In the following we document the preliminary translation of the message of the Communist Party of Ecuador - Red Sun to the international celebration of the 200th anniversary of the birth of Karl Marx. The final revision is pending. The Spanish original can be found here.
FOR THE UNITY ON THE IDEOLOGY IN THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNIST MOVEMENT
We express our warmest greetings to our almighty ideology of the proletariat, marxism-leninism-maoism, principally maoism; to Gonzalo Thought and its contributions to marxism-leninism-maoism. The People’s Wars that is being waged in India, Turkey, Philippines and Peru. To all Parties and Organizations present in this transcendental event for the international proletariat; we greet the International Communist Movement that in the midst of an incontrovertible two lines struggle is developing an important and relentless struggle against the neo revisionism presented by the rats Avakian and Prachanda, who de facto brought the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement (RIM) to its liquidation; to the right opportunist lines in Peru that turned into enemies of the class, the People’s War in Peru and of maxism-leninism-maoism in the world.
We renew our commitment to defend the life of Chairman Gonzalo, great leadership of CPP, of the People’s War in Peru and of the contributions to maoism with Gonzalo thought; a greet in particular to the comrades of the Committee Red Flag from Germany, its leaders, cadres and militants, who in the current circumstances organized this meeting and persist on holding high the invincible banner of marxism-leninism-maoism, of gonzalo thought and the People’s War as strategy of the power of the proletariat until communism.
The crisis of imperialism shows before the peoples of the world that this is incompatible with the progress of humanity, however, today it opposes to revolution with all possible means and try to avoid its definitive bankruptcy. Genocides, pit people against people, unleash the most horrible brutality like the one evident in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Palestine and others, these are the palpable evidence of what imperialism is ready to do to materialize its survival and concrete the new repartition of the planet. No method, no matter how cruel and pragmatic it is, is strange to its counterrevolutionary goals. It was like this yesterday, is like this today and like this will be forever. Because of this, to counter reactionary, imperialist, violence with revolutionary violence is justified and what we who are for revolution must do. Any other idea does not fit to our class conception, does not correspond to marxism-leninism-maoism.
Just like it can not be other way, the inter-imperialist contradictions also are recreated and manifest in Equator, and in this opportunity, with the haste and outrage of the Yankee imperialist superpower that tries to consolidate positions that allow them to recover Latin America as its indispensable rearguard, has targeted our country to be converted into a strategic support to the consolidated plans together with Colombia (lackeys of imperialism and the OTAN in South America) to control the region in the new political geometry brought by the imperialist powers of the world.
In this context, a series of contradictions were fomented in the country that led us to live situations of direct confrontation with the enemy, deeds that little by little are marking a new scenery of bloody struggle not only for the communists and the people of Equator, but for the international proletariat.
Comrades, for many months we worked in the possibility to be together with you in this valuable event to forge the unity on the ideology of the international proletariat, the struggle for the united international conference of a new type, however, to move in the current circumstances to attend to a meeting demands efforts in all levels, resources and security elements that today should be adjusted to the priority that our party has in the handling of our difficult scenery in the strategic plan to prepare and develop the People’s War.
In every way, we allow ourselves to reaffirm our deep subjection to all decisions that the meeting takes always and when the ideological unity of the international proletariat is reaffirmed and pointed. In the acknowledgement and militant support to the People’s Wars in India, Philippines, Turkey and Peru. The firm and incontrovertible struggle against the neo revisionism showed by the reactionary hoax and mamotreto de marras of avakianism, prachandaism and right opportunist line that manifests not only in Peru but already given means to approach and impinge against the People's War in the countries where the proletariat is waging it.
Although is certain what was presented in the previous paragraph and that we understand that it can not be but the product of two lines struggle, criticism, self-criticism, and that enunciate the elements that we consider key in unity of the International Communist Movement, we allow ourselves to manifest our firm and absolute acknowledgement of the great leadership of Chairman Gonzalo and the People’s War in Peru, Gonzalo thought and its contributions to marxism-leninism-maoism. We insist in this last speech for considering it vital facing the development of the People’s War in Peru and its influence in the People’s Wars that today are developed and prepared in the world.
The acknowledgement of gonzalo thought and the great leadership of Chairman Gonzalo is an acknowledgement of the necessity to follow the task that not only is up to the proletariat in Peru of the general reorganization of CPP in the midst of the People’s War to victoriously carry on forward until the seizure of power in the whole country, culminate the democratic revolution of a new type, resume the war until communism, but it is also related with the tasks that the proletariat in all countries to carry on, countries which in preponderant way has some sort of identity, with similar characteristics, above all the ones characterized as semifeudal and semicolonial.
We have seen in many sceneries. In Brazil, even in Peru, in Chile, Bolivia, Equator, Colombia, Mexico and other many countries where communists build or reconstitute parties with solid ideological base, MLM, but they were only able to take leaps of giants while adjusting its processes of construction or ideological regrouping while also having ideological and Gonzalo thought grounds and the defense of the great leadership of Chairman Gonzalo as the great leader of the revolution in Peru. It is the most important, but it is the same in Germany and Austria, where this element is put in bigger tension, because Germany is an imperialist monster and Austria is far from being a semifeudal country, anyways, the communists while embracing Gonzalo Thought have also succeed to excel on building the instruments of basic organization of the proletariat to advance on its strategic purposes of seizing power. And the facts speak for themselves, there are progresses, we are gaining borders against the reaction and will not take long that with all this ideological arsenal we will scourge the People’s Wars in the world and will not leave any remnant of imperialism neither stone over stone of the old power, the reaction and its strategic ally: revisionism.
Gonzalo thought has been something more that incidental in our countries, it has been determinant to leave old practices behind that in one or another way have let us to centrism, staticism, petty bourgeois militarism, to be permeable to avakianism, to prachandaism; to understand in better and larger way how revisionism of a new type drags the class and the peoples to capitulation, to transit the bureaucratic road, of guerrilla errantism that embraces opportunist and revisionist old positions showed in guevaraism, bolivarism, socialism of the XXIth century, or to attempt giving new meaning to the bourgeois-landord democracy; in definitive, giving space for conclusive capitulation pushing the masses to the gorge of history.
The new great wave of the world proletarian revolution is being bred each time more powerful, and it is evident how much and in which conditions marxism-leninism-maoism is strengthened with Gonzalo thought for its development to be more decisive and with greater capacity to resist the strongest storms breed by imperialism, the reaction and revisionism.
It is not new that we who embraces Gonzalo thought are advancing in the realm of the People’s War. This is not a product of historical causality, it is a product of the social practice; the contribution is evident, the lessons are clear and, while put into tension in the struggle to prepare the People's War, gives results. For us, the ideological struggle is inseparable from the political struggle, from the concentric construction of the three instruments and the mass work is part of the concentric construction of the three instruments of the revolution and the militarization of the Party in the midst of the construction, preparation and development of the People's War, which means, the mass work is within and for the People’s War.
Nevertheless, neither is new and also evidently result that those who embrace marxism-leninism-maoism and that once they move away and disdain gonzalo thought, Chairman Gonzalo, are expired, have stalled, pursue the retreat that the tactical goes into strategic; others have being easy prey for the right opportunist line, of the ROL and not few of the escepticismo and of the lack of communist moral that stagnated into revolutionary inactivity.
By the exposed, we mark in fire all the intent to undermine the People’s War in Peru, for not acknowledging Chairman Gonzalo as the great leader of the People’s War in Peru, Gonzalo thought and its contributions to MLM. We mark in fire all of those who undermines the ideological unity of the proletariat in marxism-leninism-maoism; the People’s Wars until communism. We mark in fire all of those who support the ROL in Peru and in any place in the world. We mark in fire the capitulation, revisionism and opportunism of any kind. We mark in fire the centrism that is always, lastly, servile to the reaction.
Comrades, we wish nothing but success in this important meeting, may the two lines struggle flourish as the only way to consolidate correct positions for the international proletariat and its transforming role for the societies until communism.
