Proletarians of all countries, unite!
Long live the
50th anniversary of the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution!
Long
live the Proletarian World Revolution! Long live Maoism!
On this Mayday we call upon the
proletariat and oppressed peoples of the world to celebrate the 50th
anniversary of the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution (GPCR) in China. In
the GPCR, as a great strategic beacon, the Mao Tsetung Thought is intensely
spread and Chairman Mao becomes the recognized leader of the world revolution and
the one who brought forward a new stage of Marxism-Leninism: Maoism.
Five decades after Chairman Mao affirmed that “imperialists and all
reactionaries are paper tigers” imperialism has descended further into its
prolonged and deep crisis, in a world evermore ridden from storms the
conditions to advance the revolution are increasingly favourable.
In the current phase of
imperialism, the brutal concentration and centralization of capital reaches
even more sharp levels. Today, 1% of the world population have more riches than
the rest of the world's population all together. With the ever greater
concentration of capital in the last five years the wealth of the 62 richest
people in the world rose by 45% while the wealth of "the poorest
half" fell by more than 38%. This “poorest half” is in its absolute
majority situated in the oppressed countries, 33% in India alone. This big
bourgeoisie are increasingly concentrated in the hegemonic superpower: five
years ago, 41% of the owners of most of the world's wealth lived in the USA …
now 46% of them. Due to the increasing centralization of capital, for the first
time since 1999 the USA will account for over 50% of the amounts transacted in
monopoly-related transactions worldwide.
At the opposite pole, around
the world there are at least 800 million people living in extreme poverty. This
poverty is expressed most acutely in
semi-feudal countries, 75% of the global masses living in extreme poverty are
poor peasants. About 750 millions have no access to clean water and 25% have no
access to electricity. Hundreds of millions of people are being brutalized by
imperialist wars, forced displacements, epidemics, starvation, and brutal
unemployment - even in countries like Greece the youth unemployment is above
50%.
Imperialism,
mainly Yankee imperialism, develops its imperialist wars of plunder and pillage
against the dominated countries, mainly in the Middle East: Afghanistan, Iraq,
Libya, Syria, Iran, as the main part of the booty of the current imperialist
repartition, in which Yankee imperialism strives to deepen and consolidate its
condition as sole hegemonic superpower while the Russian imperialism strives to
maintain their spheres of influence and its condition of being an atomic
superpower. As well as
imperialist China strives for a stronger repartition and so thereby, is getting
increasingly in contradiction with the Yankee imperialism, the sole hegemonic
power. Between imperialist countries of Europe the struggle for hegemony
(mainly between Germany and France) is not yet decided, what brings their
leading powers into distress towards the other imperialists.
The imperialist coalition led by the
USA, in dispute with Russia results in collusion to divide and rule the Syrian
nation and the whole subcontinent (as for recent agreements between Lavrov and
Kerry), is promoting all kinds of massacres and genocides in the name of war on
"terror". For this they are launching smokescreens, playing peoples
against peoples to divide the anti-imperialist front.
After more than five years of
imperialist aggression in Syria there are over 470 000 dead, nearly 2 million
people injured. In five years the country's average life expectancy has fallen
from 70 years to 55.4. These numbers add up to no less than 5,350 people who
died trying to migrate in 2015.
The sharpening of our epochs
main contradiction – the contradiction between oppressed nations and
imperialism – sharpens all the other contradictions, such as the contradiction
of inter-imperialist rivalry and the contradiction between the proletariat and
the bourgeoisie in the imperialist countries.
The transition of Russia into
an active role in the war in Syria is a part of its struggle to defend its
interests in Syria and Ukraine. As part of inter-imperialist dispute for
dominance of the region, the lackey governments of Turkey and Saudi Arabia are
making all sorts of provocations encouraging Yankee imperialism to devastate
the region even more, and to isolate and defeat Iran even more - as the episode
of the recent decapitation of Shiite leaders shows. The inter-imperialist
dispute cannot result in any benefit for the masses but instead it will deepen
the colonial and semi-colonial domination as we are witnessing in Syria, Iraq,
Yemen and Libya.
Hence, regarding the struggle
of the Kurdish people against the domination of the Turkish State and Middle
Eastern countries, we reaffirm that only the New Democratic Revolution, through
the People's War lead absolutely by Marxist-Leninist-Maoists Parties can
achieve the liberation of their people and ensure the national minorities their
unrenounceable right to self-determination – even their right to complete
separation.
Large waves of immigrants and
refugees are coming to the European imperialist countries, shaken by crisis, as
result of the imperialist war, in which these European imperialist countries
participate, and the misery and despair in which the oppressed peoples of the
Middle East, Asia and Africa are subjected. To this you have to sum the massive
unemployment on the continent, especially among youth.
These migratory waves are part of the
imperialist plunder, because the imperialists need to incorporate every year
hundreds of thousands of immigrant workers to keep their economy going in face
of the “population deficit” in the imperialist countries themselves. Germany
needs to incorporate annually 500,000 immigrants in its economy until the year
2060. But these same imperialists propagate the "immigrant threat" to
boost imperialist chauvinism among the population, promoting fascism to separate
the bulk of the proletariat from the migrant proletarians and create public
opinion for the war against the peoples and wars of imperialist aggression.
The contradiction between
the proletariat and the bourgeoisie sharpens, in the form of the contradiction
between the masses and the imperialist governments and states. Additionally the
imperialist war is "brought back home". With the attacks in Paris and
Brussels, the European imperialist bourgeoisies, starting with the French one,
pay the cost for their active participation in the war of plunder in Syria, the
imperialist interventions in Libya, Mali, etc.
While they extend imperialist war of
domination abroad, internally they wage war on the poorer masses of their
countries. Imperialism uses war as a mean to solve all sorts of problems. In
the name of the “war on terrorism”, they impose the Emergency State, repression
and militarization of the whole society, reactionary campaigns of racism and
xenophobia against immigrants' neighbourhoods.
With the policy of "adjustments
and new labor laws" they continue suppressing the long time conquered
rights by the proletariat and increasing the exploitation of waged labor.
Millions of workers, especially young people, took to the streets in powerful
protests in France and other European countries.
The proletariat, the masses, led by
communists, must organize the proletarian and mass resistance against the
internal war and resolutely undertake the preparations to turn the imperialist
wars into revolutionary wars.
To do so from the belly of the
imperialist beast, communists are constructing new Maoist Communist Parties,
making efforts to merge with the deepest masses of the proletariat, to win
ideological hegemony in the revolutionary movement in order to, in front of all
non-proletarian ideologies, mobilize, politicize and organize the most
exploited sections of the working class and the poorest masses, to prepare and
carry out through actions the beginning and development of the People’s War.
The countries oppressed by imperialism
are the storm centres and base of the world revolution. In India, the
Philippines, Turkey and Peru, the masses and the peasants, the main force of
the New Democratic Revolution, rise up through Agrarian Revolution defend their
lands, defeat the displacement plans from the countryside carried out by
bureaucratic capitalism engendered by imperialism.
In India the People's War
developed by the CPI (Maoist) has survived the encirclement and annihilation
campaigns of the enemy, imposing defeats on imperialism and all reaction, and
it is a great example for the masses of the whole world regarding the way
forward. Hundreds of millions of peasants joining the masses of Indian workers
– raised up in People's War under the direction of CPI (Maoist) – it is a great
strength for the world proletariat.
The old Indian state, headed
by the reactionary Modi clique, promotes the massacre of Adivasi peasants, mass
arrests in the countryside and in the cities, and the persecution of
revolutionary leaders and democratic personalities as part of the war on the
people in a desperate attempt to stop the revolution. Thus the Indian
reactionaries are revealing the true character of the government and the Indian
state and its fake democracy.
By developing the People's
War and joining the national liberation struggles of the New Democratic
Revolution, the CPI (Maoist) is preventing the division of the masses. They are
defeating the new revisionism; they are an example for the International
Communist Movement.
As part of the uneven
development of the revolutionary
situation in the world, the
bankruptcy of the opportunist governments in Brazil, Argentina, Ecuador,
Venezuela, etc. is part of the crisis of electoral revisionism and opens great
possibilities for the revolutionary proletarian movement.
In Brazil the deep political
and economic crisis of bureaucratic capitalism shattered the official
propaganda that sought to present Brazil as a new "rising power"
("BRICS" as a new perspective to the world, etc.). In the midst of
the economic crisis traditional and new political parties, representing
different class fractions, pitted an endless struggle to see who stays on top
of the old bureaucratic state machine. And although the bankruptcy of the
opportunist aroused an anti-communist new wave, the peasant uprisings, united
with the struggles in the cities, promise to shake up the entire old order and
raise the class struggle to new levels.
These facts unmask the new
revisionism of PCPMOVADEF/PCPMLM in Peru, of Prachanda and Avakian that want to
deny the validity of the analyses of Lenin and Mao, separating the two great
currents of the International Communist Movement: the national liberation
struggles of the oppressed peoples and the proletarian revolution, whose unity
is guaranteed by the Communist Parties.
More than ever the urgent
task of the Marxist-Leninist-Maoist movement is to fight the current state of
dispersion in the International Communist Movement, struggling for a Unified
International Conference of Parties and Organizations that are
Marxist-Leninist-Maoist. Pursuing this task will serve to establish, through
the line struggle, new levels of coordination between Maoist forces around the
world that will trigger new Peoples War's and enhance the anti-imperialist
movement under the hegemony of the revolutionary proletariat.
Celebrate 50
years of the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution!
Developed
and led by Chairman Mao Tsetung, the GCPR was the most advanced stage, the
highest level of the Proletarian World Revolution. It put forward and solved
the problem of how to lead the class struggle under the conditions of the
dictatorship of the proletariat, how to continue the revolution under Socialism
and move society to Communism after
the ascent and success of capitalist restoration in USSR (1956) and for 10
years it prevented the capitalist restoration in China.
The
GCPR, mobilizing hundreds of millions of masses in defence of the dictatorship
of the proletariat was the most shattering and overwhelming blow to bourgeois
ideology, politics and culture, arming the international proletariat with Mao
Tsetung Thought, which turned into Maoism.
Chairman Mao Tsetung established that to struggle against power
holders who take the capitalist road is the immediate task of the GPCR, however,
that the fundamental is to solve the problem of world outlook; the question is
to eradicating the roots of revisionism. Therefore we must grasp the shining
GPCR and its teachings underneath the change of ideology and in this sense
fully assuming Maoism as the key issue for the class to take power, supported
by a people's army capable of defending the New State supported by huge masses.
Fifty years after the
initiation of the GCPR the powerful east wind is continuing blowing to sweep
away imperialism from the earth. The glorious People’s Wars of India, Peru, the
Philippines and Turkey threaten to set the entire prairie on fire. These
People's Wars, despite a thousand difficulties, are proving that the
imperialist bandits are the real terrorists, the popular masses are the real
heroic builders of a new world, that imperialism and all reactionaries are
paper tigers, and that the masses are almighty.
On this Mayday, amidst a
world evermore stormy and challenging, to celebrate the GCPR is to continue
swimming against the current, challenging wind and tide in deep ideological and
political struggles to uphold Maoism in the struggle of the international
proletariat to conquer power. The Communists around the world must assume their
role with acts of war against imperialism so as to place Maoism in command and
as guide for the new great wave of world proletarian revolution and sweeping
imperialism off the face of the earth!
We celebrate the beginning of
the struggle to put Maoism as commander and guide of the proletarian
world revolution to sweep away imperialism from face of the earth, a challenge that requires to resolve the
pending and delayed task of constitution and reconstitution of
Marxist-Leninist-Maoist Communist Parties throughout the world so as to trigger
the People's War in as many countries as possible.
Down with imperialist war,
long live the People's War!
For an International
Unified Maoist Conference and a new Maoist International Centre!
Imperialism and all
reactionaries are paper tigers!
