The world is entering a new phase of its development, which is characterized by growing contradictions both between and within classes. 

We see the system formed after the Second World War collapsing before our eyes. 

The economic system based on the principles of market, capitalist economy, free movement of capital, formation of powerful financial centers has faced a powerful crisis capable of destroying it. 

The communist movement, unfortunately, is approaching this crisis unprepared ideologically, organizationally and financially. This situation must be corrected as soon as possible and a real and fairer alternative must be offered to humanity.

The basis of such an alternative could be a world order in which there is no hegemon dictating its will and imposing its rules on billions of people. That is, a multipolar world order. Only then will progressive forces have a chance to abandon the capitalist model of economic management, first in one political-economic cluster that emerged as a result of the destruction of the unipolar world, and then in others. 

Today, as a hundred years ago, Russia is the battering ram that will break the world order conceived after World War II and finally formed in the nineties of the last century, after the destruction of the Soviet Union. And this is not only because Russia is conducting a Special Military Operation against the puppets of imperialism in Ukraine, who are killing ordinary people with the hands of neo-Nazis, but also because Russia is creating alternative platforms for the formation of a new, multipolar world. 

Russia’s victory in Ukraine will entail a chain reaction that could lead to the final loss of the U.S. hegxonist position. And today, fearing their defeat in Ukraine, Western elites are preparing a terrible nuclear provocation. President Vladimir Zelensky has clearly stated that the armed forces of the Kiev regime must have nuclear weapons. Given the fact that Ukraine has nuclear technology, the technical realization of this project is quite realistic. 

In these conditions, when the world elite is faced with the loss of control over the political situation, the main task of the communist movement is to break the old world order. Unfortunately, some leftist organizations and parties have fallen under the influence of imperialist structures, various foundations and NGOs, and have taken a position contrary to the interests of the world proletariat. As a result of incorrect analysis of the situation, such leftists support the Ukrainian neo-Nazis or simply withdraw from the struggle that is taking place on the territory of the former USSR. 

Today the class struggle is intensifying all over the world. We see a large-scale redistribution of markets and natural resources. We see an attack on workers’ rights in different parts of the world. And we can only succeed in our struggle together – if we can unite our efforts. 

Today, more than ever, it is important to strengthen coordination between the various organizations and parties fighting against imperialism. Today, it is important for us to have a clear structure built on the principles of democratic centralism. It is important for all of us to find sources of funding for our struggle and coordination structure. It is important for us to have a proper organization of information work, professional and not amateur. We all face a whole series of tasks, and we all have a huge amount of work to do. But, as Stalin said, “There are no fortresses that the Bolsheviks cannot take!”, so let’s get to work, comrades!
