JOINT ANNOUNCEMENT of CPG(m-l) and TKP/ML for MAY DAY
Long
live the 1st of May,
a
day of unity, struggle and solidarity among the proletariat of al countries and
of the widely exploited masses!
According
to comrade Lenin, Mayday is a day of struggle, “a day of awakening of worldwide
workers' class consciousness”. The working class is the only consistent class
which wants the abolition of injustice, oppression, tyranny and suppression.
The working class is the most decisive class in the struggle against all
exploitation of man. Mayday has found its meaning with this political and
intellectual forming of the working class. It is at the same time a day of
solidarity that signaled the prospect of workers' power, that expressed their
will to socialism, that hailed the way towards communism.
Our time
is a time of imperialist brutality. The capitalist-imperialist system continues
its existence through the most ruthless seizure of working class and laborers
toils by a bunch of exploitative monopolies. But it is not only that. At the
same time, imperialism means war it means blood, tears, sighing and extortion
in the clutches of relentless exploitation.
Imperialism
and all reactionary states and leading classes that serve it today, advance
upon the working class and the laboring masses at large. This destructive and
provocative antagonism among imperialists, wreaks havoc all around the world.
The situation in Middle East has been transformed into a bloody confrontation
of the Western imperialists on one hand (USA, France, Great Britain) and Russia
on the other, alongside various reactionary powers in Syria and Iraq. These
vampires feed, in their effort to grasp the largest market portion, with the
blood of the laboring peoples' masses and compete over who will drink most of
the blood. Especially today, Syria and Rojawa experience the imperialists and
their lackeys' plunder. Hundreds of thousands of workers have been slaughtered
in this long-running war and millions have taken the road to immigration, as
refugees. During their journey thousands of children and women have died, while
everyone else experienced all kinds of racist and fascist practices, ending up
humiliated wherever they went.
Syria is
under imperialist invasion. Rojawa is exposed to constant threat by the reactionary
raiding by the Turkish state. Afrin has been an example of the world being
divided in exploited and exploiting nations. It has been occupied by the
Turkish fascist state with the explicit or silent support of the imperialist
and reactionary ruling classes of various countries. Afrin's occupation has
shown that the Kurds' only friends are the exploited nations and peoples.
In these
conditions where contradictions among imperialists are deepened and
intensified, there is a simultaneous spreading of tension around the world.
From Far East to Middle East, from Africa to the Mediterranean, from Central
Asia to Continental Europe, all around the world there is a widespread chaos
and turmoil.
They are
trying to turn the Mediterranean and the Aegean Sea into a blood-field for the
games of the imperialists and especially NATO's games. The Turkish and the
Greek bourgeoisie are parts of this puzzle. They intensify a dangerous game of
conquest regarding their national and chauvinist interests in the Aegean. They
are trying to inflate a false enmity among their respective peoples, by giving
rise to Turkish and Greek nationalism. The fascist state of Turkey is trying to
ruthlessly attack the people by declaring military law; on the other hand they
are trying to manage their political crisis, using their offensive policy as a
way out of it. It is in this context that they are unleashing their nationalist
and hostile strategy against the Greek and Kurdish peoples. Similarly, the
Greek government feeds this Turkish hostility. It is doing so in order to carry
out the political and financial offense of the EU and the Troika against the
people, but also in order to negotiate it place in the region under imperialist
supervision with the best of terms. Thus, the Turkish and Greek bourgeoisie
need to present the Turkish and Greek peoples as enemies.
In this
context we march towards Mayday, a day of unity of struggle and solidarity of
the working class, the laboring classes and all of the exploited masses. This
year, more than ever, it is necessary to establish a common struggle of the
working class, to establish the internationalist solidarity.
Mayday is
a day that reinforces they unity and struggle of the workers and laborers
against all kinds of chauvinism.
Mayday is
a day when the workers and laborers stand up united against the imperialist
aggression, against the exploitation and the war, against plundering and
destruction.
Mayday is
a day that projects the common outlook of the workers and laborers struggle
against the offensive and suppressive policy of Turkey's fascist regime towards
the people and against its raiding and military attacks against the Kurdish
nation.
Mayday is
the day when struggle and solidarity rise against exploitation, suppression and
injustice, wherever they may exist.
Mayday is
a day of internationalist struggle and solidarity on the basis of the workers'
class interests, with no division of language, religion, color, race or
nationality taken into consideration.
Long live
the 1st of May, a day of struggle and solidarity of the
international proletariat!
Long live
the anti-imperialist – anticapitalist struggle of the oppressed peoples and
nations!
No to war
and all imperialist interventions.
Long live
Greece and Turkey's brotherly struggle!
Long live
the oppressed peoples' struggle.
Death to
fascism, imperialism and all kinds of reaction!
