Ukraine is the battleground where the future shaping of global balances is at stake.
The U.S. is aiming for a military defeat of the Russian Federation, which would eliminate its character as a world power and reduce it once again to a land of conquest for the West, as it was in Boris Yeltsin’s time. The next step would be the political-military encirclement of China, the main danger to U.S. unipolarity.
Anti-Chinese provocations on Taiwan should be seen as part of the preparation of North American and European public opinion for confrontation with the People’s Republic of China, the main threat to the U.S. attempt to maintain world supremacy.
The increasing number of Ukrainian attacks against the territory of the Russian Federation, the attacks organized by the Ukrainian intelligence services against Russian intellectuals and personalities, the drones detonated over the Kremlin, are part of the Kiev Banderite regime’s attempt to foster a military climbdown under the illusion that it can win the war.
The Communist Party of Italy, aware of the real risk that a military escalation of the conflict could lead to a nuclear war, calls for an immediate cease-fire; an end to the sending of arms to Ukraine by the Italian and other European governments; and the start of peace talks as soon as possible, with the role and wise proposals of the Chinese government as a fundamental basis.
We communists fight for Italy’s exit from NATO and the dissolution of this imperialist military political bloc.
Internationally, the struggle is between the imperialist states that, together with their allies, are acting so that the world of the 21st Century will be unipolar led by the U.S. and those forces, of which the Communist Party of China and the government of the People’s Republic are the highest expression, that are working to build a new multipolar world balance based on new and democratic relations between nations and peoples, which favor their free self-determination and economic relations based on mutual benefit.
In this framework, the revitalization and strengthening of the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa), whose Gross Domestic Product is about 25 percent of the world’s, and their enlargement to include other countries is crucial.
Lula’s election victory in Brazil is a key step in this direction.
China and Brazil have entered into an agreement under which Brazilian exporters will no longer have to use the dollar for trade transactions with Beijing.
The BRICS are working on a new common currency.
Even though the media hides this and other such news, these are fundamental events that are laying a concrete foundation for the creation of a multipolar world.
Taiwan is not and should not become an independent state; it is part of China. Repeated provocations by the U.S. are an incitement to separatist and secessionist forces.
The PRC has always supported the case for peaceful reunification with Taiwan under the “one nation, two systems” policy through which high autonomy is granted to Taipei.
Since Beijing was admitted to the UN and joined the Security Council, the entire international community recognizes it as China’s only legitimate government.
In fact, the U.S. is challenging international legality based on the centrality of the UN.
The Italian Communist Party expresses its closeness and solidarity with the Chinese government and the Chinese Communist Party, stressing that the “one China” principle should not be questioned, and calls on the Italian government to defend this principle in all international fora.
In addition, the PCI calls on Italian social and political forces to commit themselves to defending China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, against any attempt at outside interference by extremist and separatist forces, which would only lead the world toward the abyss of a new global war.
The U.S. and its agents are capable of anything to defend the fundamental interests of imperialist capitalism, and this has been amply demonstrated throughout history and even today.
The workers and people of South Korea have experienced firsthand that “liberal and democratic principles” are trampled underfoot and drowned in blood when people demand true freedom and democracy. In May 1980 in Gwangju thousands of people, men women and even children, were massacred by the dictatorship enslaved to U.S. interests. We these days remember their sacrifice in the knowledge that only the defeat of humanity’s main enemy, U.S.-led imperialist capitalism, and the transition to socialism can ensure a dignified and free life for all humankind.
We wish the comrades and comrades of the People’s Democratic Party of Korea well. We support their struggle against the outbreak of war in East Asia.
The Korean people have the right to live in a united Korea, free from foreign domination and founded on the democracy of the workers and the masses of the people.
