DEM VOLKE DIENEN

The signature of the Committee for Construction of the Communist Party (maoist) Galicia (Spanish State) was added to the declaration.

We want to publish a report of Mayday 2019 in Austria. Correspondents of the "Antifaschistische Aktion - Infoblatt" brought together reports from Vienna, Graz, Linz, Vorarlberg, Salzburg and Innsbruck.

In the following, we present a brief summary of dozens of actions, reports, images and videos taken from nearly all continents. The attempt was made to give a comprehensive overview, although there are certainly shortcomings. We express our salutations to all actions developed in service of the Proletarian World Revolution by our comrades throughout the world in their magnificent efforts for this 1st of May.

In Bremen, a revolutionary internationalist demonstration was organized this year, for the first time, organized by an alliance of different organizations and groups.

Beginning on the 23rd of May the elections of the European Union are going to take place, lasting until the 26th. Preparing for a couple of months, the propaganda of the bourgeois parties is now fully on the way, with their poster, slogans and campaigns about the greatness (or not-so greatness) of the EU. However, an eye catching similarity in between the countries of the EU is not only the common propaganda for the EU Elections, but also the deep rejection of the masses, who - venting their anger - commence everywhere to destroy and trash electoral materials in great numbers. Revolutionaries in different countries – such as Sweden for example - have already started to develop their own boycott campaigns against the EU. Now a joint declaration of several Marxist-Leninist-Maoist Parties and Organizations follows suit, kicking off a joint campaign to boycott the elections with common posters, slogans, declarations, etc.

In a common effort several Marxist-Leninist-Maoist Parties and Organisations put forward a joint Mayday declaration this year, that was published in Spanish and English on the Mayday itself, but since then has already been tranlsated into French and Finnish as well as into German.

Furthermore, since the release of the statement, comrades from the Communist Nucleus Nepal have expressed their desire to join the list of signatories of the declaration. We ask all comrades who mirrored the Spanish and English declaration or its translations, to update their list of signatories correspondingly.

The elections to the National Assembly are still going on in India. Thus, the People's Liberation Guerrilla Army, under the leadership of the Communist Party of India (Maoist), has carried out several campaigns for an active election boycott since our last article.
