Declaration In Solidarity With Bolivia

Declaration in solidarity with the workers and the peoples masses in Bolivia September 2008 Dear comrades, on behalf of the Joint Coordinating Group of the International Conference of Marxist-Leninist Parties and Organizations, we submit our solidarity and revolutionary greetings to the PCMLM Bolivia and the workers and people’s masses of Bolivia. By attempting to split of the provinces rich of raw material in East Bolivia, the imperialist powers headed by US-imperialism want to destabilize the situation in Bolivia and bring about the overthrow of the progressive government. Fascist gangs raided television- and radio stations in Santa Cruz not agreeable for them. Under responsibility of Leopoldo Fernandez, the Prefect of the province Pando, paramilitary fascist forces purposeful committed a massacre among small farmers and land workers with their women and children. They were on the way to the capital city of the province, to protest against the fascist attempt to putsch, in which at least 30 persons were killed and dozen’s injured. The fascist putsch failed of the fierce resistance of the working class and the broad masses. The JCG submits its warmest greetings to the heroic resistance of the Bolivarian people. Those in charge for the massacre have to be sentenced and punished! On its 3rd meeting in September 2008, the JCG confirms the „Declaration in solidarity with the workers and the peoples masses in Bolivia“ of the 9th International Conference of Marxist-Leninist Parties and Organizations, that states: „The 9th Conference of Marxist-Leninist Parties, which adhere to Mao Zedong Thought, expresses its full Solidarity and support, in a moral and material way, regarding the process of fundamental structural changes that is being advanced by the working class, the peoples and nations of Bolivia. They are striving for a constitution of a multinational state of new democracy and reject all attempts by North American imperialists and local oligarchy of fascist character to divide the country in favour of the sinister interest of the imperialists of the transnational companies.” In view of the current development, the JCG calls all the participating organizations of the International Conference of Marxist-Leninist Parties and Organizations, to intensify the solidarity with the Bolivarian workers and peoples’ masses’ struggle for freedom.
