NATIONALISTS ARE A BLIND TOOL FOR ZIONIST- U.S. IMPERIALISM IN ITS STRUGGLE FOR WORLD DOMINATION

Statement by the Bureau of the Central Committee of the AUCPB for Ukraine, Moldova and Transnistria

NEO-NAZI SABBAT IN LVOV
On May 9 in Lvov on Victory Day of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War over Nazi Germany, the nationalists of All-Ukrainian Union “Svoboda” (VO Svoboda) (Freedom) staged provocations against the war veteran-victors.
The Ukrainian nationalists tried to prevent people laying flowers and wreaths on the graves of the fallen, and threw stones, smoke bombs and broke the windows of buses, on which arrived the World War II veterans; they tore off ribbons from passers-by, burned and trampled on them, beat people up who refused to remove these ribbons; they snatched from his hands and stomped on the wreath of the Consul General of Russia in Lvov, Oleg Astakhov, who was going to place them him in a military cemetery on the Hill of Glory. The nationalists chanted slogans: "Suitcase-railway station-Russia", "Bandera will come and bring order ", "Shukhevych, Bandera - Heroes of Ukraine", etc. They staged confrontations with representatives of the Communist Party of Ukraine (CPU), the "Rodina" party and the "Russian Unity" party who arrived under the red flag on Victory Day. Three nationalists, members of "Svoboda", declared to Alexander Kalinyuk, chairman of the regional organization of the Anti-Fascist Committee, that they will not allow the communists and veterans to host events in Lvov, then tore off his medals and ribbons and began beating him until the militia appeared in time. Several youths burned and trampled on Red flags in front of the Lvov city council building.
On the background of events in Lvov, what went unnoticed by the general public was an act of provocation committed by members of "Svoboda" in Ternopil in the evening of May 9, when they tore off a red flag from the local office of the Communist Party, and then burned it in Glory Park at an makeshift rally. After CPU members appealed to the police about this act of intimidation, a criminal case was opened.
In the morning of May 10, the head of the Lvov regional administration Mikhail Cymbalyuk under pressure from deputies of regional and city councils of the fraction of "Svoboda" who broke into his office, handed in his resignation.
President of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych instructed the Prosecutor General's Office to establish a working group to study the events of May 9 in Lvov, which should give a legal evaluation "of the revealed violations of human rights and freedoms."
The Russian State Duma on May 11 adopted a statement in connection with the incident in Lvov on Victory Day, which condemned the organizers and participants of the "blasphemous provocation" in the days "when all of humanity gives up its absolute duty to the Memorial for Peace and Freedom, and marks victory over absolute and unquestionable evil." It was regrettable, noted the statement - that this has become possible in a country whose people made an invaluable contribution to the victory over Nazism, "shoulder to shoulder with other nations of the former Soviet Union and the Allies that saved the world from the fascist threat." The State Duma deputies are convinced that the organizers and participants of the provocation should be immediately punished in accordance with Ukrainian law.
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev during a meeting with the young parliamentarians in Kostroma on May 13 in connection with mass actions of the Nazis in Estonia, Georgia and Ukraine, said it was "evidence of immaturity of the political foundations of these countries." "God knows who the hell knows under what flag who is embracing and promoting things which would make our elders’ hair stand on end. If the dead knew – they would turn over in their grave", said Dmitry Medvedev - ITAR-TASS.
The violence that took place in Lvov by the heirs of Bandera and Shukeyvich are no accident. The neo-Nazis had carefully planned for it.
The Ukrainian authorities, fearful of the growing discontent of the masses and rapid decline in living standards, have made another attempt to flirt with the veterans.
The Zhytomyr Oblast Council, Odessa and Sevastopol city councils decided to hang the flags on Soviet Victory Day. The response to this was in the form of a statement by the Lvov regional council (05/04/2011 was) titled "Soviet myths need destroying." In the statement it says, "The Lvov regional council, see such initiatives as a conspiracy by former Soviet bureaucrats, who, disguised as Ukrainian deputies and officials in favor of Russia are doing everything to return to the totalitarian character of the state that does not exist in today's Ukraine." And further, the statement says: "Rather than honor the 10 million Ukrainians who died during the Second World War, the central government and individual local authorities are once again planning to organize noisy celebrations on May 9, the day of the so-called victory in the mythical "Great Patriotic War". Earlier, in June 2010, the Lvov city council adopted a decision "On the use of the national flag in the city of Lvov, according to which on May 9 in Lvov, the state flag will be displayed with a mourning ribbon. Immediately after the declaration by theLvov Oblast Council, there followed a similar decision by the Ternopil City Council, which imposed a ban on hanging Soviet red flags."To honor the memory of the victims, and to lay flowers at the monuments can be done with Ukrainian flags, not red flags of the empire, which led to the deaths of millions of Ukrainians. We on our God-given land should glorify Ukrainian symbols "- said Mayor Sergey Nayda. In response to these decisions, the Crimean parliament on April 20 adopted a statement condemning the practice of banning the use of the Red Banner for Victory Day celebrations.
On April 21, the Verkhovna Rada (Upper House) adopted a bill "On amending the Law of Ukraine" “On the perpetuation of the Great Patriotic War 1941-1945" on the order of official use of the copies of the Victory Banner, initiated by factions of the Communist Party, the Party of the Regions and the People's Party. According to the bill, the "Victory Banner is a symbol of victory of the Soviet people, its army and navy over Nazi Germany in WWII." The forms of perpetuating Victory and exploits of the people-victors are: use of copies of the Banner of Victory near the Eternal Flame, the Tomb of Unknown Soldier and the Unknown Sailor, public use of copies of the Banner of Victory during the commemoration of Victory Day, conducted by public authorities, local governments, organizations and public associations on Victory Day and other days connected with the events of World War II - Days of Liberation and Defense Days of Settlements from the Nazis, an official lifting the Victory Day of copies of the Sign of Victory on buildings (towers, flagpoles), along with national flag of Ukraine. 260 People's Deputies voted in favour of the bill. But the new law was not signed by the president, because he said he had “not received it” (?!).
Such a half-hearted attitude is not surprising for the Party of Regions and President of Ukraine, even if the leader of the Party of Regions inside parliament, Alexander Efremov believes that local authorities are free to decide on the use of symbolism of the war. According to him, during the Great Patriotic War "in the Ukraine, people fought under different flags."
Yes, this is true, they fought "under different flags." But the thing is, they fought on different sides of the trenches. Under the red flag they fought against the Nazis and defended their homeland against the Soviet enemy. Under the yellow-blue flag of Bandera, they fought on the side of the Nazis against the Soviet Army and mercilessly slaughtered, including, their own people.
To reconcile the irreconcilable: the red banner and the blue-yellow bloody-soaked flag of Bandera is impossible. It is unacceptable to hang both polar opposite symbols next to each other.
Such an attempt to reconcile the irreconcilable is entirely in the spirit of big capital, which, by and large, is quite indifferent to the colour of a flag. For big business and its political representatives: the Party of Regions, the regime of Yanukovych-Azarov, what is important are windfall profits along with further gain and enrichment.
That is why the clash that took place in Lvov aids the ruling regime that is trying to distract the masses from the true cause of all their troubles and misfortunes - big capital, the bourgeoisie and private property in general, trying to turn the arrows of popular discontent into the channel of clashes between workers in different regions of Ukraine on nationalistic grounds.
Now more than ever, for the working people of Ukraine, the great Marxist slogan is important: "Workers of all countries, unite!". Workers in different regions of Ukraine should unite in a common struggle against a common enemy - the bourgeoisie, the true culprits of all their troubles and misfortunes.
The same applies to Russia.
And the statement by the Russian State Duma, and the emotional speech of Russian President Dmitry Medvedev in connection with events in Lvov are partial, and completely satisfying the character of big capital of Russia.
Like over Ukraine, as a result of the anti-national criminal destruction of the USSR was hoisted the nationalist yellow-blue flag of the Nazi henchmen - Bandera, and over Russia is waving the tricolor of the traitors to the Soviet people and lackeys to the Nazis - Vlasov. In the same vein, the vein of strengthening the power of big capital and fascization of the entire political life of Russia, is the aim of the de-Stalinization campaign, waged under the guidance of Dmitry Medvedev.


VO "SVOBODA" - HEIR TO HITLER-BANDERA SHUKHEVYCH

The political party All-Ukrainian Union “Svoboda” (VO Svoboda)) was established on Oct. 13, 1991 at its founding congress and was originally called the Social National Party of Ukraine. But since this is the name is associated with openly fascist National Socialist German Workers' Party of Adolf Hitler, at the IX Congress in February 2004, the party renamed itself and called itself "Svoboda" (Freedom). At the Congress, Oleh Tyahnybok an MP in Ukraine was elected party chairman. And in July 2004, at the beginning of the presidential election race between Yushchenko and Yanukovych, O. Tyagnibok clearly expressed his political position, saying at a rally near the tomb of the commander of the UPA Klima Savur: "They were not afraid then, and we should not be afraid now, they took their guns and went into those forests, they trained and fought against those Muscovites, fought with the Germans and fought against Jidvei (Jews) and the other evil spirits who wanted to take from us our Ukrainian state ... We must give back Ukraine finally to Ukrainians. These young men and you, gray-haired, this is precisely the mixture which the Moscovites-Jewish mafia is most afraid of that is now leading Ukraine."
This position is fully consistent to Tyahnybok’s party programme.
The current program by VO "Svoboda" begins with an epigraph: "We Ukrainians. We are - in our God-given country. Grant us, O God, the victory to become the creators of a Great Power."
And in the program of "Svoboda", in the VI section on "historical justice, nation-building and overcoming the consequences of occupation" in the proposals to the Constitution of Ukraine, it states that the modern Ukrainian state "was founded back in Kievan Rus, continued by the Galicia-Volyn principality ... and restored by the Act of June 30, 1941.”
We remind the reader that on the morning of June 30, 1941, together with the advanced troops of the Nazis, Lvov was stormed by nationalists from the Nachtegal battalion commanded by R. Shukeyvich. On the eve of the war, chaplain Grinoh (UGCC - Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church) led a battalion swearing allegiance and the Banderites to the cross and the Gospel have vowed "loyalty with blood and honour" to the Fuhrer. The nationalists storming Lvov were blessed by metropolitan Sheptitsky who spent liturgy in honor of the "invincible German army and its chief leader Adolf Hitler." "We rejoice liberation of our land from that godless Bolshevism” - Sheptitsky said, referring to the warriors-nachtegalites. “From the depths of our hearts we welcome our German army liberator and its leader Adolph Hitler. I sincerely ask the Almighty for victory of German guns over Bolshevism ... Bless you, my sons, in the sacred struggle for the truth of God. In your hands is the destiny of your people and our future. Begin, and may God be with you!” And the nachtegalites with the blessing of the metropolitan of the Uniate church began to shoot, kill, torture civilians, and throw babies onto the pavements from the upper floors of houses. In the early days of the occupation of Lvov, the OUN-ites with the Nazis killed more than three thousand people of Lvov, including 70 scholars of world renown.
On the evening of June 30 1941, in the hall at the House of Prosvita gathered about 200 people - fighters of Nachtegal, OUN-ite functionaries, some Nazi officers, and individual members of the intelligentsia of Lvov. Deputy of Bandera, Jaroslav Stetsko read out a proclamation of the Act of the Ukrainian State. In the third paragraph of the Act it stated: "The renovated Ukrainian state will work closely with National Socialist Great Germany, which under the leadership of Adolf Hitler, is creating a new order in Europe and the world and helping the Ukrainian people break free from under Moscow's occupation. The Ukrainian National Revolutionary Army, which will be established on Ukrainian land, will continue to struggle together with the Allied German army against Moscow's occupation for the sovereign integrity of the Ukrainian Power and the new order in the whole world." Then, he read out greetings to the German soldiers and the leader of the people, Adolf Hitler. The meeting ended with exclamations: "Glory!" And "Heil!"
Here's on what constitutional principles, the principles of loyalty to fascism, is going to be built Ukrainian power during "Svoboda". The program of "Svoboda" is permeated with hatred for Bolshevism and Russia, and at the same time, subservience to the imperialist U.S., UK, NATO - the real masters, ideologues and architects of "Svoboda", as well as other similar nationalist-fascist organizations in the world.
Here are some provisions of the program in VO "Svoboda":
"Recognize the fact of the occupation of Ukraine by Bolshevik Russia in 1918-1921, resulting in the unprecedented genocide of Ukrainians.”
"Achieve from the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, the United Nations, the European Parliament, the parliaments of the world, recognition of the genocide of Ukrainians in the twentieth century, resulting in destruction of 20,5 million Ukrainians, a crime against humanity ...."
"To carry out a public trial of communism. Get a court order banning Communist ideology as misanthropic and such that it caused irreparable harm to the Ukrainian people. Initiate a criminal investigation into the 1932-1933 Famine that is recognized by the state as genocide against the Ukrainian people, i.e., a criminal offence for which there are no terms of limitation on the sentence."
"Eliminate and prohibit the use of imperial-Bolshevik symbols, dates, celebrations, memorials, and names in honour of the executioners of Ukraine, a mockery against the Ukrainians. Prohibit the establishment in Ukraine of any imperial monuments and symbols that celebrate the history of the occupying power."
"Demand from Moscow official recognition, an apology and compensation for the genocide of Ukrainians."
"Recognize the struggle, which until the late 1950's was carried out by the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) and Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), the national liberation struggle of Ukrainian people. Recognize the soldiers of the UPA and the underground OUN participators of the national liberation struggle for the independence of Ukraine."

VO "Freedom" is a typical petty bourgeois party, advocating for the development of small and medium businesses, creating a broad middle class. It and other national-fascist organizations like it, emerged and developed, capitalizing on the difficulties and the sharp decline in living standards of workers, due to the power of big capital. In turn, big business support and finance such pro-fascist nationalist parties, in order to use Nazism and fascism to lean on in the fight against the growing discontent of the labouring masses.

In their documents, the Ukrainian Buro of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks (CC AUCPB) has repeatedly exposed the lies and the arguments of nationalists on the question regarding the famine and genocide against the Ukrainian people during the years of Soviet power in Ukraine.
On the contrary, it was in the Soviet period that Ukraine prospered and grew into one of the most developed European countries that anti-communist and bourgeois historians were forced to accept, based on objective facts. For example, a Canadian historian of Ukrainian origin, Orest Subtelny writes: "In 1940, the industrial potential of Ukraine was 7 times higher than the level in 1913 (Russia - 9 times). Productivity rose too... Thus, if the whole of the USSR from the world's fifth-largest industrial power has become the second, Ukraine (which is on the production capacity of approximately equal to France), has grown into one of the most advanced industrial countries of Europe "(O. Subtelny, Ukraine. History, p. 354, Kiev, Lybid, 1992).
During the collectivization of agriculture and artificially engineered famine in 1932-1933 by kulaks and hostile elements to Soviet power, and also due to severe drought affecting many parts of the USSR, including Ukraine, about 640 thousand people in Ukraine died of starvation and not millions. Soviet power, the government of the USSR, the Ukrainian SSR, CPSU (B) and Comrade Stalin personally took all measures to assist the population of Ukraine. Plans for grain were supplies drastically reduced to the state fund and, conversely, the state allocated an additional million tons of grain to aid the starving as well as the opportunity to carry out spring field work, which made it possible to stop the hunger by the summer of 1933 (more on that said, in particular in the Statement by the Ukrainian Buro of the CC AUCPB entitled "Goebbels Lie", December 2005, "Workers 'and Peasants' truth» № 1 (106), 2006 and other documents of the Ukraine Buro of the Central Committee).
The peoples of all the fraternal Soviet republics rendered the workers of Ukraine invaluable aid help in rebuilding their destroyed national economy during the Great Patriotic War and helped to quickly restore its economic potential.
By the 1980's, Ukraine in terms of economic development ranked among the ten most developed countries in the world, became a space power, occupied 1-3 place in Europe in terms of production of major industrial and agricultural production per capita. Workers of Ukraine under socialism had forgotten the famine forever. With an average daily food input of 2930 kcal per person, food consumption in Ukraine (ecologically clean and not genetically modified which as a whole simply did not exist in Russia and the republics in the Soviet Union) was 3500 kcal. per person, which corresponded to the highest international standards. Ukraine's population was growing rapidly and by early 1992 exceeded 52 million people. Thanks to the outstanding Leninist national and foreign policies pursued by Stalin's leadership and genuine caring about the interests of the Ukrainian nation, reunification took place of all the native Ukrainian lands into a unified Ukrainian state, in the USSR in the interwar and postwar period included Western Ukraine (the nationalist elements of which are raised on foreign grants, including and from the Ukrainian diaspora, is now pouring tubs of dirt and lies on Stalin, the CPSU (b), Soviet power, socialism and communism), Bukowina (now Chernivtsi region.) and Transcarpathia. On October 28, 1939, the People's Assembly of the Western Ukraine adopted a Declaration on the nationalization of banks and major industries, land confiscation from landowners, monasteries and major government officials. Peasants gained 172,000 head of cattle. Industrial enterprises were reconstructed at the expense of the equipment sent from the eastern regions of Ukraine and other republics of the USSR, construction of new plants and factories took place. In 1940, the Employment Exchange was closed in Lvov: unemployment was over. In all areas of Lvov opened kindergartens, health clinics, and hospital treatment was free. People who lived in cellars, now moved to new apartments, and housing construction unfolded. The number of schools teaching the Ukrainian language grew by 10 (!!!) times. Four new high learning institutes opened. In Lvov and the region began working 1102 clubs, 211 libraries, 7 museums. Until September 1939, the city had had a Polish theatre. After reunification, the doors were flung open of Ukrainian, Jewish, Polish dramatic theatres and philharmonics. In October 1939, for the first time in Lvov, a concert of Ukrainian song and dance was hosted.
The Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, whose people, together with the brotherly peoples throughout the Soviet Union, made an outstanding contribution in the defeat of the Nazis, carried out under the leadership of the CPSU (b), headed by Comrade Stalin, along with the Byelorussian SSR and the Soviet Union as a whole, one of the founders of the United Nations.
The present-day "independent and sovereign" Ukraine (which is really an "independent and sovereign" government from its own people) has grown into one of the most underdeveloped countries in the world, and by early 2000-ies, Ukrainians, according to UN estimates have been included in the top five endangered nations on the planet. Currently, Ukraine's population, according to official data, is less than 46 million people. And taking into account those who have left to work abroad (because their "native state", under predatory privatization, has thrown millions of people on the street and robbed them of their work and a piece of bread) amounts to 7.6 million people so the population has already decreased to less than 40 million. Another 20 years of bourgeois-nationalist reforms and the program the Club of Rome will have been successfully completed, one more subdivision of the world government of Zionist capital, bringing the number of Ukrainians to 20-25 million people.
It has got to the stage that Ukraine, the former breadbasket of the Soviet Union, is now forced to import potatoes, sugar, milk, meat, buckwheat and other products from abroad. And all this has happened over the past 20 years of anti-communist rule under the yellow-blue flag of the nationalists.
This is the "human-hating communist ideology” described by today’s rulers, that was guided by Soviet power, and thus "destroyed" millions of Ukrainians so that Ukraine's population continuously grew!!?? Our republic, in the fraternal peoples of the Soviet Union was a flourishing edge: all workers had jobs, wages, free education and health; bread cost an average of 20 kopecks, sugar - 78 kop / kg, potatoes - 9-20 kop / kg, milk - 28 kopecks per liter; travel in a tram, trolley, bus, metro, 3-4-5 kop.; kilowatt hour of electricity - 4 kop., rent for a 2-3-room apartment in the month averaged 10-20 rubles, with the average salary in the mid-80's - before the start of Gorbachev's perestroika-counterrevolution – at 250 rubles per month, (and in Lvov skilled workers at LAZ, "Electron" and other leading companies, now privatized, and practically destroyed, received 300-400 or more full-length Soviet rubles, which amounts to $ 450-600 and above), and the IMF could not think of making any demands for higher gas bills or housing service charges ...
The results of this yellow-blue 20-year rule and the bourgeois reforms we've already spoken about, and they are all well known.
Adolf Hitler, the Nazis called for the destruction of communist ideology. The main enemy in "Mein Kampf" Hitler called communists and Jews, and he set out to conquer Lebensraum in the East to conquer and destroy the peoples of the USSR, first of all Slav nations: Russian, Ukrainians and Belarusians. And VO "Svoboda" and its leader O. Tyagnibok call on workers of Ukraine to fight against the communists, Russians, and Jews.
VO " Svoboda " is a typical national fascist party of Ukraine. How Hitler and the Nazis finished up is well known. The same ignominious fate awaits the Ukrainian nationalists.
In the program " Svoboda " it is required to recognize the struggle of the OUN-UPA national liberation struggle of Ukrainian people, and the OUN-UPA fighters - members of the national liberation struggle for national independence of Ukraine.
OUN was founded in 1929 in Vienna at the congress (gathering) of Ukrainian nationalists. The leader of the main wire (Staff) of the OUN was proclaimed Eugene Konovalets, a lieutenant in the Austrian army, who S. Petljura made a colonel. E. Konovalets commanded the Sich Riflemen corps, who committed a brutal massacre of the arsenal rebels in January 1918. At the end of 1929, Stepan Bandera appears in the arena of the OUN, who, along with Roman Shukhevych trained in fascist Italy in a special reconnaissance school. S. Bandera and R.Shukhevych direct the terrorist activities of the OUN in Poland (and in western Ukraine, as it was part of Poland at that time). For organizing and implementing a series of terrorist acts and assassinations S.Bandera and R. Shukhevych were sentenced by the Polish authorities. Having served his sentence, Shukhevych graduated special courses at a German military academy in Munich, and then special courses for training officers to become an officer in the Abwehr.
When the Nazis came to power in Germany, the Berlin OUN organization was included in the state of the Gestapo on the Rights of the Special Branch, and fully maintained. After the death of Konovalets in August 1939, Andrei Melnik was elected leader of the OUN, a former officer of the Sich Riflemen, a Petlura Colonel, agent of the Abwehr under the pseudonym "Consul-1”. To finance the activities of OUN, Melnik received annually from the German government 2-2,5 million marks.
In September 1939, after the occupation of Poland by Nazi Germany, Bandera was released from prison. Young OUN-ites united around him, who at the "grand assembly" of the OUN in Krakow in April 1941, Bandera was elected as its leader. The main tasks of the gathering were set: the overthrow of the Bolshevik regime in Ukraine, deepening ties with Germany, Italy and Japan as the States opposed communism; coordination of operations with the German army in the rear of the Red Army. After his agreement to cooperate with the Nazis, Bandera also began to receive from the Germans 2.5 million marks and a decent quantity of arms.
The Nazis were removed from the front after the bloody massacre by the OUN-ite Battalions Nachtegal and Roland that they carried about in Lvov, which then re-formed into the punitive police "shutsmanshaftbatalon-201”, brushed up in training and thrown into Belarus to fight the Red Army partizans.
In connection with the deployment of Soviet guerrilla movements throughout Ukraine, Bandera led by the Nazis in late 1942 - early 1943 begin to form the so-called Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), designed specifically to combat the Soviet partisans and sympathizers residents. The Chief of the UPA was the closest associate of Bandera, R. Shukhevych. For arming the UPA, the Nazis handed over to them more than 700 mortar rounds, approximately 10 000 heavy machine guns and hand, 26 thousand machines guns, 22,000 pistols, 100,000 grenades, 80,000 mines and shells, etc. The UPA fighters attacked the Soviet partizans, organized pogroms in the villages, destroyed, killed and burned. The corpses of strangled, choked, killed, hacked to death and sawn alive people filled up the water wells. Many were burned alive in their huts, their children nailed to trees alive, etc. And after the expulsion of the Nazis in Ukraine, the UPA fighters continued their bloody work, killing over 30,000 civilians and about 25 thousand soldiers.
That is the kind of "national liberation struggle" waged by Bandera, these bloody-thirsty fascist butchers, murderers of Ukrainian, Polish, Jewish, Russian, Gypsy, Belarus and other peoples.
More information about the activities of the OUN-UPA can be found in statements by the Ukrainian Buro of the CC AUCPB: "No to Rehabilitation of Banderite heirs!", October 2005, ("Workers 'and Peasants' truth» № 11 (104), 2005), "At the service of fascism. On the 65 th anniversary of the so-called Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), September 2007, ("Workers' and Peasants truth» № 10 (127), 2007) and other documents.
In foreign policy in the program of VO “Svoboda” it proclaims:
"To recognize European Ukraine-centrism as the strategic policy of the Power, according to which Ukraine aspires to become not only the geographical but also geopolitical centre of Europe."
"Stop all the participation of Ukraine in supranational Euro-Asian formations centred in Moscow: Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and the Common Economic Space (CES).
"To attract via special state programs numerous Ukrainian diaspora to lobby for Ukrainian interests in other countries around the world."
"Sign clear bilateral treaties with the United States and Britain for immediate large-scale military assistance in case of armed aggression by Russia."
"Restore the nuclear status of Ukraine in connection with violations of the Budapest Memorandum (1994), Russia (one of the guarantors of Ukraine's security) ... turn to the United States and Britain for cooperation and assistance in the nuclear program of Ukraine".
"... purge the authorities and power structures from agents of Moscow, ... to ensure the withdrawal of Russian military bases from Ukrainian territory ...".
"Demand from NATO member countries favourable conditions for Ukraine, firm guarantees and specific timing for the possible entry of Ukraine into the NATO Alliance ...".
"Develop at the level of the SNB (Council for National Security and Defense - Ed.) A program of unilateral actions of Ukraine in case of Russian non-commitments regarding the withdrawal of the Russian Black Sea Fleet from Ukrainian territory until 2017, to demand the immediate withdrawal of the Russian Black Sea Fleet from the Crimea if the Russian Federation will continue to violate the Laws of Ukraine and signed international agreements. "
As you can see, it is this anti-communist anti-Russian program that was implemented during the years of Yushchenko’s presidency,.
The program of VO "Svoboda" is fully consistent with the aims and objectives of Zionist capital and U.S. imperialism for world domination. More precisely, this program, as well as all the activities of national-fascist "Svoboda", is made in relation to the aims and objectives of the US-Zionist capital, financed, including the use of the Ukrainian diaspora and sent to them.
The demand to restore the nuclear status of Ukraine is no more than a windbag statement to lure the unconscious nationalist youth. A strong Ukraine, especially a nuclear one, is not needed by U.S. imperialism.

THE SOVIET UNION MADE THE DECISIVE CONTRIBUTION TO THE DEFEAT OF FASCISM

German fascism was nurtured and armed with the money of the largest Zionist corporations and banks in the U.S., Britain and France to destroy the Soviet Union and socialism. But Hitler disobeyed his masters and occupied almost the whole of Europe before attacking the USSR. All western countries failed to provide decent resistance to the fascist aggressors: in 35 days Poland was defeated, Denmark fell in one day, Norway, Belgium, Holland and Luxembourg were occupied. The French army resisted a total of 44 days. The British expeditionary force, suffered a major defeat by the Nazis, and was forced to evacuate the British Isles. The Nazis seized a number of countries in the Balkans. In the capitalist world, there was no force which would be able to stop German fascism.
Only entry into the war by the Soviet Union reversed the course of hostilities. On June 22, 1941, the Great Patriotic War of the Soviet people for their freedom and independence began.
The Soviet Union became a decisive force, the first to stop the aggressor and then defeating Nazi Germany and its satellites, as well as defeating militarist Japan. Already by 6 May 1942, under the influence of Red Army's victories, U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt wrote: "From the standpoint of grand strategy ... it is difficult to escape the obvious fact that the Russian army destroyed more enemy soldiers and weapons than all other 25 member states of the United Nations taken together." On January 29, 1943, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill was forced to admit: "... all our military operations are carried out in a very small scale compared to the vast resources of England and the United States, and even more so compared with the gigantic efforts of Russia."
Over 73% of the total losses the German fascist army suffered in battles were with the Soviet Army during the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. The damage to manpower in the Wehrmacht on the Soviet-German front, was 4 times more than the Western European and Mediterranean theatres of operations, combined, and the number of killed and wounded - 6 times more. The Soviet-German front was destroyed along with the bulk of the military equipment of the enemy: Up to 75% of tanks and assault guns, over 75% of aviation, 74% of artillery shells.
The Soviet Union made a decisive contribution to the liberation of peoples of other countries from the Nazi yoke. About 7 million Soviet soldiers took part in the liberation of 11 European countries, 1.5 million - in the liberation of Northeast China (Manchuria) and North Korea.
All these facts are irrefutable evidence of the decisive contribution of the USSR in the Great Victory.
The main sources of Soviet people's victory over the Nazi invaders during World War II were: the superiority of the socialist way of life and the Soviet social system over the imperial system of Nazi Germany, the cutting edge ideological and theoretical and moral superiority of the Marxist-Leninist ideology over the Nazi ideology of racial misanthropic; the advantage of the socialist planned economy, over the imperialist economy.
At the heart of the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945 were also the brotherhood and friendship between the peoples of the USSR, Soviet, proletarian internationalism and socialist patriotism, love by the people of the USSR to their socialist Soviet motherland; heroism of soldiers on the front and workers of the rear; indestructible unity of the party and the people, the superiority of Soviet military science over the military school of Nazi Germany, the talent and strategic skill of the Soviet military leaders.
The main source of the Great Victory was the entire leadership of the struggle of the Soviet people by the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks), headed by the successor and the continuer of great Lenin, the leader of the Soviet people and working people around the world, Generalissimo Joseph STALIN. One in two Communists and millions of Komsomols laid their heads on the battlefields.
The victory over Nazi Germany had been won under the red banner of Lenin and Stalin, which was hoisted over the Reichstag, and no slanderers will be able to detract from this outstanding historical fact.

TRIBUNAL AGAINST THE NATO-AGGRESSION IN LIBYA

On May 26 this year in Moscow, an International Conference "Tribunal against the NATO aggression, in Libya” was held, which was attended by more than 30 people, including the Deputy Ambassador of Libya to Russia, a delegation from Ukraine, a representative of the Communists in Slovakia, several scientists-Arabists, and representatives of the anti-globalists. Presentations were made by tele-appeals on the conference theme from the Czech Republic and Canada. The event was organized by representatives of the public organization “Veche”. Reports and about fifteen speeches were also heard. Without exception they were for the independence of Libya, support for al-Gaddafi, and sharply condemned the aggressive actions of the U.S. and NATO in Libya. The speaking representative of the AUCPB, S.V. Khristenko emphasized the actual identical nature of the objectives and methods of Hitler's fascism and current American imperialism.
The main report “On urgent measures by international civil society on organizing means to combat global aggression and compulsion to the world of aggressor states", declares-
"Today, once again is acutely raised the issue countering the aggressive behaviour of the United States, European Union and NATO on the world stage. Yesterday it was the aggression against Vietnam, Yugoslavia, Iraq and Afghanistan. Now we are talking about the open military invasion into the territory of another sovereign state - Libya. The arrogant and unceremonious violation of the sovereignty of an independent nation causes in the world community not only outrage but also fear that tomorrow the victim of brutal aggression may become any other state with resources which a global aggressor requires. The probability of Russia being on the list of potential victims is also quite high.
Unfortunately, we must note that in the world after the collapse of the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact military alliance, there is simply no active force capable of resisting such aggression. It would have seemed that the role of a barrier to aggression should have been played by the United Nations as a guarantor of international law. However, experience shows that this organization is deprived of the opportunity to provide any meaningful impact on the processes occurring in the global arena in a uni-polar world, and the UN has actually lost capacity for this. The Security Council of this organization discredited itself by Security Council Resolution number 1973, grossly violating the UN Charter itself. If in the near future the most determined efforts are not made, the only guarantor of international security in the face of the UN will be completely incapacitated and discredited ... "
In conclusion, the Conference unanimously adopted the summary document (one of which we publish below), and plans are formulated to address the critical issues:
To:
1. Organize and conduct an "International Tribunal to investigate the crimes of the U.S. and NATO against Libya, involving non-governmental organizations, political parties and Governments concerned.
2. In as much the UN for its criminal actions has completely discredited itself and made itself illegitimate in terms of preserving and maintaining peace on earth, the peoples of the world must decide what needs to be done here.
3. The Decisions offer a clear plan of action for achieving the goals, showing that the organizers of the International Conference are going to really struggle for the implementation of initiatives.

Appeal to the heads of states, political parties, public and religious figures, to all people who cherish peace and security on our planet
- To assist in the preparation and holding of a World Forum “The International Tribunal to investigate the involvement of individuals, organizations and states in the aggression against the Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, on measures of public forcing the aggressors to stop aggression and damage to persons, organizations, states, and victims of aggression.
We, participants of the International Conference on urgent action by international civil society on organizing methods to combat global aggression and forcing the world to live like the aggressor States, on behalf of the free citizens of the world, appeal to the Heads of State, the management of non-governmental organizations, political parties and social organizations, religious leaders of all confessions, and ordinary people of our planet with a proposal to support efforts to organize and conduct in the 2011 World Civic Forum an "International Tribunal to investigate the involvement of individuals, organizations and states in the aggression against the Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya and measures by the public forcing the aggressors to stop the aggression and reparation damage to persons, organizations, states, victims of aggression."
The holding of a World Civic Forum is due to the need to mobilize the world community to confront the global aggression against sovereign states, which have been carried out for many years by the United States of America, the states of the NATO military-political bloc and its military and global financial allies.
The United Nations, acknowledged to be the guarantor of international law and the inviolability of the basic principles of peaceful coexistence of nations, has failed to prevent armed incursions of the aggressors onto the territory of several independent states, thus did not meet our hopes for a peaceful future for our generation and our children.
The only force on the planet today that can stand in the way of aggression and establish peace on earth, was, is and will be the force of the self-organized community of citizens from different countries, united for the sake of world peace. Only the ordinary citizens of the world are fully interested in that there are no falling bombs and missiles filled with uranium raining down on the heads of their mothers and children. The person who realizes himself or herself first and foremost as a father and mother of their children, is genuinely interested in confronting aggression directed against both his family and the people and against the country in which he or she lives. It is we, ordinary citizens, most of all are interested in peace and stability on our planet.
The aggression unleashed by the U.S. and NATO against the sovereign state of Libya, should be halted immediately. The crimes committed by participants and organizers of the armed invasion, are subject to trial before the world civic community. The organizers and accomplices of the crimes are subject to prosecution before the international community.
We, participants of the conference call on heads of states to give full organizational, informational and material support to the World Civic Forum, as well as to consider the advisability of combining the World Civic Forum with the summit of heads of states that are potential targets of the destructive intentions of the global aggressor. At the summit, we propose to lay the foundations for a new system of relations in the world, based on the rule of the sovereignty of countries and states. The question should also be brought up on the reforming of the United Nations, which has not been able to effectively counteract the flouting of international norms and laws, or to replace the UN by a workable alternative to the international organization.
We, the participants call upon all who are interested in establishing peace on earth, regardless of their nationality and religion, to unite their efforts and inflict a decisive blow to global aggression. Let this World Civic Forum be a precedent for a new, truly democratic form of strengthening international law and equitable world order!
We urge all those who struggle in solidarity with the Libyan people against the aggressors, those who want peace on our planet, to take an active part in the preparation of the International Tribunal over the aggressor in the summer of 2011.
The implementation of this civil initiative, the holding of an extensive investigation and public court over the aggressors is possible only with your personal moral and material support.
For a world without aggression! For a world without war! For world peace!

UKRAINE - THE CLASS STRUGGLE IS AFLAME

The Yanukovych-Azarov regime in Ukraine continues to further attack the rights of working people, and further force workers of Ukraine into the bondage of capital and grinding poverty.
Since April 1 this year, once again (the second time since the beginning of the year) electricity bills have increased by 15%. There is a scheduled increase (in two stages) by 30% for gas bills and 62% - for utilities, the first phase increase was implemented in April. In fact, the true government of Ukraine is not the government of Azarov, but the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which provides loans to Ukraine under onerous conditions, requiring a reduction in the budget deficit by dramatically reducing social spending, raising the retirement age, increasing tariffs for housing and communal services, electricity and gas for the population, etc. Moreover, these loans are a burden borne by the working people. Ukraine already on a monthly basis has to give back to the international financial structure 8 billion UAN (1 billion dollars) of debt on loans made by the previous government Tymoshenko. But the government of Azarov, instead of trying to jump off the dollar needle of the IMF, continues the disastrous policies of his predecessors, all over Ukraine and driving our nation into debt and debt bondage.
At the same time, this policy contributes to the further enrichment of the bourgeoisie of Ukraine and the Ministers themselves. According to the magazine "Focus", the number of billionaires in Ukraine last year increased from 8 to 21 people. The total wealth of the 200 largest capitalist robbers amounts to more than 93 billion dollars, which is nearly three state budgets of Ukraine (and our government has "nowhere to get the money from" to refill the deficit of the Pension Fund, for example).
R. Akhmetov continues to be the richest man in Ukraine, increasing his own capital by 2 times - from 7.5 billion dollars to 15.59 billion dollars. According to the report by the Gorshenin Institute "Big Ukrainian business and the government of Ukraine” submitted to Brussels on the 27.03., the majority of the members of the government are dollar millionaires. Thus, the 5 members of the Cabinet are officially millionaires, and they are: A. Klyuev, B. Kolesnikov, S. Tigipko, Yu. Boyko and N. Prisyajnyuk, and two more – V. Baloha and N. Zlochevsky – are millionaires de facto, although they do not declare their millions. The report notes that a number of ministers registered their property in the names of close relatives: Azarov and Lavrinovic – in their sons’ names, Tabachnik – in his brother’s name. The report also says that last year the level of wealth of government millionaires has grown considerably. Thus, the wealth of first vice-premier Klyuev in 2010 increased by more than half a billion dollars (!!), the wealth of vice-premier Tigipko – by 223.6 million dollars
But Ukraine meanwhile is being transformed into a "banana republic" in the literal sense. Cabbage on the Ukrainian market is more expensive than bananas from Ecuador. The agro-industrial complex is almost completely destroyed. And Ukraine has to import dairy products from Belarus, cabbage - from Poland, buckwheat - from China ... But Minister of Finance Fedor Yaroshenko says – “we are building a market economy”.
A foreign "investor" has privatized Ukrtelecom, and the Ukrainian president stubbornly insists that the privatization of strategic facilities will continue (this is understandable - our billionaires and foreign billionaires need to build up their own capital). The selling off of Ukraine continues. And whole villages, together with their inhabitants are already being sold, just like under serfdom. Thus, in the Donetsk region, the village of Dal’nee has been sold off. Residents of the village received homes under Soviet power from the collective farm "Druzhba", which worked for decades. Now the new owner is threatening to kick people out if they do not pay rent or do not buy that same house that rightfully belongs to them.
Children are trafficked from Ukraine as a commodity. Recently, at the Customs, two Frenchmen were detained who had tried to traffic two babies out of the country inside boxes used for carrying kitchen utensils. In Ukraine, surrogacy is allowed and young Ukrainian women are ready to give birth for foreigners in order to somehow for the money, feed their families.
TB kills one person every hour. In a year - 10,000 people. At the same time, there is a shortage by 40% of medical specialists, since who will work for a salary of 1200 UAN?
Even these brief examples once again confirm our Bolshevik conclusion that the regime of Yanukovych- Azarov faithfully serves big business of Ukraine and the West (represented by the US-EU-Israel), helping the first to enrich themselves, and selling off the remnants of economic sovereignty and political independence to the second. (However, the genuine sovereignty and independence of Ukraine was lost back in December 1991 with the criminal destruction of the USSR). In fact, it is a policy of purposeful destruction of the Ukrainian people .

* * *

But the working people of Ukraine shall cease to tolerate this bullying and are starting to protest against the intolerable living conditions in which they subjected to over the 20 years of "independence" and predatory bourgeois reforms.
According to media reports, during the period from October 2009 to October 2010, in Ukraine on a daily basis, an average of 8 protests were held. Their peak occurred in October-November 2010, when local actions began to escalate into all-Ukrainian protests and culminated in the Tax Maydan and AvtoMaydan, in March of this year already. Representatives of small and medium-sized businesses protested against the new Tax Code, which increased the tax burden on small and medium capital.
The authorities strongly hampered the holding of the AvtoMaydan protest action by entrepreneurs, who in cars from different regions of Ukraine gathered in Kiev: on the road to Kiev, traffic police repeatedly detained the protestors, and in Kiev along the roads the convoys were heading along, on the streets appeared lorries and dump trucks that had all suddenly “broken down at the same time” etc. But, according to a businessman from Lugansk, they did not want to overthrow the government, and their demands are legal. And the essence of their problems lies in the fact that small and medium-sized businesses want to be able to continue to operate under the simplified system of taxation and not be forced to go into the shadows or even close down their businesses. The political spokesman for this layer of business is N. Korolyevskaya, a member of the Yulia Tymoshenko Bloc (BYuT). In fact, this was an attempt by the petty and middle bourgeoisie to survive and not to sink into the ranks of the proletariat in condition of an offensive by big capital of Ukraine.
But the objective laws of capitalist development, the steady tendency of capital concentration and centralization will continue to lead to ruin much of the small and medium-sized businesses and lead to the proletarianization of their representatives.

Representatives of hired labour take strike action.

For many years, workers at the Shevchenko plant in Kharkov have been fighting for survival, the debt on wages has reached 30 milion UAN. The amount payable to each employee ranges from 12 to 20 thousand UAH.
And it is namely the most brutal exploitation of the working class, working people of Ukraine, including non-payment of their meager salaries, a systematic increase in prices and tariffs that is the basis of the rapid enrichment of Akhmetov, Klyuyev, Tigipko ...
In March, teachers went on strike, whose salaries are only slightly over a thousand UAH a month. (And there are lower rates: 813-860 UAH). During the strike in Zaporozhe, one of the teachers noted - how can a hungry teacher teach a reasonable, good and eternal education. The actions culminated in local actions by teachers turned into all-Ukrainian protest in Kiev, which was attended by approximately 10 thousand people (official figure). Teachers are demanding higher rates, and a 20% supplement to improve the material conditions of their labour. “We teach children to respect this country”, said one of the protesters, “but the state tramples on us”.
Is it possible and necessary to respect a state that kills its own people?!
Even in the Communist Manifesto, Marx and Engels noted that the working class does not have its own homeland.
We, the workers of the ex-Soviet Union, have lost their homeland, having yielded to Gorbachev's treacherous demagoguery.
Do not beg capital and the President and government of handouts at the service of it, but rise up to fight for your rights - the only way out of poverty, starvation and extinction, the path to a decent life.

We Bolsheviks congratulate workers of Ukraine, Russia, and all the former Soviet republics on the occasion of May Day - International Workers' Day of Solidarity, a day of struggle against exploitation and oppression!
We urged all workers to go to demonstrations and rallies on May Day with the slogan:

DOWN WITH THE POWER OF CAPITAL!
DOWN WITH THE ANTI-PEOPLES YANUKOVYCH-AZAROV REGIME!
WE SHALL RESTORE SOVIET POWER AND SOCIALISM!
WE SHALL REVIVE OUR GREAT SOVIET MOTHERLAND!

THE COMMUNIST MOVEMENT AND YOUNG PEOPLE. "THE YOUTH ISSUE” - 2
A. GERASIMOV, a political prisoner in Ukraine

Nearly 4 years ago I wrote an article entitled "The Youth Issue" which was published in “RKP” (Raboche-Krestyanskaya Pravda) № 10, 2006. The article attracted the attention of many comrades and caused many disputes. I was criticized for painting a too gloomy a picture in the paper, for making too harsh an assessment, and for placing a question, that I did not give an answer to. However, so far, the entire communist movement as a whole has not given an intelligible and satisfactory answer to this "Youth Issue."
Comrades, we have let our enemies get away with a lot, and that has been very well used by them. And now they are the ones on horseback, while we are sprawling about on the ground. Either in the very near future we start to break to pieces the situation in our favor, and the youth start to replenish our ranks, or we will continue to languish, which is shameful for the followers of the Great Communist idea! Moreover, the Nazis are a growing force. Young people are increasingly filling their ranks, made insane by brown propaganda attracting young people into the ranks of fascist gangs by the activity and aggressiveness of Nazi organizations. This situation increases the threat of the establishment of a fascist dictatorship. And if such a scenario is ever realised, then a large proportion of the blame for this will lie on our leftist movement.

On the trail of the article the "Youth Issue"

I wrote this article during the information famine I was still subjected to in the early years of my imprisonment. Therefore, I showed the situation in Ukraine which I saw myself during the reign of Kuchma, i.e. the "Kuchma period", (early to mid 90-s). In the main, of course, I was not mistaken, but I did not take into account a number of particular details, although, had I have described them, the picture would have looked even more dismal.
However, with all its sharpness, my article is not intended to be an exhaustive analysis of the situation with young people in general during the period of restoration of capitalism in our country. But naturally, this will need to be done. Of course, this would require a whole series of materials, because we can say that we are just beginning work on this topic. A great deal needs to be said, but much more must be actually done to finally start moving off from the article I wrote, entitled "Point of Death". In that particular article, I touched upon the themes of informal youth and school education, as well as the psychology of adolescents at the turn of the century. The situation in these particular issues has undergone several major changes over the past few years. However, these changes do not cancel my old conclusions in the main.
So, in working with young people, a class approach is needed. And this time, its use will be more successful than 10-15 years ago, when many comrades approached young people not even from a Soviet point, and naturally, repeatedly failed. Now, when the capitalist system is already well established and has proven to be a dead end, for anyone able to think, the situation is somewhat simpler. But you still need to take into account the mass of moments. In the “Youth Issue” article, basically, it was about teenagers, that is, adolescents and youth of secondary and senior school age, as well as some of those between 18-25 years old. But, 30-35-year-olds are also young! Anyway, the official border separating youth from maturity is 35 years old.
It is obvious that the approach to 30-35-year-olds and 13-15-year-olds should be very different. And the 25-year-old young man, too, differs from both the former and from the latter. Actually, I would single out the age groups, differences which we have so far taken into account:
1) up to 15 years old;
2) 15-17 years;
3) 17-21 years;
4) 21-25 years;
5), 25-30 years;
6), 30-35.
These differences are, of course, sometimes very important, and sometimes rather arbitrary. And the factors causing these differences, vary quite a lot. We consider them below. But meanwhile we shall take a look at how youth work is carried out by parliamentary leftists.

Young people and the opportunists
Nowadays, officially the left spectrum is represented by the CPU (Communist Party of Ukraine) and the PSPU (Progressive Socialist Party of Ukraine). The latter, however, as the "parent" organisation of the SPU (Socialist Party of Ukraine can be called "leftist" only by the colour of the flag). The socialists and their leader Moroz have long been assigned to the political junkyard. Well, the Natalia Vitrenko supporters club is a pro-Russian chauvinist party worker, and in our present context, nothing can be said about her! But it is worth talking about the Communist party of Ukraine.
Today's situation completely confirms my words four years ago. Formally, the CPU leadership is deeply involved in rejuvenation of the Party ranks, and on paper it looks pretty good. And so it is with agitation: More than fifty thousand Komsomol "New Wave"newspapers are published weekly. And that is a lot, but there was a time when the circulation thereof reached one hundred thousand copies!
However, as the last presidential election showed, the efficiency of the enormous financial cost of the effort was close to zero. The leader P.N. Simonenko came in a shameful 6th place - the best proof of this. The slender (on paper) ranks of “young communists and Komsomols" is in fact - fiction! "Dead souls" and a devoid of ideology amorphous ordinary mass with the same unprincipled careerists at the head - that's the standard Komsomol organization! Of course, there is a small percentage of youth who entered the CPU and Komsomol because they are not satisfied with the existing order, but for the most part, the CPU youth are supporters of "moderate progress in the framework of the rule of law." However, all too rarely are the revolutionary youth encountered in the CPU. This is natural. But they get into the party and Komsomol not because of CPU agitation-propaganda, but in spite of it. Once in the organization, such young people very quickly understand the true nature of the opportunists and: either in general move away from political struggle, or (which happens very rarely) go in search of true revolutionaries, while often falling into the arms of the so-called left-wing opportunists, who in fact are more mongers and hypocrites than the right opportunists in the CPU.
The current Komsomol reminds me of a provincial pioneers' palace. Overgrown foreheads relax and have fun on CPU money: summer camps, KVN, mini-football, rock festivals ... In general, not much different from purely bourgeois youth hangouts. Komsomol party-goers are absolutely sterile in ideological terms, and these differ for the worse, from old men - members of the CPU, of which there are still enough educated Marxists, and most, though not shining in political literacy by themselves are honest decent Soviet people, who sincerely and selflessly lead and conduct party work. Well, young people without financial incentives will not do a thing. A large part of the ‘Komsomols’ and 'young communists’ (rank and file) are party membership card mercenaries who stand at agitation stalls and go to rallies and meetings for money. Still, I must say that the best part of the Komsomol is doing something useful. First of all, it opposes the Ukrainian Nazis, including by forceful confrontation. And it does this certainly at a disadvantage, because the Nazis are superior to the groups of Komsomol both quantitatively and qualitatively! It is easy to assume that sooner or later this will end with a true clash (es) with dozens, maybe even hundreds wounded and killed, and the subsequent defeat of the Left.
But the party leaders have no time to think about the possibility of such a turn of events, as they need something quite different from young party members and members of the Komsomol, as well as the mass of young people in general. The CPU sees the youth only as voters in elections. If we carefully study the Komsomol newspaper "New Wave", this is easy to verify.
This as an all-Ukrainian newspaper published since the beginning of 2008. During this time, it has not found its face and has not won over the masses among thoughtful readers. This is not surprising. The empty form of "New Wave" is based on pale Soviet patriotism and the general line of the CPU. The newspaper wants to persuade young people to vote for the CPU. And it is directed solely at people aged 25-35. For younger people, "New Wave" is too boring. For the ideological activist, it is too apolitical. Even within this age, it is only for a narrow layer of the so-called middle class “on the rise”. Moreover, if the "adult" CPU press (though among others) turns to workers too, then "New Wave" ever more tries to persuade the “successful young people”, that they should only vote for the CPU, showing them that it is quite a "respectable" party, and not a gathering of "old farts", "suckers, losers, tramps and moreover -"bloodthirsty Bolsheviks." In the Komsomol newspaper, of course, there is no overt anti-Stalinism, "repentance" for "mistakes" and "brutality" of the Bolsheviks during the revolution. And it must be fair to say that quite good and literate notes are given by former first secretary of the Komsomol E. Tsar'kov and the editor himself of "New Wave" A. Bondarenko. But everything else, to put it mildly, in general, leaves much to be desired.
Readily apparent is the age egocentrism of the Editorial (editor of a team of regular contributors from the localities). This is complemented by almost Baptist humility. And the output is a toothless, grey newspaper, weaving inside the deep tail of even that age and social group to whom it is more than anything else designed for.
We shall "digress" and now pay attention to the following (especially the older comrades, for whom the Internet is - Terra Incognita). As shown by recent events: the fire in the "Old Horse" (a nightclub in the city of Perm), the death of Polish President Kaczynski and the entire Polish "elite" around Smolensk, and the story of the coastal mystics – the Russian Internet was seething with malice and hatred towards the rule of the bourgeoisie! Some people may think that dancing on the bones of our enemies may seem sacrilegious, but I think this is a very good sign. This is - class hatred - terrible for the oppressors, but holy for the oppressed!
And now here is something to ponder over. First, the bulk of Internet users are young people and I am not mistaken if I say that these and other similar events are most actively embraced by people aged 25-35. Secondly, regular use of a computer means that these people are not the poorest but: the labour aristocracy, "office plankton”, engineers and technicians, but not loaders and handymen. And here even such "respectable" people are happy to see the bourgeois "babies" beaten, and yearn for more blood. I do not think that the Ukrainian contingent in this age of social groups is fundamentally different from the Russian one. Even more so when the power in favour of the oligarchs is increasingly trying to fuck people over by the tonsils!
Rising prices, increasing the retirement age, bureaucratic and police brutality are slowly but surely bring the masses to boiling point.
But the early attainment of this point is not needed by the CPU, it needs the votes and voters. The Party bosses do not want the risk and hassle, and fear the response by the bourgeois state for an aggressively rebellious youth. And therefore it does not aim at involving rebellious youth in the communist movement.

What should have been said in the beginning
Of course, the youth is not a separate class with differing fundamental interests from all the well-known classes, and moreover, it is incorrect to see it as a revolutionary new class that has somehow replaced the proletariat. These misconceptions arose in Western Europe and the U.S. in the 1960-s, and the restoration of capitalism in the USSR has moved that misconception over towards us. The apparent failure of such representations of reality limits the scope of their fans, a small handful of "armchair Marxists." But just as the passivity of the proletariat, the inability and unwillingness of some young comrades to do the dirty work for their organization, and the lack of understanding of the causes of the current passivity of the workers, from time to time generate a search for a “fifth corner”, that is, a new revolutionary class, which contradicts Marxism and common sense.
Yes, young people are found within those classes to which belong they by birth, and from the moment of entry into independent life, clearly occupy a place in the social pyramid, and usually close to their parents. Much confusion confounding our party leaders and theorists of the basements had its place during the first years after the bourgeois counter-revolution, because then, the classes of capitalist society had only just formed. Moreover, it should be noted that the bourgeoisie had formed much faster than the proletariat. Quite often, yesterday's workers became petty and even middle bourgeoisie. Not every young worker is a proletarian, moreover, a working pensioner or a person close to retirement age who has a large array of personal property: apartment, cottage, car, etc., can not be called a proletarian either. It is not uncommon. And even if an older worker does not have a position in a company corresponding to "labour aristocracy", he very well may use his own personal property for enrichment and may not be heavily dependent upon selling his own labour power. How much the rotting Soviet working class became proletarian can be judged by the intensity of strikes and other protests against unpaid wages. The intensity of this struggle is clearly low. Consequently, the proletariat is still being formed, although this process is nearing completion.
Such a bourgeois worker does his utmost to push his offspring to a higher social level, even if not to the level of an exploiter, then at least to the level of an exploiter’s lackey. Such aspirations are the result of bourgeois middle-class psychology, putting reason to sleep and producing monsters.
It is clear that the history of the shoe shiner who became a millionaire is a fairy tale for social Down Syndromers. But how can townsfolk not believe in the purpal dream of capitalism, if in front of them there is a "mass" of examples of those very same successful sluts "who come from the common people", paving by their charms a road to the marital lie of the bloated rich?! Nobody, however, thinks that to the one "lucky" girl there are thousands of those whose road, having started out in numerous model agencies or on the margins of show business, failed to reach "stardom", but instead, the hellhole of brothels and the "hundred metre sidewalk" across the entire world. It is a recognized fact that bourgeois Ukraine is one of the leaders in the "export" of female flesh to the streets of the red light districts of Europe and America! Likewise, the "shoe shiner", malnourished and downtrodden, and then, finally, opening his own business, and enriching himself in the eyes of the rest of us! To one successful bourgeois from the "common people" there are thousands of those other people that from "tricks in the market paradise," have been led to a broken trough, who have been brought to ruin and strangled by debt!
However, we have been a bit distracted by the question now under consideration. I have already painted a fairly bleak picture, and, at first glance, contradicting myself, noting first, that children remain in the class to which the parents belong to, and then, after that describing how the modern Ukrainian workers are pushing their children into the class of the bourgeoisie or its subservients.
In fact, there is no contradiction, because involved in this one layer were bourgeoisified Soviet workers, which in modern conditions were close to the exploiters and their lackeys. But this is far from most of today's employees.
Ignoring the fact of workers becoming bourgeois and the consequential impact of this phenomenon in young people is not the only mistake of the Left.
In the 1990-s, spreading the youth "along shelves”, the left tried to shove them into three cells: the bourgeoisie, the students and the workers. In this case, it remained unclear: to what level was it necessary to enlist the criminal youth?
To understand how society became engulfed in criminality, it suffices to recall that in "independent" Ukraine, that is, in less than 20 years, more than 10 million people have been convicted! It is also clear that youth have been the most affected by criminality.


Path of blood
To understand this phenomenon it is necessary to understand not so much the youth, but the last few generations, and the epoch and reasons for our failures.
We need to start "digging" back in the 1980-s when crime began to take hold with an ever greater force. There has always been crime, but before the 1980-s it existed only in the darkest corners of Soviet reality. Crime is an indicator of the true state of society. For capitalist society, this is the norm and an integral part of it. Under socialism, i.e., on the road to communism – these are the dying "birthmarks" of the past.
However, in the late USSR, these "birthmarks" on the contrary, began to grow. And, above all, this appeared not by the increase the number of pickpockets, burglaries, burglars, robbers, thugs and assassins, although the total number of domestic crimes, including murder, continuously increased with the increase in alcoholism. But it is no secret that before perestroika, the streets of Soviet cities were virtually crimefree.
However, by the 1970-s, a significant number of people became accustomed to bribe-takers, speculators and "pilferers”. Moreover, tens of millions of supposedly Soviet people were, in fact just those types!
The classic underworld, which lived according to the system: "those who stole, drank – off to prison”, grew and developed on namely this nutrient layer. It is always advantageous though harder to rob a crook than an honest man. But gradually there appeared another crime to unite and protect the crooks. Bribe-takers from the nomenclatura united with speculators and plunderers of socialist property. On the outskirts of the Soviet Union began to appear "red" clans, where the authorities were the real mafia.
Even in affluent regions, the young bureaucratic elite, leaders of the Young Communist League and the children party bosses increasingly felt like sovereign and uncontrolled masters of life. Ordinary people saw it all - and the “process had begun”.
Already by the mid-80's, there are widely known examples of the actual capture of major cities by youth gangs. The most famous in this regard, was Kazan, and in Ukraine in this sense, the notorious Krivoy Rog.
Gangs controlling the urban areas, discovered their attitude towards each other with the help of all appropriate materials at hand, including firearms, not to mention knives and brass knuckledusters, resulting in dozens of teenagers being killed and hundreds wounded and maimed. Those who do not believe a word, I advise you to find the relevant statistics. It was not limited to mass slaughter of any stranger inadvertently caught in another district, even a person not being in a rival gang risked if not ones own life, then ones health. But even "their own people" who did not want to stray into the animal herd were subjected to constant abuse. It is also worth noting that the youth gangs established a system of total racket, pressurising all the teenagers in the area, without exception.
Such an atmosphere forced the youth to join the gangs en masse. Of course, I outlined the toughest situation, but that situation grew out of the softer forms of street life, which won itself more seats in the realities of the 80's, in the face of which out of lack of strength, the family, school, party and Komsomol retreated.
This was a youth rebellion against the system of decaying "socialism" against the fate of the "happy" vegetable, which was forced upon the masses by the school, the Komsomol and the party - "the leading and guiding," "the mind, honor and conscience of the era." Well… and the family? Birdbrained philistines generally imagined little of what actually happens in reality. Old communist philistines and those opportunists who now present pre-Gorbachev USSR as the "promised paradise”, after reading the above, perhaps, will announce that it is "slander"... But against what? And why did this all happen?
You can, of course, suggest that the young thugs were steered by adult crime, not pursuing any other purposes other than their own narrow-corporate interests, but not in the case of Kazan or similar cities, where clashes between young people took away dozens of lives. In answering these questions, the possible options are: either the phenomenon escaped from under the control of its creators, or, conversely, everything was very well orchestrated. But in any case, this situation meant only one thing: the utter bankruptcy of the system. The bankruptcy of the formal educators: the school, the Komsomol, and the Komsomol had to be not just a formal mentor, but also an informal one. The Komsomol began to abandon the latter informal function a long time ago, but its complete collapse became evident by early the 80's.
Likewise, the power structure of the state demonstrated its bankruptcy. The militia and the KGB could not cope with the lawlessness among the youth. Meanwhile, such an atmosphere nurtured "rank and file soldiers of the market."
Exactly the same, was the touching unity with crime as demonstrated by Soviet sport.
Another phenomenon of informal youth self-organization were the "repairmen". Youth gangs from workers’ districts and the suburbs of cities (the most infamous were the "Luberos") declared war on the prosperous city centre and the youth who fell under the influence of the West.
Here these were the Soviet Hunveibins! And here I cannot say a word against them: better to be a Hunveibin, than a Deng Xiaoping! And the bankrupt officialdom in its conservative section met this movement with support. It should be noted that under officialdom, I understand to be the Soviet nomenklatura, including security officials, who grumbled about perestoika, but did not enter into open conflict with the governing "democrats". In the "communist", though more in the radical-conservative resistance, from the start, an entirely different ideal of the youth was founded.
It was already in the late 80's, and the communist resistance could well have found an approach to these youth groups. Of course it could have done, if it had really wanted to. But it chose to appeal to pensioners and mature philistines, fearful of the methods of the youth.
One can talk a lot about this topic, but it is better, comrades, to work things out yourselves and understand the situation not via militia reports of that time, but through the power of art. A good presentation of what has been said above is given in the film "My name is Arlekino"(1988 – crime drama), and books by V. Krapivin: "A boy with a sword" and "Lullaby for my brother". The last books show, including the informal struggle (or rather, its attempts) against the growing rot in Soviet society, and the attitude of the officialdom to such conflicts. Incidentally, from there grew the legs of the so monstrous and virtually open-stamp, that says, "a good man has to simply be a victim."

* * *
Crime is generated by social factors. The deepening and accelerating stratification of society into rich and poor led to an increase in crime in the Soviet Union. Perestroika began, and then – the open restoration of capitalism. The processes that were taking place in the Soviet Union were very similar to those that occurred in Western countries over the past 500 years. Start-up capital, like a few centuries ago, was invented under a "Jolly Roger" flag. The youth went for this flag at that time. Crime become the surest way towards a speedy climb to the top of society, or rather, it created such an illusion. But inaccessible to the masses on the whole, this way became very real, for individuals even. Moreover, this method providing high vertical mobility by several orders of magnitude, is more real and easier that the old capitalist fairy tale about the "hardworking" petty bourgeois. It is this illusion that kidnapped huge masses of young people.
Again then, the real "heroes of our (recent) time" are shown in the film "Brigada". In the 1990’s, such heroes for the youth were landmarks and symbols of success, and you would not evoke any more sympathy and respect among the people towards those at the top, especially if they were traders-merchants. Fear of the "sacred right of private property" was not instilled into the people, and people were allowed to use their instincts to survive to the fullest. Therefore, preaching cheap pseudo-socialist morality and patriotism yielded no results.
And once again I have to raise the topic I have touched upon many times. Namely - the role and power of the heroic example. Communists throughout the 20 years of capitalist restoration, if they ever gave an example, it would only be an example of - masochism and bullshit (balabolstvo). How many times have comrades pledged to punish the traitors and enemies of the people? Have any of these traitors and enemies of the people incurred their deserved punishment?
The answer is obvious. Moreover, in some places, in the Soviet patriotic press, prattle flashed around about "cursed people." In a word – they have arrived! But such passages are written and published by those who consider themselves to be communists!
Actually the communist movement could not develop in the 90's, and was only able to develop in the form of circles of intellectuals (even if calling themselves "parties"), but with Soviet patriots - both formal and actual (and the latter was 99% - there was no difference in the parliamentary or extra-parliamentary parties and movements) –they got caught in a trap. Constantly repeating the assertion about an "occupation" of the USSR, they did not make a single step that would be necessary in the case of a real occupation ...
On one side of the scales, for young people there was the enticing prospect of wealth, a beautiful life and all sorts of pleasures, and on the other side of the scales - a grey miserable mass, describing the delights of a warm stall for working animals! And in fact that is what propaganda many communist parties was like, who called for a return to the Soviet past, which, firstly, some people found too boring and monotonous, and secondly, it is accepted that young people like to hope to achieve everything by relying upon their own strenght. And what was promised by the Left, was either not needed by the youth, or that the youth would do this themselves, with the help of a fist or through the barrel of a gun.

LACKIES OF THE ANTI-PEOPLES AUTHORITIES
Statement by Mukachevo organization of the AUCPB
(All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks)

On March 18, a large meeting by the Mukachevo city organization "Soldiers-internationalists of the Afghan war and other local conflicts”, was held, led by Chairman of the Board retired Colonel V.S. Semenchuk
The first item on the agenda was the question about the behavior of the Secretary of the CC AUCPB A.A. Mayevsky. The essence of the matter is that how comrade Mayevsky had the audacity, without the consent of the board of the social organization of Afghan war veterans, and without asking for permission from local authorities, together with activists from the organization of the Mukachevo AUCPB, distribute their leaflet "Complete Indifference To The People" on February 15, on the anniversary of the Soviet troop withdrawal from Afghanistan, during the meeting and before the ending of the prayer service.
This leaflet discussed that the local government decided to terminate the central heating of the city. I.e. the issues of heating and maintaining normal living conditions in apartments in the winter time has been shifted onto the shoulders of the residents by the authorities. And the fact that the cost of installing individual heating systems at 5-10 times the income of most residents of Mukachevo, does not concern the authorities whatsoever.
And, according to the logic of Mr. Semenchuk, we Bolsheviks had to seek permission from the authorities to EXPOSE THE ANTI-PEOPLES CHARACTER of this bourgeois power. All the utilities networks in the city have deteriorated. The local bourgeoisie, after the destruction of the Soviet Union and Ukraine gaining "independence" have only profited and increased their wealth. All their unrighteous wealth has been accumulated by robbing the people, by stopping and collapsing the most advanced enterprises in the city, which has led to mass unemployment. At the same time, necessary funds are not invested into the utilities, and thus so far it has come to complete disrepair. Rather than deal with this issue, the government went for the easiest path towards the abolition of the centralised heating system and shifted the issue on the shoulders of the residents of Mukachevo.
The AUCPB leaflet entitled "Complete Indifference To The People" with only few hundred copies printed off has thus frightened the city's authorities that by using Mr. Semenchuk, has decided to inflict moral punishment on our leader, by having him expelled from the ranks of the Afghan Society by a majority of votes of members of the extended board.
Comrade A. Mayevsky is a retired lieutenant colonel, and fulfilling his internationalist duty in Afghanistan in 1985-1987, was awarded state awards of the USSR for military services and has the well-deserved respect from all Afghans veterans and all military personnel, who have not betrayed their military oath to loyalty to the Soviet Motherland – the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Early in the 1990's, he took an active part in the Afghan city organization, which then was not afraid to raise red flags at marches and rallies. Now, some Afghans was veterans have forgotten their oath of allegiance to the Soviet people. Like one of the members of the board expressed- I have come "to cry and remember" our dead comrades, but here there are SUCH (!) leaflets being handed around.
Our goal, the Bolsheviks, we see in that city workers, including Afghans war veterans, do not just "cry and pray for", but ponder over why they live the way they do: i.e. why some are bathed in luxury (the minority) and others (the vast majority) are forced not to live, but fight for survival. The bourgeoisie in all spheres is attacking working people: the systematic rising food prices, the tariffs for public utilities. Mass unemployment, due to a stoppage (or sharp decline in production volumes) of a number of enterprises, have affected residents of Mukachevo and they are forced, like workers in other regions of Ukraine, to support their families, leave the country to work abroad. Drug addiction, alcohol abuse, alcoholism, and rampant crime have become commonplace in our lives.
The authorities consider nothing at all. The power needs a humble nation, from which you can rip off "seven skins," and remain silent at the same. And it is extremely frightened by the call on our leaflet: "Dear Mukachevites! How much more will we put up with the humiliating attitude of the authorities (from the central to local) towards us. Is it time to begin to act as in Tunisia and Egypt ?!!». Fear has large eyes. Dr. Semenchuk saw this as a call to overthrow the constitutional order, ie, the head of an NGO, who has no right to interfere in the activities of political parties, becomes a representative of the SBU and the Prosecutor's Office, began to replace them, not forgetting to invite to the extended meeting of the Board a representative of the SBU (who, however, remarked that he had already retired, although, as we know, the representatives of these special organs and "retired" ones continue to perform their functions).
No there is no appeal "to overthrow the constitutional order," Mr. Semenchuk. There's a call for one thing – for the workers to begin to RESPECT themselves, and to remember that they are ALSO PEOPLE (and not just the people who knocked up their own capital), and to prevent an inhumane attitude towards themselves.
We want to remind Afghans war veterans that they fulfilled their internationalist duty honestly and faithfully served the great Soviet Motherland. A withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan served as a prologue to the withdrawal, in fact, of Soviet troops from the socialist countries at the will of the treacherous Gorbachev's leadership. That ultimately led to the temporary destruction of our country, the restoration of capitalism, enriching a small minority and the impoverishment and extinction of the working people.
With the destruction of the Soviet Army, the true defender of world peace, the warriors of US-NATO were unbelted. They committed gangster aggression against Yugoslavia, Afghanistan and Iraq. In Iraq, the cradle of human civilization, from the aggression of imperialist barbarians, a million people were killed.
In Afghanistan, the fighters of the U.S. and its allies have frequently bombed and shelled civilians by "mistake", including a wedding procession, which resulted in killing innocent people, ie, they behave like occupiers. Soviet troops in Afghanistan behaved quite another way, by helping the Afghan people to fight for their independent future and defending the southern borders of our Motherland. But now from Afghanistan, as a result of "Democratic support" by the U.S. and its allies, the flow of illegal drugs has increased ten times, spreading to Russia, and Ukraine, ruining many young lives in a drugged stupor.
Currently, the coalition of Western "civilizers” (siphilizers) are carrying out aggression against independent Libya. The rulers of the US-NATO want to overthrow the regime of Muammar Gaddafi's only because he had not handed over his country's oil wealth to be plundered by multinational corporations, but instead, placed it at the service of his people. As a result, the standard of living in this country is the highest in Africa and in terms of GDP per capita, Libya stands at 43 in the world, but "independent" Ukraine at 81. At one time, Ukraine Soviet Socialist Republic was among the ten most developed countries in the world. In Soviet Ukraine, the current mayor of Mukachevo, Mr Z.Z. Lendel, being at one day the 1 st secretary of the Party Committee of the CPSU, would never have even dreamt about disabling the town’s central heating system, because at that time he was serving Soviet, people’s power. Nowadays, he is at the service of the bourgeoisie, and as the mayor, acts quite differently.

Dear Mukachevites!

The reason for our hopeless lives lies in the power of CAPITALto established on our land. Fight for its overthrow, to take your destiny into your own hands, to restore Soviet power and socialism, to achieve true independence of Ukraine as part of the revived Soviet Union - that is what we Bolsheviks call on you to do.

RESOLUTION

Bureau of the CC AUCPB for Ukraine, Moldova and Transnistria
Having heard and discussed the report of the Secretary of the Central Committee of the AUCPB, chairman of the Bureau of the CC AUCPB for Ukraine, Moldova and Transnistria "Only in the struggle can you win the right to a decent life!", the Bureau of the Central Committee of the AUCPB
NOTES THE FOLLOWING:

1. The world situation continues to steadily deteriorate. Modern imperialism, mired in the global financial and economic crisis, finds no way out of it, except by way of inciting new wars and military conflicts in the struggle for full control over natural resources and raw materials of the planet, primarily oil and gas.
2. In this regard, the developments in the countries of North Africa and the Middle East should be examined, ie the first so-called "Internet revolutions" carried out to replace the discredited pro-Western regimes (Tunisia, Egypt), and other regimes loyal to and totally controlled by Western imperialism, U.S. imperialism, Israel and NATO. Mass protests are occurring in other countries too: Algeria, Yemen, Kuwait, Oman and others . Mass protests began in Saudi Arabia, the largest manufacturer and exporter of oil in the world.
3. Under this same scenario is occurring the so-called "revolution" in Libya. But here the West was faced with stubborn resistance of the people, the majority of whom are devotees to Muammar Gaddafi and ready to take up arms to defend the gains of the Libyan Revolution in 1969.
Drawing on all sorts of comprador and treacherous elements using ethnic-tribal conflicts, imperialism, US-Israel-NATO threatened to use (and are now using- FB) force against Libya to overthrow the disagreeable to them Gaddafi regime and take control of the largest oilfields in the country. (Libya - the largest oil producer in Africa and 8 th country among the members of OPEC).
4. US-Israel-NATO seek to take full control of the Suez Canal and the Persian Gulf to control the transport of oil and other natural raw materials and goods, including into China, which has now become the second, after the U.S., a country of financial and economic influence in Africa, as well as to pursue further ruthlessly exploit and plunder the peoples and nations throughout Africa, with its rich deposits of gold, platinum, uranium, petroleum, copper, cobalt, rare earth elements and other natural raw materials and mineral resources.
5. The strategic aim of U.S. imperialism is the conquest of Iran, DPRK (North Korea), Cuba, Venezuela, to get rid of unwanted regimes conducting separate and independent internal and external policies and to establish full control over the world. In this regard, US-Zionist capital is carrying on incessant work on the final enslavement of Russia and its transformation into a colonial raw material appendage of the West, as well as to prevent the emergence of China, imperialist China, as the largest economy in the world.
6. In Ukraine, the Yanukovych-Azarov regime, the regime of big business, uses the passivity of the masses,and continues its unprecedented attack on the rights of working people. By arrangement with the IMF, another increase in gas tariffs is planned for households at 30%, 62% - on utility bills. The plans of the bourgeois power include- the pension reform with higher retirement ages: women - from 55 to 60 years, men - from 60 to 62 years, land reform with the creation of a land market for agricultural purposes, ie with the actual transition of Ukrainian black soil in the ownership of local oligarchs and transnational capital and the transformation of peasants into slaves on land taken from them, a Labour Code sharply undermining workers rights and a Housing Code that effectively deprives workers' rights to housing, etc.

THE AUCPB ORDERS:
1. Continue to conduct active agitation-propaganda work to expose the aggressive essence of contemporary American-Western imperialism, on the verge of death and trying to slow down its inevitable end by inciting wars and military conflicts in order to establish full control over the natural raw materials and oil and gas resources of the planet, with a view of enslavement of all peoples and nations to delay imperialism’s inevitable death.
2. To expose the regime of Yanukovych-Azarov, the regime of big capital, conducting an exit policy of Ukraine from the crisis on the backs of an unprecedented assault on the rights of working people and further rapid decline in living standards in Ukraine.
3. Explain to the masses that for a radical improvement of life, the power of capital has to be destroyed, and Soviet power restored, placing Ukraine back onto the socialist path of development, and that to revive the Soviet Union is possible only by revolution, when millions of working people rise up to fight for their rights, for their liberation from exploitation and oppression.
4. Instill Bolshevik class consciousness into the ranks of the working class, working people, spreading the Bolshevik press and literature, increasing subscriptions to the Workers' and Peasants' truth '. Local party organizations to move to the systematic production of leaflets on topical issues of everyday life of working people, exposing the anti-people’s character of the local bourgeois authoroties.

FOR BOLSHEVISM No 5 (98) MAY 2011

WORKERS OF ALL COUNTRIES, UNITE!

FOR BOLSHEVISM
INSIDE THE COMMUNIST AND WORKERS’ MOVEMENT

ALL-UNION COMMUNIST PARTY OF BOLSHEVIKS (AUCPB)

THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE IS THE HIGHEST LAW
On the 20 th anniversary of the All-Union Referendum held in the USSR.

March 17 this year marked 20 years from the date of the All-Union referendum held in the USSR on the preservation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The results of the tragic for our Soviet homeland in 1991 referendum are now kept quiet about by the present-day bourgeois reformers, but true Soviet patriots, by contrast, do not allow them to forget. They constantly remind citizens of the former once-united country, that their will is sacred, and the actions of the leaders at that time, against the will of the majority of Soviet people, are criminal.
The All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks (AUCPB) since the very first days of the betrayal carried out by the counter-revolution has been leading the fight against the destroyers of the Socialist Fatherland, who ignored the results of the referendum which has supreme legal force. The AUCPB was the first communist party in the former Soviet territory, where in its program it stated that the restoration of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics is its strategic objective.
However, while we, Bolsheviks, as consistent Marxist-Leninists examining various historical events from class positions, we consider it necessary to bring to the workers the truth, in connection with the holding of the referendum of March 17, 1991.
In matters of nation-building, we first of all proceed from the Marxist theory of the state. Thus, "the state - is a machine for maintaining the rule one class over another" (Lenin), and "a machine in the hands of a ruling class to suppress the resistance of its class enemies" (Stalin). The class nature of the Russian state until October 1917 was the dictatorship of the landlords and capitalists. As a result of the Great October Socialist Revolution, the Russian proletariat, in alliance with the peasantry, the state eliminated the bourgeois-landlord and created a fundamentally new type of state - the dictatorship of the proletariat.
Natural continuation of the revolutionary change in Russia was in the creation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The Declaration on the Establishment of the USSR, adopted on 30 December 1922 at the I Congress of Soviets of the USSR, stated: "Only in the camp of the Soviets, only under the dictatorship of the proletariat, rallying around itself the majority of the population, was it possible to destroy the root of national oppression, create a climate of trust and lay the basis of fraternal cooperation among nations ... The very structure of Soviet power, international in its class nature, pushes the working masses of the Soviet Republics to unite into one socialist family.
... The will of the peoples of the Soviet republics, who gathered recently at the congresses of their Soviets, unanimously agreed to the formation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and is a sure pledge that the union is a voluntary union of equal peoples, that in each republic is guaranteed the right to freely secede from the Union. .. "
The basic principles of the Declaration were specified in the Treaty on the formation of the USSR, adopted at the same I Congress of Soviets.
Thus, under the leadership of V.I. Lenin, according to his plan, which was implemented by J.V. Stalin, had created a multi-national socialist state - the voluntary union of equal and sovereign republics, built on the principles of proletarian internationalism and the unity of the socio-economic and political organization of society. In the Soviet state, the national question had been resolved completely and the best way possible, which until now had never existed in world practice of nation-building.
In 1924, the II All-Union Congress of Soviets adopted the first Constitution of the union of the proletarian state, and on December 5, 1936, the VIII Extraordinary Congress of Soviets of the USSR adopted the new Stalin Constitution - the constitution of victorious socialism in the USSR. In the Constitution was enshrined that the USSR is a federal state, formed on the basis of the voluntary association of equal Soviet Socialist Republics. Article 14 of the Fundamental Law of the State clearly identified the authority and running of the higher union bodies of power, and issues of self-determination were determined as follows: "The sovereignty of the union republics is limited only within the limits specified in Article 14 of the Constitution of the USSR. Outside these limits, each union republic exercises state power independently."
It is namely the voluntary delegating of separate state functions to the Union centre (Moscow) and the presence of Article 17 which guarantees to each union republic the right to "freely secede from the USSR" that allowed one the talk about genuine sovereignty of the Soviet republics.
After the death of J.V Stalin, Khrushchev's leadership in its policy abandoned the dictatorship of the proletariat, and proclaimed the idea of an all-peoples state. This was reflected in Article 1 of the Constitution, adopted in 1977 under Brezhnev. However, despite the introduction into the Constitution of the USSR of individual elements opportunistic in nature, Khrushchev, Brezhnev reformers and revisionists failed to completely emasculate its socialist base. The bourgeois remaking of the Soviet Constitution continued under Mikhail Gorbachev.
Yet the legal status of all the republics was clearly defined, and there was no reason to doubt their validity and the legal soundness of what Gorbachev's reformers waited for. Approval of all Soviet constitutions, the admission of new republics into the USSR and the introduction of amendments and additions to the constitution were carried out by legally elected deputies of the higher organs of Soviet power, representing the interests of all workers of the Soviet republics. With regard to the independence of republics which bourgeois democrats most care about, even in the last Soviet Constitution in Article 76 stated: "The Federal Union Republic (Russia) is a sovereign socialist state, which has united with other Soviet republics into the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics." Hence, there were no weighty legal reasons for initiating the All-Union referendum.
Statements by the bourgeois democrats during Gorbachev's perestroika on the legal imperfection of Soviet constitutions, the requirement that they review the alleged violation of freedom of the Soviet peoples and the representation of our country as a unitary totalitarian state from beginning to end, have been invented. The friendship of Soviet peoples, proved by years of joint work and struggle, multiplied by the socialist rule of law, did not require any referendums: the working people, freed from exploitation and under the dominance of public ownership had nothing to carve up. Therefore, the initiation of a referendum by the Gorbachevites should not be viewed as a campaign to preserve a unified state, but instead as a campaign to achieve their ambitious goals. What goals?
The policy of perestroika, the ultimate aim which put forth the task of a return to capitalism, started under the demagogic slogans: "More democracy," "More socialism." Since a sharp immediate return to capitalism, according to Gorbachev himself, was dangerous for him and his team, and so populist ideas "about the independence of enterprises," was thrown into society together with “the use of human factors to improve production efficiency" (i.e. propaganda about enrichment at any cost ), “the need for greater autonomy for the republics," etc. This policy revived petty-bourgeois elements in society, brought about the element of individualism, nationalism and separatism. The socialist foundations of life and a single state began loosening. This was the very thing that the reformers-Gorbachevites sought: removing barriers towards to capitalization and the creation of conditions for rapid implementation of the long-known principle: Divide - and Conquer!"
However, to remain at the helm, the “men of perestroika” under the pressure of public opinion had to manoeuvre and create the appearance of “necessary corrective action” in an “extremely complex situation” that the Soviet state “was in”. Gorbachev put forth the idea of signing a new Union treaty. But if you look into its essence, it becomes clear that this was a ticking time bomb under a single Soviet socialist state. The insidious idea was carried out by Gorbachev subtly and gradually from the beginning until the last days of his rule. Simultaneously, two goals had been achieved: on one hand - it soothed public opinion, lulling the vigilance of workers and on the other – it pushed forward the bourgeois reform of the country.
We follow the chronology of events.
On April 9, 1989 was the first action carried out by the nationalist forces in Tbilisi, Georgia.
22 August 1989 in Vilnius, Lithuania, the opinion of the Supreme Soviet of the Lithuanian SSR was published, where it said that the declaration of national Seimas of Lithuania on its entry into the Soviet Union (21 July 1940) and the USSR Law on the adoption of the Lithuanian Soviet Socialist Republic the USSR (August 3, 1940) was illegal, null and void.
January 1990 laid the start of ethnic conflict with human victims between Armenia and Azerbaijan over the status of Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Region.
On June 12, 1990, the Supreme Soviet of Russia adopted the so-called Declaration on State Sovereignty of the RSFSR.
To many Soviet citizens it became clear: over our great country, over our united common Motherland the Soviet Union, dark clouds were hovering; drastic measures had to be taken to rectify the situation. But Gorbachev's leadership of the Soviet Union, for whom the policy of the dictatorship of the proletariat was an alien thing, did not take any decisive action, but only published a series of useless statements and appeals. Moreover, continuing the disastrous policy of perestroika, on October 17, 1990, Gorbachev sent to deputies of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR "Guidelines for the stabilization of the economy and the transition to a market economy", which for the first time, presented a plan for reforming the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics into a Union of Sovereign Republics. Of course, this Union was not to have anything to do with the proletarian state - the Soviet Union.
On December 17, 1990, at the IV Congress of People's Deputies of the USSR, Gorbachev made a speech in which he promulgated the idea of having an All-Union referendum: "... I submit to the Congress a proposal - to hold a referendum across the entire country, so that every citizen can vote “for” or “against”, the preservation of the Union of sovereign states on a federal basis." Note: There was not even a mention about the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Here is the true aim of the conceived idea!
After stormy debate, on December 24, people's deputies of the USSR adopted a resolution stating: "In connection with numerous appeals by the working people expressing their concern about the fate of the USSR, and given that the preservation of a single union state is a major issue of public life, affecting the interests of everyone and the entire population of the Soviet Union, the Congress of People's Deputies of the USSR orders: the Soviet Union is to hold a referendum to decide whether to preserve a renewed Union as a federation of equal sovereign Soviet Socialist Republics in the light of the results in each republic individually.
Finally, the question of the referendum, scheduled for March 17, 1991, was formulated and published in the following form: "Do you consider it necessary to preserve the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics as a renewed federation of equal sovereign republics, which will fully safeguard the rights and freedoms of all nationalities?” Hence it is clear: despite the mention of the full name of the Soviet people’s beloved Motherland, in the formulation of the question remained what seemed a minor detail - "a renewed federation of sovereign republics." What this is becomes clearer when one reads the published texts of the Union treaty. Well, what kinds of "rights and freedoms" were prepared by the bourgeois reformers in 1991 would become clear to working people just as soon after the implementation of their plans: the absence of the right to work at decent wages, the right to free education and medical care, etc.
In parallel with preparations for the All-Union referendum, work continued on editing the text of the so-called Union Treaty. The first draft of the Union Treaty was published on November 25, 1990. In it we read: "The USSR and the Republics allow the free development and protection of all forms of property ... The republics are the owners of the land, its mineral and other natural resources on their own territory ...". In the draft, you will not find even a mention of socialist republics, but instead, they appear as "sovereign" republics.
On the eve of the referendum of March 12, 1991, the draft "Treaty on the Union of Sovereign Republics" was published which is almost identical to the main provisions of the so-called Union Treaty. Within it, for the name of the union state, the drafters used the phrase "Union SSR" without giving any of its acronyms full transcripts. It was nothing other than a sheer mockery of 300 million people!
Little changed, even after the referendum. On June 27 and August 15, 1991, the newspaper Pravda printed the other drafts of the treaty, the last one marked with "Agreed on July 23, 1991”. Making reference in the preamble to the referendum on March 17 and having "blessed" finally, the citizens of their country with a new name – the "Union of Soviet Sovereign Republics" (and not Socialist Republics - FB) – the Gorbachevites with a stubbornness worthy of better use, retained the treacherous-perestroika essence of the previous documents, and continued the policy of capitalization and the collapse of a single federative socialist state.
And finally, after the August counter-revolutionary coup in August 1991, two weeks before the signing of the Belovezh Accords, on November 27, 1991 Gorbachev announced his latest document - a draft "Treaty on the Union of Sovereign States." In it was no mention of the referendum on March 17, and about the state structure of the Union, it reads: "The Union of Sovereign States (SSG) is a confederative democratic state ... The States forming the Union, reserve the right to decide independently all questions about their own development ... ". As you can see, it was suggested to the peoples of the Soviet Union that instead of the federation, which they voted in favour of, even if not fully realizing its meaning, an amorphous confederative formation was put forward, which in principle could not be created because it was based on a bourgeois basis, where each pursues its own interests. That is to say, that draft can be regarded as the last step towards the signing of Belovezh Accords which destroyed a great country – the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
Nevertheless, despite the above arguments about the disguised plans of the Gorbachevites to use the referendum on the USSR for the bourgeois reform of the country, a fight around it broke out in all the republics. Outspoken nationalists and compradors led a hysterical campaign against the preservation of the Union state. In Lithuania, Latvia, Moldova, Armenia, Georgia and Estonia, the local authorities, fearing an outcome of voting unfavourable to national-separatists, took the path of blocking the All-Union referendum.
And yet in most of the republics the referendum took place. Across the whole country, in the voting lists were 185 million citizens, out of which 80 percent took part in the referendum who had the right to vote. In accordance with the Law in the USSR on the popular vote (referendum in the USSR), from December 27, 1990, voting results should be counted across the whole country, which was done by the Central Commission of the referendum in the USSR. According to the Central Commission, 76.4 percent of Soviet citizens said "Yes" in favour of preserving the Union state. In accordance with the decision of the Congress of People's Deputies, the results of voting on each republic were reviewed individually. The results were as follows: in the RSFSR (Russia) 75.4 percent of the adult population took part in the voting, 71 percent answered "Yes". In Ukraine, respectively - 83 and 70 percent, in Belarus - 83 and 83 percent, in Uzbekistan - 95 and 93.7 percent, Kazakhstan - 89 and 94 percent, Azerbaijan - 75 and 93 percent, Kyrgyzstan - 93 and 94.5 percent, Tajikistan - 94 and 96 percent, Turkmenistan - 97.7 and 98 per cent.
In the republics, where the Central Republican Committees had not been established, many people went to the polls, which, despite the obstacles by the authorities, were still open on this day. In the South-Ossetian autonomous region of Georgia, about 50 thousand people expressed their will, in Estonia - 300 000, in Latvia - more than 500,000, Lithuania - 600 thousand, and in Moldova - more than 800,000. The vast majority of them left on the ballot papers the word "Yes."
Thus, the majority of citizens who participated in the referendum voted in favour of the need to preserve the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The results of the referendum have supreme legal force, and in the Law in the USSR "On the popular vote (referendum in the USSR)," it is stated clearly: "A decision taken by referendum in the USSR, is final and binding throughout the USSR, and may be revoked or modified only through a referendum."
References to the Ukrainian bourgeois democrats’ republican referendum, which was held on 1 December 1991, are absolutely untenable for the reasons mentioned above. In addition to the question of the referendum "Do you agree with the Act of Ukraine's independence?", there never was talk about the separation and independence of Ukraine outside of the USSR. According to Soviet Constitutions, as noted earlier, the sovereignty of all the union republics was guaranteed in the makeup of the union state, that is, the results of Ukrainian referendum from a legal point of view, in principle, did not change anything.
The leaders of Russia, Byelorussia and Ukraine, who met in Belovezha Pouche, crudely ignoring the will of the Soviet peoples to live in a single unified state, signed an agreement establishing the so-called Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). This act should be viewed as nothing other than a state crime with all its consequences: sooner or later there will be a peoples’ court trial held over the traitors of the Motherland, who must suffer the inevitable punishment.
Summarizing the above, we Bolsheviks note: The All-Union referendum held on March 17, 1991 should be considered from two sides.
On the one hand, there was no objective need for the referendum, but it was needed by the opportunist leadership of the country to push the idea of "renewal", i.e., capitalization, and making the process appear to have legal legitimacy. This political line on the creation of a "renewed union" is continued by the present day heirs of Gorbachev - the opportunists of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (CPRF), the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU), the Communist Party of Ukraine (CPU), the Communist Party of Belarus (CPB) and others. We Bolsheviks are conducting a relentless struggle against these opportunists- "renovationists, exposing their pernicious ideas aimed at compromise with the bourgeoisie.
On the other hand, our party makes extensive use of the positive results of the All-Union referendum as the legal justification of our struggle to fulfil the sacred will of the Soviet people - the revival of the Great Motherland – the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. This revival is only possible by way of a socialist revolution, the prerequisites of which are the result of the crisis throughout the world capitalist system that will all the more clearly mature in all the former Soviet republics.

ONLY IN STRUGGLE CAN WE WIN THE RIGHT TO A DIGNIFIED LIFE!
A.A. MAYEVSKY, secretary of the CC AUCPB.
Report on the meeting of the Bureau of the Central Committee of the AUCPB for Ukraine, Moldova and Transnistria

One year has passed from the date of assumption of office (25 February 2010) of the 4 th President of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovich. To commemorate this event, Viktor Yanukovych held a four-hour press conference at which answered questions from the audience and tried to sum up his first year. The results of a year of Yanukovych were summed up in the bourgeois weekly publication "2000", on the pages which questions were answered by the president of Ukraine, Vice Prime Minister Tigipko, ministers, MPs and other politicians, including NATO Secretary General, Mr. Anders Fogh Rasmussen.

The unprecedented attack by the regime of big capital of Yanukovych-Azarov on the rights of working people
The main result of Yanukovych's team is that in the words of the president "we have returned the country to the field of a real economy." Yanukovych also said that in 2011 "we will have it more difficult, but from 2012 things will begin to improve.
Why "we" will have it more difficult? (Similar to Cameron’s “We are “all” in this altogether” – But are we really “all” in it together?- FB)
The President named a number of reasons, but, summing up, the key is in the negative legacy that the current rulers were left with after the past Orange government predecessors. (Similar to Tory Cameron blaming the past Labour government for the mess Britain is in now– FB)
In particular, this is the world record in the economy's decline by 15%, the landing of the economy on a credit needle, resulting in the government on a monthly basis repaying debts of its predecessors amounting to $ 8 bln. (One billion U.S. dollars); the adventurous policies of the Tymoshenko government, which "instead of reforming the country, took to bribing the electorate," and virtually no headway in the Ukrainian economy during the five-year reign of the Yushchenko-Tymoshenko, when over 5 years, total GDP grew by 3.2 % ", etc. The president noted the positive dynamics of growth of GDP over the past year that was 4%.
And the President promised the citizens of Ukraine by the end of this year to bring the average pension ... right up to 1380 UAH(!), that all pensioners were "overwhelmingly happy" (Editor's note: $ 1 is approximately equal to 8 UAN).
The "crocodile tears" of pity flowed also from Deputy Prime Minister Tigipko. In an interview with a reporter from the weekly publication "2000", he had already publicly declared that he "does not like the proletariat." Vice versa. Now our esteemed Deputy Prime Minister is convinced that "citizens will accept and support the reforms."Well how can we not support them if, in his words, 2 million 800 thousand people receive a pension at the level of UAH 800, and 4 million 100 thousand receive 900 UAH, i.e. 7 million pensioners, about half of the available 14 million people of retirement age, receive a pension, on which you can not live. For this amount of pension, you can only pay for housing communial utilities and buy the cheapest medicine. There is not even enough money left over for bread. Therefore, our Deputy Prime-banker is confident that workers would support Ukraine's pension reform to extend the retirement age of women from 55 to 60 years, and men - from 60 to 62 (first – by separate categories, and then for all men). After all, this will bring further annual revenues of 500 million UAN to the Pension Fund (with a deficit in the fund of 40 billion UAH). The Deputy Prime Minister remains slyly silent that the average life span of men in Ukraine is those same 62 years old. Therefore, it is not the 500 million UAN that will plug a multibillion-dollar deficit in the pension fund (PF), but the fact that a pension that will not have to paid to the average man, because after 62 years of age, there will be a lot fewer men. And women will have to work another 5 years and plow on for the bourgeoisie in order to earn that same very pitiful 800-900 UAH. In this case, Tigipko himself does not need such a pension. And although officially it is believed that he has walked away from banking activities, his personal capital however, keeps growing. Currently Tigipko is among the 25 richest people of Ukraine with a capital of 510 million dollars (http://news.finance.ua/).
Much more open is loyal ally of Yanukovych, Prime Minister Mykola Azarov. He said from the beginning and still says that the reforms (adoption of Tax, Labour and Housing Codes, as well as carrying out pension and land reforms) will be arduous and painful. True, he does not say that they will be difficult and painful only for workers in Ukraine, but not for big business, for whom all these reforms and being carried out for.
As a result of more talks with the IMF mission in Ukraine, held from 1 to 14 February, according to Azarov, compromise has been reached "on most points of the memorandum on economic and financial policies of the Government of Ukraine in the next revision of the program of cooperation between Ukraine and the IMF."
And this compromise is that the price of gas for the population will be increased from April 1, not by 50%, but only by 30%, and this increase will take place in two stages: by 20% to 15 April and another 10% - July 1. But to compensate for gleaning from the population 20% for gas, the Government has obligations to the IMF to increase this year tariffs for public utilities on the whole by 62 %(!!). Their growth is also planned in two stages - twice by 26%: before 15 April and from 1 October 2011. And in Kiev, utility rates have increased by 30%.
The President had promised before the year-end an increase in average pension up to 1380 UAH a month. This will immediately be "eaten up" by the growth of tariffs for gas and utilities.
But the prices are rapidly growing not only on gas prices and utility bills. From February 1, a 30% rise in tariffs for the population for electricity if consuming over 150 kilowatt / hour per month.
Bread prices are rising. Analysts dealing with with agriculture, place responsiblity for this increase in bread prices on the worldwide trend rise in price of food. At a time when on the world market, a tonne of wheat costs at least $ 370-380 (about 2960-3040 UAN) in Ukraine the cost of procurement of 3rd class wheat (bread wheat, which goes to the production of flour) increased from 1,5 thousand UAH last summer to 2 - 2,1 thousand UAH per ton in early February 2011 and continues to rise. (P. Cherednichenko, "Commentary” № 755, 28.02.2011). Therefore, the flour mills are forced to raise the price of flour. And in Kharkov, for example, bread has risen in price by 15-36 kopecks. And in the Luhansk region, workers in some cities, for example, in Sverdlovsk, in general have been left without bread for several days, as flour mills have stopped supplying baking flour at a cheap price to achieve a price increase for flour and maintain "decent" level of profit. (For example, the capital of a Mr Yuri Kosyuk, owner of Mironovsky Bread Products stands at 930 million dollars. How can this "esteemed" gentleman sell bread at a cheap price, at a loss to his dear self?). At the same time in the same Sverdlovsk, in a large supermarkets, bread was in stock, but its price had jumped to 6-8 UAN a loaf.
Two years ago, Fidel Castro, in his "Reflections", wrote that the use of agricultural land for crop planting of canola and other crops that are used for biofuel production will lead to mass starvation in third world countries, due to a sharp rise in the price of food. Here in Ukraine, this process has begun.
The same excitement with buckwheat and soaring prices for this essential food for the people has been is caused by one thing. In Ukraine, the area under crops of buckwheat has been drastically reduced. As a result, the production of buckwheat during the years of "independence" in Ukraine has decreased by 2,3 times, from 420 thousand tons (1990) to 180 thousand tons (2009), while its yield dropping from 11.6 ton/ha to 7,6 ton/ha. But the amount of rapeseed production has increased from 90 thousand tons (1990) up to 1 million 14 thousand tons (2009), i.e., 11.3 times!
Generally, the attempt by Yanukovych to place full responsibility for the disastrous situation in Ukraine on his predecessors the Orange regime is sown with white thread. It's not about what kind of grouping of the bourgeoisie was or is in any given period in power. Yes, and Yanukovych before his presidency, was twice prime minister, and the second time already under Yushchenko, i.e., he occupied a key post in the Orange government.
The case lies in the willful destruction of the Soviet Union, the destruction of a single national economy and the transition to a capitalist path of development of Ukraine, as well as all the other republics of the former Soviet Union. That is shown by the immediate impact by the enrichment of small social stratum of property owners and reconstruction of a bourgeois class, on the one hand and, on the other, that led to massive impoverishment of many millions of working people, suddenly robbed and deprived of common ownership of means of production and turned into proletarians. Common ownership which was the economic foundation of socialism and the Soviet government, which ensured full employment and decent salaries, stipends, pensions, mass housing and the cheapest rent in the world; extremely cheap utilities and transport services (for example, one kilowatt per hour of electricity costed 4 kopecks., travel in a tram, trolley, bus, metro – 3 - 5 kopecks; for all the utilities we paid to ZhEKah, which, incidentally, carried out all its functions and ensured the maintenance of housing and communal services at the proper level; in Soviet Ukraine cars didn’t sink under asphalt due to breakage as a result of deterioration of sewer pipes, and pedestrians were not boiled alive in the sewers of hot water after falling down manhole covers that had been stolen for scrap metal), free education and health care, the rapid development of science, the highest level of culture, national in form and socialist in content. The Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic was among the ten most developed countries in the world, and the production of major industrial and agricultural production per capita occupied 1 - 3 place in Europe.
And now?! Statistics better than anything say everything. We present some of them (based on ZUBR-propaganda and the Cominform, www.cominformua.com), comparing the figures in 1990 and 2009.
Electricity production, in billions of kWh: 298.5 (1990) - 173.6 (2009), a decrease by 1,7 times, coal mining, in millions of tons: 155.5 and 55.0, respectively, i.e. an almost 3-fold reduction, and that, among other things, means the closure of hundreds of mines, massive unemployment among the miners and the complete decline of mining towns and villages, steel production, in millions of tonnes: 52.6 (1990) and 15.7 (2009 ), a decrease of 3,3 times, production of machine tools, per thousands of pieces: 37.0 and 0.1, i.e., a decrease of 370 times (!!), and indeed, metal cutting machines are the foundation of modern industry, and so without machine tools, can be no talk of any independent industry, and in fact, wholesale destruction of the industrial potential of Ukraine has occurred, production of sugar, in tons: 6791 - 1274.8, i.e., a reduction of almost 5.5 times. Ukraine under Soviet power provided the entire Soviet Union with cheap and good quality sugar (78 kopecks per kg, but now more than $10 / kg), and now sugar, as well as buckwheat is being bought from overseas (what an utter disgrace!), and 20 thousand tons of GM buckwheat which our "beloved" government of Azarov is promising to bring in from China. Over this period, over a hundred (!) sugar factories have been DESTROYED.
The destruction of socialist collective agricultural production and the destruction of agricultural engineering has led to the complete degradation and decline of all agribusiness. For example, the production of tractors during the period of "independence" has decreased from 106.2 thousand units to just 1,4 thousand units, i.e., more than 75 times (!). The rate of decline, or more accurately, destruction of livestock is shocking. Over the past 20 years, the number of cattle has decreased from 24 million 623 thousand heads, to 4 million 827 thousand, a decrease of 5 times; pigs – from 20 million 88 thousand heads to 7 million 677 thousand, a drop by 2.6 times, sheep and goats has decreased by 5 times! (These figures are fairly indicative of one thing: agriculture, and its animal breeding base has been deliberately destroyed by the current resurgent bourgeoisie. This is just the way it was done as in the early 30's by the Kulaks and semi-Kulaks, White Guards and their priests and the like, representatives of the former exploiting classes, who penetrated the rural Soviets councils and the kolkhoz (collective farms) . Modern nationalist propaganda falsely blames this on Stalin. But look now then, who is to blame, good gentlemen!? You cannot answer that? They will certainly answer for all their crimes against the working people of Ukraine, as well as against the entire Soviet people, they can be in no doubt about that. Remember, that their ruthless, barbaric attitude towards the people, the national wealth of our country, the USSR, and the plundering of its natural resources and raw materials will nurture a new STALIN, and all their campaigns of "de-Stalinization" of the public consciousness will certainly lead to the opposite result).
But one can not say that everything in Ukraine is so bad and that everything is in decline. There are "positive" dynamics. The production of vodka and alcoholic beverages increased from 30.9 million up to 55.4 million, 1.8 times; beer production, from 147.6 million given to 300 million, i.e., more than twice .
And it is not for nothing that Ukraine, according to WHO (World Health Organization), occupies an "honorable" in fifth place on alcohol consumption per capita. First place in this infamous list is Russia, followed by Hungary, the Czech Republic and Moldova. In this "honorable" five, as we see, there are three former Soviet republics, as well as two former socialist countries. People are drinking out of despair.
Our task, the task of the Bolsheviks, is to show a way out to the working people, which lies is one thing only - the destruction of bourgeois power.
And yet another thing the president of Ukraine said on the occasion of the anniversary of his presidency - the preparation of land reform, which will create a land market in Ukraine. The president will place the task in the first half of the year of drawing up and publishing a program of land reforms to get the land market up and running in 2012, It is the land of Ukraine, and its black soil remained the last of the national wealth of our country. And the present modern bourgeois rulers want to give the land to major local and foreign transnational capital, transnational corporations and banks. And no one should be misled into thinking that under the Constitution and relevant laws, the land is the "right of ownership by the Ukrainian people" (Constitution, article 13). Under the legal guise of fake owners, the real masters of the land will be Ukrainian oligarchs, as well as TNCs and TNBs. That will be the final enslavement of the Ukrainian peasantry, so cleanly robbed over 20 years of bourgeois reforms.
Of course, the workers of Ukraine are not sitting silently. Systematically, they break out in protest. I will cite some examples.
In early March, a rally in Kiev by small businesses was held against government reforms in the early winter, a strike took place by Kharkov drivers of electric transport (trams and trolleybuses). Medics at several district hospitals in Lvov region protested against health care reforms. Thus, the chairman of the trade union at Khodorovskii district hospital notes that there is not enough money to pay doctors and for current needs about at 1,6-2 million UAN. Deputy Minister of Health calls the legitimate demands of doctors and nurses, lies, claiming on television that in the Ukrainian health care system, everything is supposedly all right. As if debating with him, a health worker-union committee chairman says - try living on her salary at 1116 UAH: Bills have to be pay, a child sent to school and provided with all necessary things, and if one ends up hospital for a simple appendicitis operation, we'll write out a list of essential drugs and medications, as the hospital does not receive them, and then see how you can be treated on such a miserly salary.
A few words about local Mukachevo problems.
Yanukovych said that we are "going in to Europe."
The same way "we are going into Europe" in the town of Mukachevo.
The town central heating system has stopped working. And from next winter, in apartment buildings of Mukachevo, there will no longer be any centralised central heating. For over 4 months the elevators of 9 storey apartments blocks have not been working and our senior citizens, as in "civilized" Europe, climb to the 6 - 9-th floors up the stairs on foot. A family, mother and two children turned to the Editor of the AUCPB Bolshevik newspaper “Raboche-Krestyanskaya” (Workers 'and Peasants' Truth): the woman in her apartment in the early winter had her electric, then gas and heating cut off. It looks like we are going to be forced to have to live under such "European" conditions...

The task of the Bolsheviks is to instill class revolutionary consciousness in the ranks of the militant proletariat, unite and rally them to rise up to the struggle for the revolutionary destruction of capitalist rule, the struggle for the revival of our untied single Soviet Socialist Motherland.

About the events in the Middle East and North Africa. Libya
Since last December, there have been a series of so-called "colour revolutions" in countries of North Africa.
Tunisia. During the mass unrest from December 17, 2010 to January 14, 2011 the government of Ben Ali was overthrown.
Egypt. Mass rallies lasted about a month (from January 25 to February 11). The government of Hosni Mubarak was overthrown.
The social basis of these actions was the poverty of working people, on the one hand, and the extraordinary wealth of the ruling elite, on the other. Everything went along as Lenin said: the lower classes do not want to live in the old way, and are willing to do anything, even die in order to change their lives for the better, and the upper class is not in a position to rule in the old way. These are the objective factors of a revolutionary situation. But in order that the revolution was a true revolution, in which the change was not just a change of different factions of the exploiters at the pinnacle of power, but a change in the socio-economic system of the country where the working masses take power led by the working class, a “revolution” lacks the subjective factor of a true Revolution - a Marxist-Leninist revolutionary party, a party closely associated with fighting for the liberation of the people.
Therefore, all these "revolutions" are controlled by the West and implemented according to the Western scenario. These are the so-called first "internet revolutions" using the latest information technology (IT), social networks, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube. And the driving force behind these pseudo-revolutions was the well-do-do young people, including Western-educated people, using computers, the Internet, mobile communication, through which, so-called "Western values", Western-style democracy is imposed. (That is, advancements in IT technologies are used by the West against the masses, in the interests of monopoly capital, just as atomic energy can be used for peaceful purposes for the benefit of humanity and for war aims, destroying humanity in the process).
However, with the departure from power of the presidents of Tunisia and Egypt, the massive unrest continues. And they are due to the fact that the authorities have remained virtually the same ruling group, except for the presidents removed from the political arena, as the most notorious figures in the eyes of the people. For example, in Egypt, following the resignation of Hosni Mubarak, power is in the hands of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces of Egypt, of pro-American pro-Western orientation, the main pillar of the Mubarak regime.
In fact, we in these Arab countries are seeing the same tendency of the imperialist circles of the USA-Israel-NATO circles to replace the bankrupt pro-Western pro-American ruling regimes with others that will just as certainly not serve their people but their Western masters instead, just as was done earlier in Yugoslavia, then in Georgia, and Ukraine. The imperialists are trying to keep under their control and ideological influence the social mood of the masses, directing the legitimate grievances of peoples into the desired channel of imperialism. Therefore, we talk about these "revolutions" with quotation marks, because after they have been carried out, one grouping of pro-Western bourgeoisie pro-American orientation is replaced by another to the pinnacle of power, already openly serving their Western masters, openly betraying the national interests of their country, their people.

Libya.
No sooner had the "colour revolution" in Egypt toppled Mubarak, a few days later on 15 February, protests began in Libya. But they were not as widespread as they were in Tunisia and Egypt, when the protests involved hundreds of thousands, millions of workers, so cannot be called even a “colour revolution”. Rallies in Libya were attended by a thousand, or maximum of two thousand people.
The demands of the protesters were the same as those in Tunisia, and Egypt: the toppling of Muammar Qaddafi from power. To date, Libya is divided into two parts: the western country with the capital Tripoli, under the control of al-Qadhafi and his supporters, and the eastern city of Benghazi (the second largest city in Libya) under the control of the so-called "insurgents." In Benghazi, an interim government was formed, headed by former Justice Minister Mostafa Mohammad Abdul Jalil.
According to Western media, a number of senior Libyan diplomats broke off relations with the regime of Gaddafi and the Libyan representative to the UN accused Gadhafi of genocide and demanded his resignation.
The UN Security Council imposed sanctions against Libya, including banning a series of senior government officials and of al-Gaddafi, as well as their families from leaving the country; Libyan accounts in Western banks worth more than $ 30 billion were frozen, Libya was expelled from the UN Council on Human Rights; the supply of weapons to Libya stopped. On March 10-11 in Brussels at a meeting of the NATO Council and the European Council, use of sanctions against Libya was discussed, including the possibility of using military force, of the introduction of the so-called "no-fly-zone" where Libyan planes would be forbidden to fly over Libyan territory, etc.
Directly off the Libyan coast there are several U.S. Navy ships, including the largest aircraft carrier "Enterprise" with 65-85 aircraft on board (fighters, attack planes, anti-submarine and reconnaissance aircraft), Mount Whitney ship, amphibious "Kersadzh ship. In general, off the coast of Africa, at time of writing were 23 warships and vessels supporting the 2 nd and 6 th U.S. Naval fleets, which, according to U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates "were ready for use when the appropriate decision was made." The composition of the group's ships also includes several amphibious ships with 1600 Marines, armed with tanks, artillery, helicopters. Finally, strategic nuclear submarines armed with ballistic nuclear missiles arrived.
It should be noted that the situation in Libya is fundamentally different from the situation in Tunisia and Egypt.
Libya is the richest country in Africa. It has the largest oil reserves in Africa (2% of world supply, 8-th in OPEC). According to the World Bank, the Libyan economy in terms of GDP, equals to $ 62.36 billion (2009) is 63rd in the world, in terms of GDP per capita, equal to $ 14,594 per year, Libya is among the 50 most highly developed countries, ranking 43rd place (2007). It should be noted that Ukraine on this indicator, is equal to 6,9 thousand dollars per year, occupies 81-st place.
Until 1943, Libya was a colony of Italy and then it was occupied by France and Britain.
On September 1, 1969 in Libya, there was a revolution. A group of young officers (the so-called "The Free Officers Movement, Unionists and Socialists") led by Captain Muammar Gaddafi (now a colonel, born 07/06/1942), overthrew the monarchy of King Idris I. Afterwards, the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya (from the Arabic "Jamahiriya" – the masses) was formed.
Exports of crude oil gives 90% of state budget revenues. These payments are not stolen and no one aquires them, but they are forwarded to the welfare of the people.
As a result, in Libya there is strong social security of workers. Allowance at the birth of each child is 5 thousand euros (about 55 thousand UAH.) and Libyan families on average, have three children. The average salary is one thousand dollars a month (in Ukraine, according to Prime Minister Mykola Azarov, the average salary in Ukraine is 2300 UAH, i.e. less than $ 300 a month). In Libya, education and health are free. One child in each family gets education abroad paid for by the state. Gas for domestic use is free. Fuel at petrol stations is sold at prices subsidized by the state, i.e. at very low prices. At the expense of the state's care of its people over the last 30 years, the population in Libya has increased 3 times and reached 6.3 million people. (And throughout the years of independence, since 1951, it has grown by 6 times). The average life expectancy is 77.5 years, for Libyans (including women - almost 80 years (79.88) Men - 75), i.e. comparable with the average life expectancy of Western Europeans. At the same time in Ukraine, the average life expectancy during the years of "independence" from the USSR has fallen to 67 years, including women - 73,4 years, men - 61,5.
The population of Libya are Arabs, and there are a small number of Berbers and Tuaregs, as well as remnants of former conquerors - the Turks and Italians. There are several communities of Copts.
Muammar Qaddafi himself came from the nomadic Bedouin tribe of al-Gaddafi. In the early 80's, Gadhafi renounced all offices of State, lives in a Bedouin tent and left himself the single title of "leader of the Libyan revolution." The power base in Libya are the people's committees.
The West played on ethnic-tribal contradictions, as well as on the desire of individual tribal leaders to enrich themselves on oil rent at the expense of the people. The colonizers, leaving Libya in 1951, left power to the tribes inhabiting the eastern region (Cyrenaica), now held by the "rebels", and if without the quotation marks, then counter-revolutionaries.
The Western world's media – the loud mouth of US-Zionist capital, presents information from Libya in a totally distorted view that is favorable to them. The Libyan air force is bombing not peaceful demonstrators but military bases and weapons caches seized by counter-revolutionaries.
On 22 February, Gaddafi spoke in an old barracks building, half-destroyed by an American airstrike in 1986, with a television address to the nation (we recall that during one of the U.S. airstrikes on Libya, predators killed Gaddafi's adopted daughter).
In a televised speech Gaddafi said that he could not leave the government because he is "no ordinary man, or even a president, but the leader of a revolution." "This is my country, the country of my ancestors!" proudly stated the leader of the Libyan people. Gaddafi emphasized that groups of teenagers under the influence of drugs attacked police stations and army bases, that the riots in Libya were "initiated from outside” that armed mercenaries from Africa arrived in Libya to overthrow his regime. He promised to form new people's committees.
In his televised speech Gaddafi said that the unrest in Libya is part of a foreign plan - "to break up Libya into several warring Islamic emirates – similar to Afghanistan, then U.S. and NATO troops could enter and seize the country's wealth." "Where were you all when Muammar Gaddafi fought against America, and then rebuilt Benghazi brick by brick?" rhetorically asked the leader of the Libyan revolution. Gaddafi also read a few articles of the criminal law, envisaging the death penalty for various crimes against the state. And Gaddafi finished his speech off with a promise to purge Libya of opponents of the regime "from house to house."
In Tripoli, weapons were handed out to all the supporters of al-Gaddafi.
It is clear that if the regime of Gaddafi did not enjoy an overwhelming majority of popular support, the government never would have taken such a step as the distribution of weapons among the people.

The struggle for oil and natural raw materials is
economic basis of contemporary world politics

Since October 1, 2008 the United States Africa Command, (AFRICOM) became operational, the decision on the establishment of which was taken by President Bush in February 2007. Within the scope of "AFRICOM" enter the entire African continent except Egypt, which remained "under direct responsibility” of the Unified Combatant Command unit / U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM) responsible for operations in the Middle East and Central Asia. As stated by the U.S. military leadership, the new command was created to help "stabilize the situation in African countries, promoting peace and security." In addition, the command will "coordinate the work of the Pentagon's support of U.S. government programs in Africa in diplomacy and development."
According to experts, the creation of this command marks the beginning of a new U.S. policy on the African continent, in particular, an opposition to increased Chinese influence in Africa, because China has so far become the second economic partner after the United States of the Black continent.
TNCs and TNBs are attracted to Africa’s vast reserves of gold, platinum, diamonds, rare earth elements, etc. But the main thing is that it attracts foreign capital, especially the U.S. imperialists and the West to Africa, in this case, to the Arab countries in North Africa and the Middle East for of course, the oil.
Experts estimate that proven world oil reserves will last another 40 years, i.e. until about 2050. There are still undiscovered oil reserves, which may last another 10 to 40 years.
In other words, oil is rapidly running out.
In his reflections, Fidel Castro noted that coal is the energy base of capitalism, article 19.; oil is the energy base of modern capitalism, i.e. imperialism of the 20th and early 21th century.
With the depletion of oil, the era of the domination of capitalism in its higher imperialist stage will end.
The current level of development of productive forces has created a new nuclear energy base, and creates thermo nuclear energy, an energy that will become the base of the coming communist formation (based on what we know from the current level of development).
Imperialism can not emerge from the crisis into which it plunges more and more, without unleashing new wars and military conflicts in order to establish full control over the oil resources of the planet to renew their worthless existence.
On March 11, mass unrest broke out in Saudi Arabia, the biggest oil exporter in the world. There are continuing mass demonstrations in other countries in the region.
On the background of developments in North Africa, the joint military exercises conducted by the United States-South Korea, which were taking place off the coast of the DPRK were somehow overshadowed during that same time period. In different regions of the world, the imperialists are aggravating the situation, provoking conflicts in order to destroy rebels, to force their will on all countries and peoples, to force all nations to work for US-Zionist capital.
Imperialism is economically obsolete. But by itself it will not go away from the historical arena. To the objective factors of a revolution must be added the subjective factor. Namely, we need a Marxist-Leninist party of a Bolshevik revolutionary type which is closely connected to the masses.
This party is our party - the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks – the AUCPB. And our urgent task is to connect our daily party work with the masses struggle for their rights, to instill into the ranks of struggling workers Bolshevik revolutionary consciousness, to lead the struggle of the masses to free themselves from exploitation and oppression.

RESOLUTION
By the Bureau of the CC AUCPB for Ukraine, Moldova and Transnistria
Having heard and discussed the report of the Secretary of the Central Committee of the AUCPB, chairman of the Central Committee of the Bureau of the AUCPB for Ukraine, Moldova and Transnistria "Only in struggle can we win the right to a decent life!", the Bureau of the Central Committee of the AUCPB

NOTES THAT:
1. The world situation continues to steadily deteriorate. Modern imperialism, mired in a global financial and economic crisis, finds no way out of it, except by way of inciting new wars and military conflicts in the struggle for full control over natural resources and raw materials of the planet, primarily oil and gas.
2. In this regard, one should also consider developments in the countries of North Africa and the Middle East, as the first so-called "Internet revolutions" carried out to replace the discredited pro-Western regimes (Tunisia, Egypt) with other regimes, loyal and totally controlled by Western imperialism, U.S. imperialism, Israel and NATO. Mass protests are happening and in other countries: Algeria, Yemen, Kuwait, Oman and others. Mass protests started in Saudi Arabia, the largest manufacturer and exporter of oil in the world.
3. Under this same scenario is happening the so-called "revolution" in Libya. But here, the West has been faced with the stubborn resistance of the people, in their mass, devotees to Muammar Gaddafi and ready with weapons in hand to protect the gains of the Libyan Revolution in 1969.
Drawing on all sorts of comprador and treacherous elements using ethnic-tribal conflict, US-Israel-NATO imperialism threatened (and carried out-FB) to use force against Libya to overthrow the Gaddafi regime and take control of the largest oilfields in the country. (Libya is the largest oil producer in Africa and 8 th country among the members of OPEC).
4. US-Israel-NATO seek to take full control of the Suez Canal and the Persian Gulf to monitor the transport of oil and other natural raw materials and goods, including into China, which has now become the second largest economy after the U.S., a country with its own financial and economic influence in Africa, as well as to pursue to further ruthlessly exploit and plunder the peoples and nations throughout Africa, with its rich deposits of gold, platinum, uranium, petroleum, copper, cobalt, rare earth elements and other natural raw materials and mineral resources.
5. The strategic aim of U.S. imperialism is the conquest of Iran, DPRK (North Korea), Cuba, Venezuela, to get rid of unwanted regimes conducting separate and independent internal and external policies, and to establish full control over the world. In this regard, US-Zionist capital is conducting incessant work on the final enslavement of Russia and its transformation into a colonial raw material appendage of the West, as well as to prevent the transformation of China as imperialist China, into the largest economy in the world.
6. In Ukraine, the Yanukovych-Azarov regime, a regime of big business, using the passivity of the masses, continues an unprecedented attack on the rights of working people. By negotiation with the IMF, there are planned regular increases in gas tariffs for households by 30%, 62% - for utility bills. The plans of the bourgeois power include a pension reform with higher retirement ages: women - from 55 to 60 years, men - from 60 to 62 years, land reform with the creation of a land market for agricultural purposes, i.e. with the actual transition of Ukrainian black soil over to ownership by local oligarchs and transnational capital, and the transformation of peasants into slaves on land taken from them, the adoption of a Labour Code, sharply undermining workers' rights, the Housing Code that effectively deprives workers' rights to housing, etc. The AUCPB

ORDERS:
1. Continue to conduct active agitation-propaganda work to expose the aggressive essence of contemporary U.S.-Western imperialism, which is on the verge of death and trying to slow down its inevitable end by fomenting wars and military conflicts, in order to establish full control over the natural raw materials and oil and gas resources of the planet, with a view of enslavement of all peoples and nations to delay imperialism’s inevitable death.
2. To expose the regime of Yanukovych-Azarov, the regime of big capital, conducting an exit policy of Ukraine from the crisis on the back of an unprecedented assault on the rights of working people and further rapid decline in living standards in Ukraine.
3. Explain to the peoples’ masses that to achieve a radical improvement of their lives, the power of capital has to be destroyed, and Soviet power restored, Ukraine returned to the socialist path of development, the Soviet Union revived, and that this is only by way a socialist revolution, when millions of working people will rise up to fight for their rights, for their liberation from exploitation and oppression.
4. Instill Bolshevik class consciousness into the ranks of the working class, working people, spreading Bolshevik press and literature, increasing subscriptions to the Bolshevik newspaper “Workers' and Peasants' truth” (Raboche-Krestyanskaya Pravda”. Local party organizations are to move over to the systematic production of leaflets on topical issues of everyday life of working people, exposing the anti-national character of the local bourgeois power.
