INTRODUCTION

Revolutionary Greetings and salutes!

We sincerely thank the organizers of this historic conference. The only way that we can pay you back is by taking the resolutions and putting them into practice among our People at all levels, but especially at the Base where our People live and struggle in the villages, cities and communities.

We must strengthen the World Anti-Imperialist Platform

Quantitatively, the revolutionary forces in the world are more than the imperialists, neo-colonialists, zionists and reactionaries. The key to victory is to Strengthen of the World Anti-Imperialist Platform, which has as a pre-requisite for each of the revolutionary Parties and workers organisations to strengthen our close relations with our People, led by our Culture. The People and the Party must be one! The Party is the instrument of the People, by the People and for the People. The PARTY IS THE GUARANTEE OF THE REVOLUTION!

We have seen great examples of victories such as the defeat by the organized People of Cuba against invasions, assassinations, blockade and sanctions on top of sanctions. We have seen and continue to see the resistance of the People of Venezuela. The People of Guinea-Bissau and Guinea-Conakry gave Humanity a victory against Portuguese colonialists and their NATO masters, not only during the invasion of 22 November 1970, but up until today in 2026 where the imperialists use their neo-colonial puppets to carry out a coup d’état against the winners of the recent Elections of 23 November 2026, invade and violently occupy of Party Headquarters, kidnap our PAIGC President, Brother and Comrade Domingos Simões Pereira while they persecute, assassinate our comrades and suppress the press and political gatherings. Our People guided by our Party PAIGC, continue to resist and shall win! We count on your continued solidarity.

Our comrades of Iran and the “Axis of Resistance” (Yemen, Hezbollah and revolutionary forces inside of Iraq) continue to defeat zionist and yankee U.S. imperialists genocide against the People of Palestine and invasions of Iran and Lebanon.

Desperate from the determination of the revolutionary forces of Russia who continue to defeat the imperialists in Ukraine, blocking further expansion of NATO in that region, while simultaneously the revolutionaries organized in revolutionary parties of various parts of Asia blocking further expansion of NATO in South-East Asia.

Even inside of the metropoles of imperialist countries the revolutionary consciousness of the People is increasing with Anti-War Movements, People’s Resistance and Uprisings. The Class Struggle is intensifying, consequently strengthening Mass Organizations and United Fronts.

We are in harmony as we strengthen Anti-imperialist coordination in the World Anti-Imperialist Platform.

This historic process must be guided by theory: ideals and correct lines to reinforce the revolutionary front against imperialism. Those who absorb revolutionary theories and put them into honest practice among our People are transformed into self-conscious revolutionaries.

Amílcar Cabral reminds us that “…every practice produces a theory, and that if it is true that a revolution can fail even though it be based on perfectly conceived theories, nobody has yet made a successful revolution without a revolutionary theory…”

 “…we must recognize that we ourselves and the other liberation movements in general have not managed to pay sufficient attention to this important problem of our common struggle.

The ideological deficiency, not to say the total lack of ideology, within the national liberation movements—which is basically due to ignorance of the historical reality which these movements claim to transform—constitutes one of the greatest weaknesses of our struggle against imperialism, if not the greatest weakness of all. We believe, however, that a sufficient number of different experiences have already been accumulated to enable us to define a general line of thought and action with the aim of eliminating this deficiency. A full discussion of this subject could be useful, and would enable this conference to make a valuable contribution towards strengthening the present and future actions of the national liberation movements. This would be a concrete way of helping these movements, and in our opinion no less important than political support or financial assistance for arms and suchlike…”

Our revolutionary parties are the politically organized manifestation of our People’s culture.

Amílcar Cabral reminds us that National Liberation is an act of Culture. 

Our ideology comes from our culture, which is the fruit of our history.

“…The value of culture as an element of resistance to foreign domination lies in the fact that culture is the vigorous manifestation on the ideological or idealist plane of the physical and historical reality of the society that is dominated or to be dominated. Culture is simultaneously the fruit of a people’s history and a determinant of history, by the positive or negative influence which it exerts on the evolution of relationships between man and his environment, among men or groups of men within a society, as well as among different societies…” National Liberation and Culture (1970)

Ideology rooted in culture regulates relations in action. From cultural practice, our ideology develops and our new society emerges. To achieve our objective, we must resolve the ideological deficiency.

PAIGC IS A REVOLUTIONARY PAN-AFRICANIST MASS PARTY GUIDED BY AMÍLCAR CABRAL THOUGHT IS A SOCIALIST PARTY

The African Party of Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde (PAIGC), the revolutionary Pan-Africanist Mass Party guided by Amílcar Cabral Thought is a socialist Party that is honored to be together with other socialist and communist Parties to learn from each other and intensify coordination against the rising tide of world war. Together revolutionary forces will out power imperialist waves with revolutionary socialist tsunamis. 

COORDINATE OUR IDEOLOGICAL TRAINING PROCESSES

We must coordinate our ideological training processes without dogma, and have systematic political ideological exchanges.

Amílcar Cabral reminds us that; “…People are sacrificing for better schools, access to health care, better lives and not of ideas in other people’s heads…” This doesn’t mean that we minimize ideological struggle. Practice has shown us that like Karl Marx said; “…Philosophers have hitherto only interpreted the world in various ways; the point is to change it…”

“…Now is the time for actions; not words…” (Amílcar Cabral)

A luta..continua!

Victoria é Certa

Onward to Final Victory!

THANK YOU!

READY FOR THE REVOLUTION!
