Algerian Party for Democracy and Socialism (PADS): "The multipolar world is only a deadly illusion"

“As communists, we consider that it is a mistake to side with Russian imperialism in the name of the advent of a “multipolar world”. This “multipolar world” is only a deadly illusion”, points out the Algerian Party for Democracy and Socialism (Parti Algérien pour la Démocratie et le Socialisme - PADS) in its contribution at the 22nd International Meeting of Communist and Workers' Parties (IMCWP) which was held in Havana on 27-29 October 2022.
