Ukraine: Zelensky’s regime intensifies persecution of the Kononovich Brothers

The case of the Kononovich brothers (Mikhail and Alexander) has entered a new and deeply alarming phase, revealing with even greater clarity the nature of their persecution by the reactionary Ukrainian regime. 

After years of detention, surveillance, and legal harassment, a recent development has not brought relief—but intensified danger. The sudden removal of their electronic monitoring devices, reportedly carried out without a corresponding judicial decision, has not meant freedom. 

 

What If Cuba Had Nuclear Weapons? The Limits of “Peaceful Coexistence”

By Nikos Mottas

Today, more than six decades after the Cuban Revolution, the United States continues to enforce one of the most prolonged and comprehensive systems of economic warfare in modern history. The blockade—tightened, codified, and expanded over decades—seeks not merely to pressure, but to suffocate. 

Sanctions on fuel, financial strangulation, extraterritorial enforcement, and constant efforts to disrupt Cuba’s access to energy and trade are not isolated measures; they form a coherent strategy aimed at exhausting a society that refuses to abandon its chosen path.

Cuba responds firmly to U.S destabilization attempts: Morón vandalism denounced by revolutionary forces

A Marxist-Leninist Critique of Jürgen Habermas

By Nikos Mottas

The death of Jürgen Habermas closes the life of one of the most influential intellectual figures of postwar Europe. For more than half a century his name stood at the center of debates about democracy, rationality and the public sphere. 

Few philosophers shaped so decisively the language through which Western Europe interpreted its own political legitimacy after 1945. 

From Bay of Pigs to Speedboats: Trump Still Doesn’t Get It

There are moments when the class character of imperialist aggression reveals itself with brutal clarity. February 25, 2026, was one such moment. Cuban border guards intercepted a Florida-registered speedboat just one nautical mile off Cayo Falcones in Villa Clara province. The vessel carried ten armed Cuban exiles operating from U.S. soil. 

 

When the patrol approached to enforce sovereignty, the infiltrators opened fire. Cuban forces defended themselves, killing four − including at least one U.S. citizen − and wounding six. 

 

Why is it important for Communist and Workers Parties to meet in Havana this year?

                 By Nahide Özkan* 

 

In the twentieth century, the existence of the Soviet Union and the socialist bloc led to an “extraordinary” deviation in the course of capitalism. The unrestrained aggression of the imperialist system, backed by colonial accumulation, was somewhat restrained by strong working-class governments, both in domestic social policies and in the arena of international relations, and bound by certain rules that gave it a “civilized” face.

80 years since Fulton: Churchill’s imperialist manifesto against Socialism

By Nikos Mottas

On 5 March 1946, less than a year after the defeat of Nazi Germany, Winston Churchill stood before an audience at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri, and delivered the speech that would soon be known as the “Iron Curtain” speech. 

In Western political mythology, the address is often portrayed as a prophetic warning about Soviet expansion. In reality, it was something quite different: a calculated ideological declaration of hostility toward the socialist world and one of the founding political acts of the Cold War.

World Federation of Trade Unions calls for solidarity week with Cuba

WFTU Solidarity Week with Cuba

There is no doubt that the aggressive and warmongering nature of imperialism is manifested in its most stark and most undisguised way today.

The massacre and genocide of Palestinians in Gaza by the murderous Israeli state with the open support of the US, NATO, and the EU, and their allies, the attacks against Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and the aggressive war against Iran, the invasion of Venezuela by the US army and the kidnapping of President Maduro and Cilia Flores are actions that remind us once again how ruthless imperialism can be in order to promote the economic and geostrategic interests of monopoly capital and the dominant circles of capitalism.

Every March 8^th, and through our daily struggle, one of the main lessons the first communist women gave to us on March 8^th, 1917 takes on great significance: the struggle for the rights of working-class women is inseparable from the struggle of the working class as a whole. Against exploitation, precariousness, and violence against women, class conscience and collective struggle are essential tools to advance towards the real emancipation of women.
