Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the TKP/ML - Ibrahim Kaipakkaya declaration

 

Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the TKP/ML: Communist Leader İbrahim Kaypakkaya is the very embodiment of courage in the face of the enemy, hope in the face of defeat, and the faith and will to triumph in the face of despair!

Workers, youth, women, and comrades of various nationalities,

On the 53rd anniversary of the assassination of Comrade Ibrahim KAYPAKKAYA, the Communist Leader who revealed the nature of the Turkish revolution and the codes of its social and political structure on May 18, 1973, we once again declare our determination to follow in his footsteps.

We are living in a historical period in which the imperialist-capitalist system is imposing war, hunger, poverty, and a futureless existence on the peoples of the world with even greater recklessness. From the Middle East to Latin America, from the Balkans to Asia, and from Africa to Eastern Europe, the peoples of the world are being targeted by imperialist aggression, war-mongering, economic ruin, and fascist repressive policies. On a global scale, the ruling classes are attempting to overcome their crises by imposing even harsher living conditions on the working class, laborers, women, youth, and oppressed peoples.

In Turkey, fascism is trying to survive by intensifying repression, detentions, arrests, torture, poverty, and disorganization. The policy of denial and annihilation targeting the Kurdish nation continues. As workers resist for their most basic rights, they face State terrorism. Youth are condemned to a futureless existence, women to male-dominated violence, and peasants to plunder and impoverishment.

The AKP-MHP clique is expanding the support it receives from the ruling classes, in parallel with the determination shown by U.S. imperialism in its regional calculations. Backed more strongly by the support of the capitalist-landlord class, this dominant AKP-MHP clique continues to intensify its attacks—using the levers of power and all its might—against other cliques, primarily the CHP, in order to preserve its political power.

The AKP-MHP clique has fixated on the goal of dismantling and undermining the Kurds’ organizational structures, resistance forces, and tools for seeking rights and struggle under the guise of a “peaceful solution” to the Kurdish national question. A policy of reform and compromise has become the main course of the Kurdish National Movement. The “New Solution Process,” which began on October 22, 2024, has served as a cover for a series of insidious and treacherous attacks that restrict the Kurds’ national rights. The “New Solution Process” has functioned as an overt liquidation process.

This process constitutes a sharp attack on the idea of “armed struggle for liberation.”

This process is a denial of the necessity of the Right to Self-Determination for National Liberation.

This process is a scheme to enslave every part of Kurdistan and even more Kurds for the sake of the Turkish Republic’s reactionary regional interests.

This process amounts to a departure from the claim of democratization and the integration of Kurds into imperialism, fascism, and jihadist reactionary forces.

This process is the continued expansion of reactionary, oppressive, and denialist Turkish national sovereignty over the Kurdish nation.

We reject the solution sought through imperialism and its lackey, fascism. Against the status of an oppressed nation imposed on the Kurdish nation, we say: Long live the Kurdish nation’s right to self-determination. The Turkish nation will not be free unless the Kurdish nation is free, otherwise imperialism and fascism will be the victors.

While the AKP-MHP clique stokes chauvinism with its “national and local” rhetoric, it has ensured the further deepening of the Turkish Republic’s structure, which is deeply dependent on imperialism’s economic and political system. This is not a choice for them but the inevitable result of their class interests. This deepening dependence has led to greater decay and corruption in politics, culture, and the economy. This subservience to imperialism has cast even more darkness, uncertainty, and a lack of future prospects over the lives of the people.

Comrades,

pc 19 maggio - L'importante e partecipata manifestazione nazionale di Milano per la Palestina - verso lo sciopero generale del 29 maggio

da ORE12/Controinformazione rossoperaia del 18.05.26

Sabato 16 vi è stata a Milano una nuova manifestazione nazionale di solidarietà al popolo palestinese indetta dalle associazioni palestinesi in Italia, dai sindacati di base, dal movimento degli studenti nelle sue diverse forme, dalle realtà di organizzazioni e partiti della sinistra rivoluzionaria e con la partecipazione di rappresentanze di partiti parlamentari o che lavorano per partecipare alle elezioni.

Questa manifestazione è stata di oltre 10.000 persone e, tenendo conto che si teneva a Milano e che quindi poteva coinvolgere tecnicamente come partecipazione larga, le realtà del Nord, innanzitutto di Milano, ma anche da Torino, dal Veneto, da Bologna, da Genova, mentre era molto difficile la partecipazione di delegazioni che provenissero da Firenze in giù e ancor meno dalle città del Sud e come città del Sud erano presenti i rappresentanti di Taranto, aderenti alla manifestazione come Slai cobas e presenti all'interno della delegazione di proletari comunisti come una delle organizzazioni politiche partecipanti.

Il corteo è stato indetto in questa data perché l'anniversario della Nakba, la più importante pagina storica dell’occupazione, deportazione, espulsione del popolo palestinese dalla sua terra che ci sia stata nella storia di questo popolo prima dell’attuale fase di genocidio, deportazione, dello Stato sionista di Israele con il sostegno innanzitutto dell'imperialismo americano e poi di tutti gli Stati e dei governi imperialisti reazionari del mondo, anche nel mondo arabo.

Quindi è una data fondamentale per il popolo palestinese perché da questa data nasce la volontà e l'aspirazione del popolo palestinese a conquistare la liberazione, l’autodeterminazione, la nascita di uno

pc 19 maggio - Dopo la manifestazione di Milano - ora verso lo sciopero generale del 29 maggio

 

......Stato palestinese “dal fiume al mare”, com’è giusto che sia e come è alla base della eroica e prolungata resistenza del popolo che non si è mai fermata, neanche di fronte al crimine rappresentato dal genocidio e dai massacri che stiamo assistendo negli ultimi due anni e che sono ancora in corso nonostante i presunti “accordi di pace”.

India: NIA Seeks To Revoke Bail Of Political Prisoner Varavara Rao - info

Mumbai City District, May 16, 2026: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has sought cancellation of the bail granted to lawyer Sudha Bharadwaj and Telugu poet Varavara Rao, both accused in the Bhima Koregaon case, alleging that they violated their bail conditions by attending an event at the Mumbai Press Club where other defendants in the case were present.

A special court on Friday (May 15, 2026) sought the response of Bharadwaj and Rao to an application filed by the National Investigation Agency seeking cancellation of their bail.

Bharadwaj was granted bail by the Bombay High Court in December 2021, while Rao was granted interim bail on medical grounds in February 2021. Rao’s interim bail was extended from time to time before being confirmed by the Supreme Court in August 2022.

The NIA claimed that both Bharadwaj and Rao had violated bail conditions that barred them from establishing communication with other defendants in the Bhima Koregaon case, or persons allegedly involved in similar activities.

According to the NIA, Bharadwaj and Rao attended a meeting held on January 19 on the terrace of the Mumbai Press Club, where other defendants in the Elgaar Parishad case were present.

The NIA alleged that the January 19 gathering was aimed at propagating the ideology of the Communist Party of India (Maoist) and discussing the future course of the “Urban Naxal” movement.

In its application seeking cancellation of bail, the agency attached a copy of the Mumbai Press Club inquiry committee report, CCTV footage of the gathering, and referred to call data records of the accused.

The Case

The Bhima Koregaon case pertains to the violence that broke out near Pune on January 1, 2018, a day after a conclave called the Elgar Parishad was organized to mark the 200th anniversary of the battle of Bhima Koregaon.

The NIA has alleged that the Elgar Parishad conclave was part of a larger Maoist conspiracy to stoke caste violence, destabilize the Union government and assassinate Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Sixteen people were arrested in the case.

But when the Supreme Court in 2023 granted bail to two persons accused in the case, it noted that the primary evidence cited by the NIA – a batch of letters – was of “weak probative value or quality”. In addition, a digital forensics firm, Arsenal Consulting, concluded that false evidence had been planted on the laptops and devices of the accused persons.

Of the 16 accused persons in the Bhima Koregaon case, 14 have been released on bail. Jesuit priest Father Stan Swamy, who was also a defendant in the case, died in prison in 2021.

Another accused person in the Bhima Koregaon case, Surendra Gadling, got bail from the Bombay High Court on May 4. However, he remains in jail as his bail application in a 2016 arson case is pending before the Supreme Court.

Bolivia. una Huelga General sacude al país

 

Bolivia. El país vive una situación revolucionaria en medio de la crisis estructural del capitalismo burocrático y las medidas antipopulares del gobierno derechista de Rodrigo Paz, quien desde que tomó protesta hace seis meses ha venido profundizando la contradicción entre el viejo Estado y las masas populares. Las protestas no han parado desde entonces, primero contra el gasolinazo, luego contra el aumento del costo de la vida, después contra la ley de tierras latifundista, y ahora también en exigencia de aumento al salario general de los trabajadores. Sin embargo, ante la incapacidad del régimen que solo sabe responder con represión y terrorismo de Estado, las masas plantean ahora como demanda central la renuncia de Paz. Desde el pasado 1° de mayo una Huelga General sacude al país involucrando cientos de movilizaciones en diversas regiones, al menos 70 bloqueos carreteros y enfrentamientos recurrentes con la policía antimotines y el ejército reaccionario. Este día 18 de mayo una megamarcha recorrió desde El Alto hasta La Paz (capital del país) generando nuevos choques entre los manifestantes y el viejo Estado dejando un saldo de al menos 57 detenidos y 4 asesinados. Los enfrentamientos de este día han sido particularmente violentos; el pueblo responde con dinamita a las balas asesinas del régimen.  El gobierno reduce la situación a una provocación de “Evo Morales” y sus seguidores. En realidad, la gran burguesía y los terratenientes no alcanzan a entender que ya no pueden seguir gobernando como antes, y que las masas no quieren seguir siendo gobernadas como hasta ahora. ¡Solidaridad total con el pueblo boliviano! ¡Viva la Huelga General!

Several Workers Murdered in General Strike in Kenya

Today a general strike in Kenya takes place, protesting mainly against the increasing fuel prices which are affecting the Kenyan people. Kenya’s Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority last week raised retail fuel prices ​by as much as 23.5% – ‌after hiking them by 24.2% last month. Today morning, roads into the capital Nairobi were blocked by striking transport workers, and in Mombasa, Kenya’s main port city, the strike raised concerns about supply-chain delays.

The general strike is underway across the major cities of Kenya. The Kenyan masses have taken to the streets and they are confronting the State and showing that they won’t retreat.

The State has responded as it usually does: deploying police and military forces to the streets. Numerous denouncements have appeared in social media, as the police and military forces are 

The State has responded as it usually does: deploying police and military forces to the streets. Numerous denouncements have appeared in social media, as the police and military forces are unleashing their repression against the people. At least two protesters have been murdered.

Netherlands-Say no to the India-EU Free Trade Agreement! Stop the Imperialist Loot! Editorial REBEL!

Activists Protest the Presence of Narendra Modi in The Hague

On May 16^th, a demonstration was held against fascist Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who visited The Hague to discuss an India-Netherlands trade deal. The action was organized by Revolutionaire Actie (Revolutionary Action), Rotterdam Front for Liberation, ILPS, and Maya Solidarity, with the support of the progressive Indian diaspora.

The demonstration took place next to the Huis ten Bosch palace, where Modi was warmly received by the King of the Netherlands for lunch. The irony that the same city hosts the International Criminal Court, a supposed bastion of justice, was not lost on the demonstrators. Speeches from Revolutionaire Actie, Rotterdam Front for Liberation, ILPS, and Indian diaspora members highlighted the multi-pronged onslaught of Brahmanical Hindutva fascism on the Indian workers, peasants, youth, women, religious minorities, oppressed castes, and oppressed nationalities like Kashmir and Manipur. The comprador nature of India’s ruling class was exposed, drawing the connection with the deal currently being negotiated and the increasing immiseration of the Indian masses. The importance of actively organizing a revolutionary movement in the Netherlands that can extend solidarity with the Indian masses was highlighted.

Slogans were raised in support of the revolution in India, for the self-determination of the Kashmiri people, and against Brahmanical Hindutva fascism and its agent, Narendra Modi. Attempts by fascist supporters of Modi, in collaboration with the Indian embassy and its employees, to intimidate the demonstrators were resisted.

Long live the resistance of the Indian and Kashmiri people!

Death to Brahmanical Hindutva fascism!

Victory to the masses in the global struggle against imperialism!
