INDIA: The stand of the Central Committee of the CPI (Maoist) On the War
of Imperialist Russia on Ukraine
The
stand of the Central Committee of the CPI (Maoist) On the War of Imperialist
Russia on Ukraine
It is 42 days since the Russian
imperialists started a war of aggression on Ukraine. The war that broke in the
form of war of aggression of Russia on Ukraine is the result of the intense
level of contention between the imperialists for geographical, economic and
military hegemony on the world and is an imperialist war. This is a cold war of
the imperialists. The US made Ukraine a bait in order to sustain its hegemony
in Europe. It chose Ukraine as a war front against Russia. Russia is trying to
fight back the US-NATO alliance in the arena of Ukraine. In this war while the
US is attempting to revive-spread its unipolar world, Russia, with its rise in
economic strength, is trying to sustain its dominant positions and to stop the
expansion of NATO that is led by the US. Socialimperialist China is in total
support to Russia in this regard. Russia is adopting tactics to achieve its
objective and end the war as soon as possible and the US is adopting tactics to
give a blow to Russia with the burden of war by dragging war as much as
possible. The terrible phase wise economic, diplomatic and cultural sanctions
of the US-NATO alliance on Russia since it declared war on Ukraine aims to
isolate it from the world, to serve its interests and, if necessary, to indulge
in nuclear war. Russia too is prepared for this in its interests. With this the
danger of World War III is looming once again.
Thousands of soldiers and thousands of
innocent people of Russia and Ukraine died in this war until now. War is
getting intense day by day. Ukraine is suffering from severe devastation. The
situation is tragic. Thirty-four lakh people left the country as refugees.
Sixty-five lakh people became homeless. Towns, schools and hospitals in these
towns were grounded. Lakhs of families are suffering with lack of food,
drinking water and medicines. War is intensifying economic crisis all over the
world. Prices are extremely rising with a stop to exports of crude oil and gas
from Russia and wheat from Ukraine. For example, in Sri Lanka the cost of one
liter of milk rose to Rs. 1,980, that of one kilogram of sugar to Rs. 290 and
one kilogram of rice to Rs. 500. People revolted to the situation and the
Rajapaksa government imposed emergency. Rise in prices led to severe inflation.
Real wages are falling. Unemployment is taking a severe form. There is a severe
fall in the purchasing capacity of the people. With dwindling living standards
of the people there is a danger of large-scale hunger deaths. The war gained
super profits to the imperialists and the people gained nothing but
destruction, economic calamity and death. It is a well-known fact that the
nature of imperialism is to displace people, to destruct economies and to
ignite never ending wars.
The CC of the CPI (Maoist) strongly
opposes the war between imperialist forces. It calls upon the worker, peasant,
middle class and all the oppressed classes and oppressed nationalities to
condemn the war. It calls upon the proletariat of the world, the oppressed
classes and oppressed nationalities to uphold the teachings of Karl Marx and
Frederick Engels that ‘the ‘working class’ do not have a country…..communists
in all places always support each and every revolutionary movement against the
existing (capitalist) socio-political system’, ‘workers of all countries unite’
and the teaching of the great Marxist teacher Lenin, ‘…Enlightened proletariat
does not support any of the horde of imperialist wolves…’ (Lenin Collected
Works, Vol-27, P335-336) and not to take the side of any imperialist
country.
“…War is a continuation of policy by
other means. Wars are inseparable from the political systems that engender
them. The policy which a given state, a given class within that state, pursued
for a long time before the war is inevitably continued by that same class
during the war, the form of action alone being changed…” (War and Revolution,
LCW, Vol-24, P398-421). Similarly, politics too are not separate from economic
factors. The intensified imperialist contention for super profits is seen in
Ukraine and East Europe in the form of war.
Whether imperialism is strong or weak,
whether it is the US, Britain, France, Germany, Japan, Italy, Russia or China
the working class need not lay its blood in their interests. There is nothing
such as good imperialism and bad imperialism. The movements of the oppressed
classes and oppressed nationalities must choose an independent line against
imperialist war in the leadership of the proletariat. They must divorce from
the interests of the bourgeoisie and the imperialists and fight in the
interests of the working class, oppressed people and oppressed nationalities.
In the era of imperialism just war only means the revolutionary war made by the
working class and its allies to seize power. “Proletarian, Communist Revolution
alone can bring the humankind out of the crises created by imperialism and
imperialist wars. Whatever kind of difficulties revolution will have to face,
or if the waves of counter revolution gain temporary victories, the working
class shall definitely achieve the final victory…” (from the Political
Resolution of the 8 th Congress of the Russian Communist Party (B) on 22nd
March 1919).
Lakhs and crores of people all over the
world including Russia are making protest struggles against the destructive war
of Russia on Ukraine and against the conspiracies of the imperialists that are
leading the world towards World War III through the sale of several deadly
weapons including nuclear weapons that kill the entire world and the deployment
of military forces. Our party supports these struggles. It calls upon the
entire party ranks, PLGA forces, revolutionary people’s organisations, the
entire oppressed classes, sections and nationalities of India to become part of
these movements. It calls upon the working class, peasants and other such
oppressed classes, oppressed nationalities and democrats to unitedly advance
these movements with the objective to root out imperialism from the earth and
establish Socialism and Communism.
The oppressed people and oppressed
nationalities of Russia must intensify their protest struggles in the
leadership of the proletariat with the demand to immediately unconditionally
stop war on Ukraine abiding to the aspirations of the people of the world and
pressurize the Putin government. The Russian armies must aim their weapons on
their own government. If it indulges in nuclear war and starts World War III,
they must learn from the great experience of the success of October revolution
of the entire oppressed classes and oppressed nationalities in the leadership
of the proletariat in the leadership of Comrades Lenin and Stalin in 1917 by
transforming World War I into a civil war, and must bring down the Putin
government upholding its legacy. They must establish a new and higher Socialist
government in the leadership of the proletariat.
The working class and the oppressed
people of the US must fight militantly with the demands to stop the expansion
of NATO military alliance in the leadership of the US, the sale of weapons to
their satellite countries and puppet/comprador governments, the deployment of
imperialist military forces in those countries, the destruction of all the
nuclear, biological and chemical weapons that ruin the world and to dissolve
NATO military alliance. If the US dares to start World War III, it must be
transformed into a civil war.
The oppressed people must fight firmly
and militantly in the leadership of the proletariat against the pro-war
policies (helping with arms, deployment of military forces, economic
assistance, political justification and other such) followed by the governments
of imperialist Britain, France, Germany and Italy of Europe, in Japan and the
new Social-imperialist force China and the world wide capitalist governments by
taking a side (either Russia or Ukraine) in the war in Ukraine and instigating
the workers and oppressed people to kill one another. If the imperialists dare
to indulge in world war, they must be buried and Socialist governments be
established in their countries.
Our party conveys solidarity to the
workers and people suffering from bombing in the entire areas in Ukraine. It
condemns the murders of civilians. It appeals to the proletariat and the oppressed
people of the world to protect the people of Ukraine fleeing as refugees to
other areas with humanitarian outlook. The proletariat and the oppressed people
of Ukraine must condemn the pro-NATO, pro-US imperialist policies of the
President of the country Zelensky who turned the country into a satellite of
the NATO, especially the US imperialists, must transform the war imposed by the
imperialists into civil war and seize state power for the existence of their
nation. The oppressed people of the country must fight against all kinds of
imperialism in the leadership of the Ukraine proletariat and achieve
sovereignty of Ukraine. Our party appeals to the oppressed nationalities of the
Republics of Donetsk and Luhansk of Donbass area of Ukraine to not depend on
Russian imperialism for their future but achieve it depending on their own
strength in the leadership of the proletariat.
Workers, farmers, oppressed people,
intellectuals and democrats of India must strongly condemn the imperialist cold
war and the war of aggression of Russia on Ukraine and raise their voice to
immediately stop war. They must support the people of Ukraine fighting for the
sovereignty of their country. The influence of war shall be very intense on
India. We must mobilize the people of all classes and sections and fight
against the destructive policies of imperialists and Indian comprador ruling
classes. We must take up people’s struggles and people’s war against the war in
the leadership of our party with coordination. We must build militant movement
against the Hindutva fascist Modi government demanding that India must leave
‘QUAD’ military alliance led by the US imperialists and to not join the
imperialist alliances. If the war turns into World War III and India joins any
side, the oppressed people, sections and oppressed nationalities of India must
condemn it. We must expose the conspiracies of the Hindutva fascists to turn
the Indian armies and the people of the country as subjects in imperialist war
by instigating national chauvinism and war frenzy in the name of fake
nationalism and patriotism. We must turn the war into civil war. We must
intensify people’s war, establish liberated areas and advance New Democratic
Revolution.
The oppressed people and nationalities
of the backward Asia, Africa and Latin American countries must fight in the
leadership of the proletariat against the war sponsored policies of the
comprador governments in slavery to their imperialist masters. If World War
starts, it must be transformed into civil war. Liberated areas must be
established in the path of Protracted People’s War and New Democratic
Revolutions be advanced.
The capitalist-imperialist system is by
nature destructive, anarchic and haphazard to the world humankind and nature.
It is the centre of socio-economic, political, military, environmental, refugee
and other kinds of crises. It throws the workers, peasants and middle classes
into unemployment and astray. It is helpless and is accustomed to unrevivable
fossil fuels (white skin, black fuel: on the danger of fossil fascism). The
oppressed people and oppressed nationalities of the world will not be liberated
without totally eradicating it. It is the task of the world proletariat to
mobilize the workers, farmers, middle class and other such oppressed classes
and oppressed nationalities and root out imperialism.
The war between the imperialist forces
that broke in Ukraine shall take the war on Yemen, war on Palestine, war on
Somalia, war on women, war on non-residential people, war of the white racists
on people of various colors, war on workers, war on democracy, war on
environment and other such to an intense level. It is the responsibility of the
international working class to transform these wars in civil wars in the
respective places. It shall be the task of the Russian working class and the
various oppressed people to defeat imperialist Russia, of the US working class
and oppressed people to defeat US imperialism, of the world proletariat,
oppressed people and oppressed nationalities to bring down the world
capitalist-imperialist system that is destructing the natural environment and
establish Socialism. Our party calls upon the forces of Socialist revolution,
New Democratic and Nationality Liberation movements going on all over the world
against imperialism that is the basis for destruction of the world to aim their
struggles united and to the workers, peasants, middle classes and other
oppressed people of the world to take up the people’s movements and people’s
wars in their countries in coordination with anti-imperialist movement. Our
party believes that we can achieve a world free of wars that can achieve all
round development only by eradicating imperialism from this world and
establishing Socialism and Communism.
