out against the US imperialism which is using Fascist methods in its foreign policy and, with direct participation of NATO, is in fact waging a war aimed at defeating Russia with the hands of the puppet bourgeois-nationalist Ukrainian regime.
    We declare that we will do all we can to prevent Russia from repeating the fate of Yugoslavia, Iraq or Libya, which is starkly at odds with the interests of the world workers’ movement. Reaction seeks to establish its new order firmly and for long. Russia cannot afford to lose the war against Nazism.
    We voice our categorical protest against the policy of fascism, anti-Sovietism and Russophobia in all the EU and NATO countries. We protest against the aggression unleashed against Russia by the USA and NATO with the hands of Ukraine’s Nazis. We express our resolute solidarity with the communists and all the working people of Ukraine and Russia. We declare our determination to fight the resurgent brown plague firmly and aggressively.
The communist position is invariable: it is only by putting an end to capitalism that an end can be put to Fascism and the threat of a world nuclear war.
We will dedicate our activity and our lives to this struggle.
Proletarians of all lands, unite!

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...

Stop Trump’s Bid for World Domination!

By Gennady Zyuganov Chairman of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (CPRF)   The beginning of the New Year began with President Trump casting aside the mask of peacemaker and showed that his real aim is blackmail and world domination. Indeed, he turns out to be a more aggressive American leader than his predecessor Biden whom Trump fiercely criticised precisely for his foreign policy adventures. After the attack on Venezuela and an unprecedented kidnapping of the country’s president, Nicolas Maduro, Trump, flushed with the seeming ease of his “victory” declared the whole of Latin America to be his property. He forbade the countries of Europe and Asia to do any independent business on that continent. Simultaneously he issued a warning that Mexico, Cuba and Columbia could become the next victims of aggression.  Mr Trump clearly does not intend to stop with Latin America. In Asia he has acted as the chief accomplice of Israel’s attack on Iran. In Africa, he green-lighte...

IUAFS endorses Your Party Grassroots Left slate

 Recently, International Ukraine Anti-Fascist Solidarity (IUAFS) voted to give its endorsement to the Grassroots Left slate in Your Party, the new party initiated last July by Zarah Sultana and Jeremy Corbyn. IUAFS is a United Front campaign of Communist and Socialist groups and individuals who mobilise against NATO's Ukraine proxy war in explicit solidarity with the people of Donbass and Crimea, and the oppressed Russian-speaking population of Ukraine more generally. We solidarise particuarly with the struggle of that population against the powerful Nazi trends that NATO has bankrolled and armed in Ukraine particuarly since the Maidan coup in 2014 - hence we support Russia's war aims of the liberation of the Russian-speaking population in the South-East from Nazi oppression, and the demilitarisation and denazification of Ukraine. Your Party members are now voting in its first elections for the Central Executive Committee - the party leadership, and what is actutally happening ...
