Proletarians of all countries, unite!
IN CELEBRATION OF CHAIRMAN GONZALO'S BIRTHDAY AND PLA DAY
(December 3, 2024)
The
President, by creatively applying Marxism-Leninism-Maoism to the concrete
conditions of Peruvian reality, has generated Gonzalo Thought, thus providing
the party and the revolution with an indispensable weapon that is a guarantee
of victory.
Gonzalo Thought
has been forged over years of intense, tenacious and incessant struggle to
uphold, defend and apply Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, to resume the path of
Mariátegui and develop it, to reconstitute the Party and, mainly, to initiate,
maintain and develop the people's war in Peru serving the world revolution and
to ensure that Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, mainly Maoism, is in theory and in
practice its only command and guide. The general political line and its 5
elements are based on this thought, and therefore the military line as the
center.
It is the
process of the people's war that has driven Gonzalo thought, it has led it to
materialize as Gonzalo thought. It was first specified as a guiding thought,
then as the guiding thought of Chairman Gonzalo and, later, as Gonzalo Thought.
Guiding thought, II National Conference, when the party prepares to generate a
vacuum in the countryside and create new Power, that was the concrete
historical foundation. The reference to Chairman Gonzalo's guiding thought, I
Plenary Session of the Central Committee of the III Conference, which agreed on
the Great Leap, within the plan to Conquer Bases, in the people's war.
In the I
Congress of the PCP (1988) on the Military Line, he established:
Upholding,
defending and applying Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, mainly Maoism, Chairman Gonzalo
has established the military line of the Party. At the First National
Conference in November 1979, it was agreed upon as the center of the general
political line and is being developed throughout the people's war.
Chairman
Gonzalo has persistently integrated the universal truth of
Marxism-Leninism-Maoism with the concrete practice of the Peruvian revolution,
fighting and crushing revisionism and right-wing opportunist lines; applying
dialectical materialism to the question of war, so the military line also
expresses Chairman Gonzalo's philosophical thought and summarizes the laws of
war, of revolutionary war in general and of the specific laws of revolutionary
war in Peru. The military line is vital for our ideological, political,
military, economic and cultural work and allows us to differentiate the
proletarian military line from the bourgeois military line.
The
military line is the laws that govern the people's war for the conquest of
power and the defense of the same. It consists of three elements: 1) People's
War, which in our case is specified as a unitary people's war, main field,
complementary city; 2) Construction of the revolutionary armed forces, which in
our case is specified as a People's Guerrilla Army, which has the particularity
of incorporating the militia to advance towards the armed sea of masses, and;
3) Strategy and tactics that are embodied through encirclement and annihilation
campaigns and counter-campaigns of encirclement and annihilation, which in our
case is specified by applying political and military plans that have political
strategy and military strategy concretized in campaigns with specific contents.
Chairman
Mao has laid down the path of encircling the cities from the countryside and
their core, the Base Areas, taking into account that the powerful imperialists
and their reactionary Chinese allies were entrenched in the main cities and
that if the revolution refused to surrender and wanted to persevere in the
struggle, it had to convert the backward rural areas into advanced and solid
Base Areas, into great military, political, economic and cultural bastions of
the revolution from where to fight against the fierce enemy, who attacked the
rural areas using the cities, and to lead the revolution step by step to
complete victory through a prolonged war.
Based on
this Maoist thesis, Chairman Gonzalo has established the need to carry out a
united people's war where the countryside is the main theatre of armed actions,
since in our country we have an immense majority of peasant masses and there
the support bases must be built since, as Chairman Mao says: "The
prolonged revolutionary struggle sustained in such revolutionary support bases
is, fundamentally, a guerrilla war of the peasants led by the Communist Party
of China. Therefore, it is wrong to ignore the need to use rural areas as
revolutionary support bases, to neglect the hard work of the peasants and to
neglect guerrilla warfare." But, in addition, Chairman Gonzalo specifies
that armed actions must be carried out in the cities as a complement.
The
militants of the Communist Party of Peru fully and completely assume the
military line of the Party, established by Chairman Gonzalo who, based on the
highest things created by the international proletariat,
Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, has specified with Gonzalo Thought our military line,
providing us with an invincible weapon, the unitary people's war as the main
field and the city as a complement, which as the main form of struggle we carry
forward as a lit torch before the world proclaiming the universal validity of
the ever-living Marxism-Leninism-Maoism.
For this
new celebration of the birthday of our Chief, Chairman Gonzalo, and the day of
the Popular Liberation Army (EPL), there is nothing better than publishing the
document of the Communist Party of Peru: CONCLUSIONS OF THE PROCESS OF THE
ARMED STRUGGLE, whose importance and opportunity of its publication will be
understood by studying it.
The
document deals with the four years of armed revolution, the four achievements
of the armed struggle and the process of developing the people's war. The
Central Committee approved this document in which the process of the armed
struggle and the Conclusions are contained, as well as the principles to be
adhered to by all members of the party. The Party, in this regard, established:
We must
adhere to three fundamental points:
a. A single
thought, the Guiding Thought
b. A
single Line
c. A single
Direction
The four
years of the people's war and part of the background, from the Constitution,
are seen.
- The Party
to take Power.
- The
abandonment of the path.
- The
Reconstitution and the Fraction.
- The
Guiding Thought and the New Type Revolutionary Party.
- We began
to lead the Armed Struggle.
In four
years of armed struggle, four milestones have been met.
I. Milestone: IX Plenary Session, of definition,
ILA is decided.
II. Milestone: Preparation: I National Conference:
Militarization of the Party,
Military
Strategic Plan, Construction of the Three Instruments, --------
Development
of the Armed Struggle, Forging the First Company, from
the First
EEM of the Party, declaration of War and 2nd Plenary of the ---
Central
Committee.
III: Milestone: Beginning On May 17th, the Armed
Struggle begins with the Chuschi action
(at the end of May, the beginning of the Plan
is defined; 93 actions throughout that year, we began with modest actions, but
we began a peasant war; until today, 15 thousand actions. In our country, the
III Moment of the SPC (Peruvian Contemporary Society) has opened, after May until
December . ILA and we began the
guerrilla war. We began a peasant war, mainly guerrilla.
IV:
Milestone: Development of the guerrilla war, it is the longest period, from
there the strategic balance and the final offensive are prepared, we enter this
long period and we begin opening Guerrilla Zones; in five months we open
several zones, we achieve eight Guerrilla Zones and five Operations Zones until
May 1981; then we begin to Deploy the War of Guerrillas until the end of 82, -
it is two
years and we fulfilled the deployment in parts: obtaining weapons and means, clearing the countryside with armed
actions and Batir II, with this we opened the Guerrilla Zones: then, the Armed
Forces came in, the reaction carried out police operations in January 81, it
was an incomplete interval; another one was done after the Tambo action, then
after the action of the CRAS (Jail) of Ayacucho.
Thus, in
September 81, in the V Plenary Session it was analyzed what to do in case the
army comes in. Then we entered the Great Leap of Conquering Support Bases, in
which the political-military strategy and the four tasks of the People's War
are defined.
We have
already fulfilled one specifically with DDC-1 and then with DDC-2 in its First
Wave. We see that DDC (Defend, Develop and Build) is politically principal and
permanent in the entire CBA-Political Strategy strategy. This year we have
fulfilled our duty to confront the army and build.
We have
achieved 15 thousand actions and more than 7 thousand in the last year. Our
armed actions have multiplied. Our revolution will rise more and more. ”
After this
celebratory presentation we put at your disposal the above-mentioned document.

membership advance by applying decapitation and resolving the contradictions
between right and left and the divergences on the left as contradictions within
the people.
- Fight the
neglect of the two-line struggle and the reduction to a single right-left
contraction in order to appear to enlarge the right and antagonize the struggle
by labeling the two-line struggle as ultra. Do not lower your guard against the
tactics used by the right: maneuvering, revoking agreements, striking,
intrigues and conspiracies, ganging up, changing targets, absolving yourself of
your responsibility, making a dirty fight by lowering it to a personal level
and not as a fight of ideas.

operations on exterior lines within the interior lines. Managing Chairman Mao's
guerrilla tactics and today the superior form of civil war: encirclement and
annihilation campaigns and counter-campaigns of encirclement and annihilation.

retreat in the fact; rigidity, narrowness, partial vision, not putting politics
in charge, prolongation in execution and lack of bellicosity. Not planning the
entire counter-campaign as a whole and varying the tactic of going around in circles
with avoiding confrontations, tendency to flee and retreat. Overcome poor

ACHIEVEMENTS
In the
political ideology. We are based on Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, guiding thought.
Guiding thought is the main thing because it is the application and development
of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism. With guiding thought we have reconstituted the
party, we have started the armed struggle and today we are unleashing it by
conquering support bases through main policies, general political line and
military line as a center.
In
construction: Concentric construction of the three instruments of the
revolution: Party-Armed Forces-United Front through the development of armed
struggle.
In Party.
With a new type of party, the militarization of the party is developed through
actions directing the revolutionary war and handling the three instruments.
In Armed
Forces, emerging from the main form of struggle, the actions and the main form
of organization, the Popular Guerrilla Army as an Army of a new type.
In Front,
creation and conquest based on support, Popular Committees, Revolutionary Front
for the Defense of the People, Revolutionary Movement for the Defense of the
People, Popular Republic of New Democracy.
III In
Direction, establishment of the direction of the revolution with the presidency
of comrade Gonzalo, which is a guarantee of triumph and expression of the
dictatorship of the proletariat.
IV Plan,
correct establishment and management of the plans of armed struggle maintaining
superior strategy. Today, specification of the campaigns of encirclement and
annihilation and counter-campaigns of encirclement and annihilation. Five
steps.
V Armed
Action, we specify the specific laws of the People's War breaking political and
military plans of the enemy, Police Forces and one year with the Armed Forces.
Based on our own efforts and supporting ourselves in the struggle of the international
proletariat and the oppressed peoples of the world.
VI On the
Two-Line Struggle, we handle the contradictions between the Left and the Right,
the divergences in the Left as contradictions within the people, averting the
split and making 90% of the militancy advance through the rectification
campaign, raising the unity of the Party in function of the armed struggle.
Fighting rightism as the main danger.

needs: democratic centralism, clandestinity, secrecy, surveillance and
discipline. Preparation and establishment of the bases for the path of the
people's war in the country.
The beginning. Great
struggle to begin the armed struggle generating armed actions and armed forces
linked to the peasantry. Main form of struggle and main form of organization.
The development of
guerrilla warfare through three steps:
1) Opening guerrilla
zones
2) Developing guerrilla
zones
3) Concretization of the
new order specified in popular committees, laws of guerrilla warfare,
development of guerrilla warfare as a strategy.
In the longest period
through which our weak forces become strong by creating support bases and
annihilating the enemy's forces.
Restoration and counter-restoration.
- Fighting the
opposition to the military line that accuses it of militarism, hoxism,
adventurism, mechanism, denying the opening and development of guerrilla zones
and the conquest of Support Bases. Slow down the pace, oppose the leaps and
capitulate due to overestimation of the enemy and focus on weapons first,
modalities that aim at a LMB (bourgeois military line).
IX. STRATEGY AND TACTICS
IV. MILESTONE
Plan to develop
guerrilla warfare, open guerrilla zones based on Support Bases.
Plan to deploy guerrilla
warfare. The three moments:
1) Conquer weapons and
means
2) Remove the field by
promoting guerrilla actions.
3) Beat to advance
towards Support Bases, link
• Important
specifications of the V Plenary Session on the tactics to be applied according
to the participation of the police forces and/or armed forces in their
different possibilities.
• Plan on the policy of
escape
• Plan to beat I and II
campaigns
Three-part plan in
cities
- Great plan to conquer
bases
Zonal plan,
reestablishment and counter-reestablishment.
- Development of
strategy and tactics, maintaining at all times a strategy superior to the
enemy. Implementation of strategically centralized and tactically decentralized
plans that (boost) the development of the armed struggle through quantitative
and qualitative leaps from the simple to the complex, applying with initiative,
flexibility and planning. Taking into account the realization of offensive
operations within the defensive war, quick decision battles within the
protracted war and operations on exterior lines within interior lines, managing
the guerrilla tactics of Chairman MAO and today the superior form of civil war:
encirclement and annihilation campaigns and counter-campaigns of encirclement
and annihilation.
- Combat the
underestimation of our forces, the failure to adhere to the centralization of
the plans by citing particularities, criteria of High Plan and retreat in the
fact, rigidity, narrowness, partial vision, not putting politics in charge,
prolongation in the execution and lack of bellicosity. Not planning the
counter-campaign as a whole and varying the tactic of going around in circles
by avoiding confrontations, tendency to flee and retreat. Overcoming poor
handling of axes. Movements, platoons, retreat points, concentration and
dispersion that leads to actions outside the guerrilla zone or support base. In
the city, overcoming the disorganization of the three-part plan.
X. CONSTRUCTION OF THE
ARMY
IV. MILESTONE
Action of the companies
targeting battalions. Detachments
People's guerrilla army:
main force, local force and grassroots force.
- At the beginning of
the 1980s, the party began to resolve the contradiction between the party and
the armed forces by specifying the main form of organization, developing the
new type of army as the pillar of the new State and through the leaps of
unarmed groups to lead the masses to the people's guerrilla army under the
absolute direction of the party following the principle "The Party commands
the rifle." Formed by workers and peasants, mainly poor peasants, subject
to the ideological, political and military construction of
Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, guiding thought. It fulfills its duty to fight,
mobilize the masses and produce. Supported by the masses and with great
intrepid spirit, thus demonstrating that what decides is the man and not the
weapons.
- Fight the tendency to
ignore the ideological, political and military construction of the new type of
army and the absolute direction of the party; sweep away conservatism in the
incorporation of mainly poor peasants and poor selection; demand the
fulfillment of three functions and advance in the good management of the main
forces, local and base, overcome amorphous formation of companies, the lack of march
of their direction, the dismantling of platoons and the postponement of
battalions. Resolve training.
ON ACTIONS; THE FOUR
FORMS OF FIGHT
I. GUERRILLA ACTION
- Collective harvests
and sowing
- Assault
- Ambushes
- Taking of towns
- Confrontations
- Destructions and
counter-restorations, strikes at critical points and overtakings.
- Campaigns of
encirclement and annihilation and counter-campaigns of encirclement and
annihilation.
- Escape
- Disturbances, tactics
of fighting in the streets.
II. SABOTAGE
- Sabotage
III. SELECTIVE TERRORISM
- Executions, popular
trials
IV. PSYCHOLOGICAL
WARFARE
- Agitation
- Mobilization
THE FIVE STEPS
1. Actions
2. Detachments
3. Planning
4. Execution
5. Evaluation
ACHIEVEMENTS
I. IDEOLOGICAL-POLITICAL
We are based on
Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, guiding thought. The guiding thought is the main thing
because it is the application and development of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism. With
the guiding thought we have reconstituted the party, we have started armed struggle
and today we develop it by conquering support bases through leading
politicians. General political line and military line as a center.
II. UNDER CONSTRUCTION
Concentric construction
of the first three instruments of the revolution: Party-Armed Forces-United
Front through the development of armed struggle.
In the party, with PNT
the militarization of the party is developed through actions directing the
revolutionary war and handling the three instruments.
In the armed forces,
emergence of the main form of struggle, the actions and the main form of
organization, the popular guerrilla exercise as a new type of army.
In the front, creation
and conquest of support bases, popular committees, revolutionary front for the
defense of the people, popular republic of new democracy.
III. IN DIRECTION
Establishment of the
direction of the revolution with the presidency of c. Gonzalo which is a
guarantee of triumph and expression of the dictatorship of the proletariat.
IV. PLAN
Correct establishment
and management of the plans of armed struggle, maintaining superior strategy,
today specification of the encirclement and annihilation campaigns and
counter-campaigns of encirclement and annihilation. Five steps.
V. ARMED ACTION
Let us concretize the
specific laws of the people's war by breaking the political and military plans
of the enemy, police forces and ... with the armed forces. Basing ourselves on
our own efforts and relying on the struggle of the international proletariat
and the oppressed peoples of the world.
VI. ON THE TWO-LINE
STRUGGLE
We handle the
contradictions between left and right and the divergences on the left as
contradictions within the people, averting the split and making 90% of the
M(ilitancy) advance through the rectification campaign, raising the unity of
the party in function of the armed struggle, combating rightism as the main
danger.
INTRODUCTION:
We are committed to
solving the problem of war. The problem of power, of revolutionary power, is
not just any power, it is that of the proletariat, the class of which we are
the vanguard, in whose ideology we are based, the class which we serve and
serve and will serve.
THE PEOPLE'S WAR IN PERU
This revolutionary war
for which the blood of the people and communists is running in torrents, this
people's war is but a part, a piece of the RM, because as Marx taught us, we
fight in various parts of the world and we will do so within and in function of
the RM.
These are our
orientations and they will continue to be so. We emphasize this, the
inseparable link with the RM because the historical circumstances, the
concatenation of events that is history itself, has placed on our shoulders the
communists in PERU, raising, defending and applying Maoism, fighting in the
first line as the advance guard of this glorious revolutionary process that the
proletariat leads.
The facts themselves
have determined that our revolution is an example, a torch, a great bonfire
that is showing the face of the earth the power of our invincible ideology: The
M-L-M, mainly Maoism (The CPSU and the CCP fulfilled an infinitely greater
task: they were the center and base of the RM) this to better understand our
greater and higher responsibility.
We are not only changing
our country but we are real hope, filled with the invincibility of the ideology
of the proletariat. Two reasons that we must take into account:
1. We are the true
transformers of our country
2. We are the shock
brigade of the RM
Very important
- About the Quota:
"The seal of commitment to our revolution, to the RM, to the blood of the
people that runs in our country destroying the old and building the new."
The quota is a small
part of the Peruvian revolution and of the RM, it is our revolution, the
greater part is caused by the reaction and the lesser part by us. They form
gaps, we soak only handkerchiefs.
The III Round is a
complete success, in this way what we agreed has become a shocking fact that
deeply shakes the foundations of the reactionary State of PERU and at the same
time its persecution in other lands is ever greater and growing. The main thing
has surpassed the inflection and is superior to the 2nd Round.
On historical optimism
(see IISP)
Our starting point must
endorse the historical optimism that we as P. of the proletariat must always
express because being creators of the new order is nascent freedom that we have
shaped by destroying the old through thousands of newly concrete actions in
almost all our country in facts that have hit the reaction hard that have made
this Government tremble particularly, the most starving and most genocidal
Government, the most demagogic Government, which we with armed action are
demonstrating for what it is.
We communists do not
believe in a reactionary dictatorship, we only believe in the dictatorship of
the proletariat created and sustained by arms and directed by the PCP.
Our predictions are
being fulfilled (see IIISP) and success for the III Cña, III Cña part of the PC
of the GS within the great PE of CB.
POPULAR CTE MAIN
ACHIEVEMENT OF THE III CÑA
P. MAO. "Power is
born from the rifle", "Everything comes from the mouth of the
cannons".
We start from a single
ideological base which is historical optimism, which is at the same time
concretized, embodied, converted into a developed fact as a transforming action
that is demolishing more and more the old order and generating the new order,
the new power guided by the P. in representation of the proletariat and linked
to the poor peasantry and the P.B. (petty bourgeoisie) in synthesis a joint
dictatorship with the other classes that concur to the same goal, it is not
about historical optimism in the abstract but in a concrete fact with our hands
mainly with our conception of the M-L-M, mainly Maoism and guided by the PG
which is the application of this universal truth to the specific condition of
our reality of this homeland of ours that is Peru.
One of the objectives is
to unite ourselves by strengthening historical optimism, promoting optimism as
a transformative weapon of class optimism MLMPG. We are carrying out the most
profound upheaval (as some reactionaries say, deep upheavals that have not been
seen since the times of Viceroy Toledo, 400 years ago). We need to start from
that opt hco (historical optimism) made concrete, embodied, reverberating
throughout the world, far from us all weakness; opt hco with our ardent growth,
beating, reverberating throughout the world.
PROBLEM OF MASS WORK
It is a difficult and
complex problem, easy to understand and difficult to apply.
Marx: "The masses
make history" The P directs them, it cannot do more, the masses must be
moved in order to sweep away the old order and not the haggling that constrains
them to oppression, to break the vicious circle of exploitation:
Marx: Easy union in the
economic struggle, wrong in the political struggle.
In more than 90 years of
movements, criteria of opportunism, revisionism, of the W (work) of masses have
been generated. However, because we develop the GP we must open the way in a
resolute way towards the proletariat, towards the working class, because it is
our class to expand IM (incorporation of the masses) with peasants, mainly poor
peasants, to open the way to the P.B., particularly the intelligentsia. P. Mao
"Without intellectuals there is no revolution." Lenin said:
"Mass work is the constant, violence is exercised when appropriate,"
but we must see the context, more than 60 years ago, Lenin did not live the
OERM (strategic offensive of the world revolution), but he is the initiator of
the new times and warned that the old world was going to sink into the most
diverse wars, we develop in the period of 50-100 years; that speaks President
Mao. The problem of war is more on the agenda and in the coming years it will
be more and more.
President Mao, this
powerfully proletarian who is not only an individual contribution, but a M-L
condensation, has given us the laws of the GP.
Our modest experience,
which is not individual either and which is in the depths of the post-war
period, WWII, leads us to the Field-City War, the unique Marxist tactic.
Differentiating the
superficial bush from the deep masses that emerge from the bottom, blowing to
smithereens everything that opposes it.
Our experience poses
questions for us. We are advancing in this. It is not going to be resolved
overnight. It is going to require enormous efforts. The new is born in the
midst of difficulties and is not born complete and perfect. We can go blindly
groping. There is no need to lament, analyze the problems. Apply solutions and
then see how reality, life denies or affirms them, corrects or eliminates them.
We are considering the
need for an investigation of the mass work of P in the GP.
We are moving forward in
the face of a complex problem, this is decisive, the entire proletariat will
never be able to be organized under capitalism, but we have to open ourselves
to the proletariat in order to win over the mind, the action of a part of us,
if we do not develop peasant work, if we do not open ourselves to the PB, to
the intellectuality, more so now that there is so much demagogy, we will not be
able to develop the GP.
In summary: the party
work, the 3rd and 4th round, has advanced and has developed and poses a problem
for us, how to develop and develop party life in GP, we have the task of RGP,
we are in consolidation IPO. The idea of mass work in the P must strengthen
us in the GP.
INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS
A great step also in the
incorporation into the MRI because we are rejoining the MCI more directly, the
problem is MLpto or MLM. PCI proposes a campaign to support the PCP GP and
proposes that the MRI publish PCP documents during the armed struggle. The MRI
proposes to study PCP documents during the reconstitution and J.M.G. the PCP
proposes to debate and study the PCP document 5 years of GP. We win, that is
beneficial.
Problem, that is not
true, everything has its process, our GP has great prestige. In the world the
revisionists spread that to maintain the revolution we must be linked to
"Socialism" (of the USSR) we are demonstrating that this is false
(because we have self-sustenance and self-determination) we are demonstrating
that there is a need to develop our own thought, the facts show that there is a
need to apply MLM and to generate our own thought, a PG that is the application
of the universal conception to reality itself. History shows that PG has always
been generated although not as a universal development like MLM.
The problems are
ideological and political and they translate into leadership problems, we have
experienced it in small parts (…,…,...).
- Importance of having a
single correct line and PG that we must take care of like the apple of our eye.
- Resonance that our
revolution has better understanding in backward countries and in advanced
countries other questions are asked. But there are also people there, there are
fighters, that opens the way to our ideology that the MLM is the axis of all
communists on earth.
Feeling the
internationalism of countries so far away that it extends from Asia through
Europe to the USA.
No revolution develops
without proletarian internationalism, which is not a problem of solidarity,
being part of a unit, a class, the proletariat, an ideology, Marxism, which is
only a process developing in great struggles. On the international level. We
have advanced, it is the rumble of the cannons that makes the deaf hear and the
blind see.
Recognition to the PCI,
the MRI and to those who support the campaign. The most important achievement
is the III cannon (1) we do not underestimate the achievement of internal life
nor the international contribution, we say that this is completely of armed
action.
