Solidarity with the Ukrainian people
Against imperialist interventions – Against the EU-IMF pillaging
through Memoranda of Understanding
ANTARSYA addresses a message of solidarity to the Ukrainian people who
are going through difficult times.
The government change brought about in a coup-d’état manner that
came after a political conflict with hundreds killed and thousands wounded in
Kiev, is the result of a relentless conflict between groups torn by the economic
and political oligarchy that has been ransacking the country after the dissolution
of the Soviet Union. The root causes of the crisis and conflicts can be found
in decades of poverty, along with the attack on social rights and democratic
freedoms by the Yanukovych government.
At this juncture, we are
witnessing a clash between, the nationalist armed militias with a fascist
ideology and Nazi origins, on one hand, who are supported and equipped by the
EU and the US and, on the other hand, the state repressive forces of
Yanukovych’s authoritarian regime supported by Russia.
The people of Ukraine find themselves in straitjacket in two
imperialisms; That of Russia wanting to preserve by any means its political
and economic dominance in the region and that of the EU, with Germany and the
U.S. in the leading role, which through the connection with the EU and NATO
attempts the annexation of territories, states and economies in the chariot of
the European and American capital respectively.
The first coup organized by the EU, spearheaded and led by the
fascist extreme right and neo-Nazis forces the masks to drop and proves that
the EU not only does not guarantee democracy in Europe, but spearheads its
undermining.
The first indications from the
new Ukrainian regime, as well as the EU/US position point to an attempt at chaining the country in the shackles NATO,
IMF and EU-imposed Memoranda, along with attacking the democratic and social rights of the Ukrainian people.
"Europeanization" and "reforms" will be nothing more than a
new ransacking of Ukraine’s natural resources and wealth that will only benefit
local oligarchs, and US and EU capital. This development makes possible the
very explosion of civil war, and the division and dissolution of the country.
ANTARSYA denounces the
reactionary manipulation to outlaw Ukraine’s Communist Party by the EU- and US-supported
government. ANTARSYA stands alongside struggling forces, leftists, communists
and anti-fascists, who, in difficult circumstances, are trying with toil and
selflessness, to bring to the forefront of the battle taking place in the
streets, the real problems of the Ukrainian people.
