The Maoist Parties and Organizations, which sign this declaration for
the XXXV Anniversary of the Day of Heroism, established as the International
Day of Revolutionary Political and War Prisoners, salute the undefeated
ideology of the international proletariat, Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, mainly
Maoism; under whose undefeated banners we are advancing in the realization
of the reunification of the International Communist Movement, in hard and
prolonged struggle, concretizing the reconstitution of the communist parties to
initiate and develop the people's war in the different countries, marching
towards the International Unified Maoist Conference already the New
International Organization of the Proletariat.
On June 19, communists and revolutionaries around the world celebrate
this date, commemorating the rebellion 35 years ago by the prisoners of war of
the Communist Party of Peru. Those who rebelled in defense of the
revolution and their lives against the plans of the reaction to annihilate them
and deliver an accurate blow to the people's war. The monstrous and
infamous genocide by government mandate of the fascist García Pérez crashed
against the unbending, fierce resistance of the comrades, combatants and
children of the masses who wielded ideology, courage and heroism boldly
displayed in fiery war defiance shape the monumental trilogy of the luminous
battle trenches of the Frontón, Lurigancho and Callao, a historical landmark
that will proclaim more and more the greatness of the Day of Heroicity. Conquering
a great victory, political, military and moral for the Communist Party of
Peru, for the class, for the Peruvian people and the peoples of the world. Historical
milestone that we celebrate around the world. Thus the heroes continue to
win battles and serve the revolution. The proletariat and the peoples of
the world always keep them deserved great respect and obligation: to continue
the task in which they were engaged.
On this solemn occasion, we salute the current people's wars, which
continue their invincible march through thick and thin, like the people's wars
in Peru, India, Turkey and the Philippines. People's wars that show the
way to follow those to be born, serving the world revolution and persisting in
raising, defending and applying Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, mainly Maoism; People's
wars, which are the shining beacon for the current armed liberation struggles
and others waged by the international proletariat and the peoples of the world
to wipe imperialism and reaction from the face of the Earth.
This occasion is propitious to denounce that, in the face of the
unyielding, fierce resistance of Chairman Gonzalo, in defense of the
Headquarters of the Party and the revolution, the current fascist, genocidal
and country-selling government of the old Peruvian State, headed by Sagasti,
like his predecessors - counting on the service of the rats of the opportunist
line of revisionist and capitulationist right (LOD), under the leadership of
the Yankee CIA -, continues to apply the plan to annihilate Chairman Gonzalo,
maintaining its absolute and perpetual isolation for now close to 29 years. The
authorities of the old State, from the Executive to its judicial and prison
system act with blind hatred and perverse homicidal fury against the most
important revolutionary political prisoner in the world, keeping him in
isolation, with contact only with their jailers at various levels and
information from the outside world previously distorted and manipulated by the
Yankee CIA, Peruvian reaction and ROL rats. Defend Chairman Gonzalo and
Gonzalo Thought, Head of the Communist Party of Peru and the Peruvian
Revolution!
In Turkey, prisons are the place where the ruling classes show their
true face. Prisons in Turkey are run by the ruling classes within the
framework of that logic and the practices are directly proportional to the very
nature of the regime. The history of Turkish prisons is full of massacres
of fascism against communists and revolutionaries and in front of them is
indelibly written the unshakeable will of resistance and anti-capitation of
communists and revolutionaries. As a consequence of the attack by the
State, hundreds of revolutionary prisoners have been killed by torture or
executions. Above all during the time of the Military Junta, when the prisons
became torture centers and, that situation, it has not really changed in
the times of fascism with a parliamentary mask. Hundreds of imprisoned
communists and revolutionaries currently live for years in conditions of
cellular isolation and acute isolation and their fundamental rights are
permanently under attack. If someone were to look only at the prisons of
Turkey, they would see the true nature of the ruling regime reflected in all
its nakedness. At the same time, the behavior and the joint hostility of
the bourgeoisie of the whole world is concretized there. The attack on
December 19, 2000, the most recent massacre in Turkish prisons, is a concrete
example of this. This massacre was planned as a joint NATO operation and
the preparation of the operation was conducted with the contributions of a
Spanish general. The main basis for this joint operation can be seen in
the public statement of the Turkish Prime Minister, who pointed out that
communists and revolutionaries could be held in prison, based on their public
ties and their direct contribution to the class struggle, such as the direct
obstacle to the policy followed by the IMF. The joint operation of the
German state in cooperation with Greece, France and Switzerland against the TKP
/ ML, in 2015, was also in the concept of the common hostility of the
bourgeoisie against communists and revolutionaries. While the arrests and
imprisonments are a quest by the ruling classes to conjure the vanguard of the
class struggle, they also serve as a threat to the masses. who pointed out

In India, more
than 10,000 suspected Maoists
are in prison,[1] to
them we must add many thousands of prisoners of national liberation movements (Kaschmir,
Manipur, etc.) and other democratic movements , including
personalities recognized like Varavara Rao, GN
Saibaba, also who has meanwhile been released, Ajith and Hany
Babu Musaliyarveettil Tharayil. With 70%
of prisoners without conviction, India
has the highest quota in the world in terms of prisoners without conviction. Prisoners
remain behind bars for long years and even dozens of years, without
the old state of India pronouncing a firm condemnation against them . "Operation
Green Hunt" ("Operation Green Hunt" ), war
against the people, is not only a campaign of annihilation , with
"fake encounters" ( "Fake Encounter" )
but they especially terrorize the peasant’s poor, but it also crowds the
prisons. Against this there are great international movements
that have also forced the Amnesty
International move. But the political prisoners
who, based on great solidarity, are released on bail after some time , shortly
after are taken prisoner again. For this it makes use of the old State of
the “Law of Prevention of Illegal Activities” (“Unlawful Activities Preventions
Act“ - UAPA ) .
According to information from
the Communist Party of the Philippines (PCF) until the end of 2020, there are
more than 650 political prisoners incarcerated in the Philippines. The
majority of political detainees during the Duterte regime, that is, more than
200 prisoners, are peasants who have been accused of being members of the New
People's Army. These peasants include Amanda Echanis, who was arrested
with her month-old son Randall Emmanuel. Furthermore, the Duterte regime is
famous for its extrajudicial executions, claiming to be “drug traffickers”. Its
"war on drugs" is well known and is always directed against the broad
and deep masses.
The people of Palestine for more than 70 years have been giving hard and
heroic resistance with great sacrifice against the Zionist policy of genocide. The
Total Number of Palestinian Political Prisoners detained by Israel is around
4,400. Among them 430 administrative detainees, men and women without charge or
evidence. There are 160 Children imprisoned by the Zionist State of
Israel. And more than 30 prisoners are incarcerated for more than 25
years. In the course of the recent attacks by the Zionist armed forces
against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, some 1,400 Palestinians were
arrested and put up tireless resistance.
But it is not only
the Zionist state who reprim and blood and fire the just
struggle of the Palestinian people, but also the imperialist states like France that
holds prisoner G and orges
Ibrahim Abdallah for more than 36 years, and denied
the rights most basic recognized even by the laws of the French
State and international treaties on the treatment of prisoners, etc. But,
it is also necessary to say clearly, that the repression against the
revolutionary prisoners in the European countries is not very different from
that of the countries mentioned. Well-known case is the repression of
English imperialism against Irish republican prisoners, cases paradigmatics
are Bobby Sands, Patsy O'Hara and Francis Hughes.
The struggles of the peasantry for land in Brazil are repressed with all
violence by the landlord-bureaucratic state, as a consequence of the repression
of the military government actually headed by the fascist Bolsonaro, many
peasant leaders and activists of the League of Poor Peasants (LCP), of which comrades
Ezequiel, Luis Carlos, Estefane and Ricardo remain in prison.
In Colombia as a result of the fierce repression of the popular uprising
by the government of Iván Duque, which has the backing of the Yankee
imperialist government of Biden,[2]
in addition to having perpetrated atrocious massacres against the population
with dozens of deaths and hundreds of wounded, many of them who have lost one
of their eyes due to the violence of the police, military and armed civilian
repression (auxiliary forces), have arrested and imprisoned thousands of
participants in the demonstrations. At least 70 children of the Colombian
people have been killed by the police or by armed civilians, around 800
injured, eye injuries, 21 registered cases of sexual violence against women of
the people and the militarization of some cities in the country.
The aforementioned cases are only a sample of the need to fight for the
defense of social, political and war prisoners. The fight for freedom,
health, life and rights of revolutionary prisoners throughout the world is a
task that falls to us to develop as part of the struggle for demands together
with the struggle for Power, the struggle for that is of utmost importance.
their status as political prisoners and prisoners of war be recognized. Because
our imprisoned comrades transform the filthy dungeons of reaction into luminous
combat trenches of the people's war.
The People's War shows the proletariat and the peoples of the world the
only true revolutionary solution to the current world crisis, to the broad and
deep mass that are mobilizing, displaying great activity and an explosiveness
accumulated by decades of increased exploitation of the world by the
imperialism and its genocide from the pandemic; It is already exploding
and they will become bigger and more powerful, as the reactionary genocidal
president of Colombia, Iván Duque, has said: “The post-pandemic outbreak is
going to reach the whole world. Today it was our turn, but we are going to
see it in other places in the coming years ”. The words of the reaction
are acknowledgment of the part that does not need proof of their fears, their
worries, the dark perspective they envision,
The explosions of the masses are like the heralds of the new era of
revolutions that has opened. Because it is the masses that have made, are
doing and will make the great transformations, they are from those glorious
hands that the new will always come out to guide humanity. Because with
their armed hands they conquer and defend the new Power, Power, the central
task of the revolution. The masses cry out, they demand of us communists
that we lead them along the path of the people's war to carry out the
democratic revolution, the socialist revolution and in the future cultural
revolutions, to confront the imperialist wars of aggression, to confront the
imperialist war, to confront the imperialist world war, if it were to occur,
confronting and crushing revisionism as the main danger.
The world reaction is aware of the danger that threatens it, sees how
grave it implies for them that the masses have set in motion with such
explosiveness and that it is the glorious proletariat led by its Communist
Party that is marching to meet this spontaneous movement. of the masses to lead
them by their only great demand for Power and it is doing so by uprooting
opportunism, making revisionism shatter.
Imperialism and world reaction sink amid greater collusion and struggle,
and in the midst of their agony they give bloody slaps and with the help of
revisionists and opportunists of all colors they seek to conjure up the
revolution through their reactionary exit, sowing electoral and constitutional
illusions. as in Peru where they participate in the reactionary elections at
the tail of the bureaucratic faction of the big bourgeoisie, as in other places
to go on to repress the revolution, practicing the trilogy of capitulation:
capitulation, amnesty and enlistment.
The elections are a means of
domination of the bourgeoisie in the imperialist countries and, in the
oppressed nations, they are a means of domination of the landlords
and big bourgeoisie; are not for the instrument
transform people and means to overthrow the power of l a s classes dominant,
hence the correct orientation of s use or the
purposes of agitation and propaganda. Faced with the crisis and the
development of the objective and subjective conditions for the revolution,
depending on the concrete situation, the
reaction resorts to the so-called "social aid packages" to try to
lull the masses to sleep, to apply their anti-crisis packages with anesthesia; in
other casess , to divert them from the
revolutionary path draws boost reactionary governments led by opportunism and
the use of the reaccionari horror or or
other uses fascism. All this the reaction applies in the midst of acute
reactionary struggles, because the crisis and the revolution also spur their
struggles.
The fact that the reaction uses opportunism and revisionism in its
desperate reactionary way out of the crisis and to postpone the revolution, is
one more political proof of the maturity of the objective and subjective
conditions for the revolution throughout the world. This proves that the
revolution is the main historical and political trend in the world today, that
it is expressed mainly in the oppressed nations, where the main contradiction
of the oppressed nations-imperialism develops; the oppressed nations that
are the basis of the world revolution, the majority of the world population
lives there, of which the vast majority is made up of the peasantry fighting
for land, the main force of the democratic revolution led by the proletariat to
through his party, which carries it forward through the people's war.
Also expressly in the case of Peru, where the reaction has re-established
the old Power, has reestablished the old relations of production, that is,
semi-feudality and in the countries where it acts with the development of
bureaucratic capitalism, the semi-feudal base evolves, it does not destroy it.
. The new revisionism denies the developing revolutionary situation at the
international level. In other words, it denies the revolution as the main
trend, it denies the new great wave of the world revolution, it denies the
strategic offensive of the world revolution, it denies the main contradiction,
it denies the democratic revolution, it denies the problem of land in the
oppressed countries and for so much denies the world proletarian revolution. They
are counterrevolutionary renegades. It has reestablished the old relations
of production, that is, semi-feudality, and in the countries where it operates
with the development of bureaucratic capitalism, the semi-feudal base evolves,
it does not destroy it. The new revisionism denies the developing
revolutionary situation at the international level. In other words, it

the problem of land in the oppressed countries and for so much denies the world
proletarian revolution. They are counterrevolutionary renegades. It

oppressed countries and therefore denies the world proletarian revolution. They

We reaffirm l or established
in our joint statement by the First of May
2021: The prevailing social order, the imperialist world
system, the, Yankee imperialism, the common
enemy of the peoples around the world, is outdated and it is rotten to the
marrow, it is supported by the bloody bayonets of mercenary armies that will be
powerless before us. Anyone who takes a look at the world today will see
that we are facing a situation where the world proletarian revolution is the
only way out, the only way for humanity and that the development of objective
and subjective conditions in the world are favorable for revolution.
The world is in chaos. Imperialism is a dying
system. The peoples of the world rebel against the death and misery caused
by imperialism. All over the world especially
in Latin America (currently the weakest link in the imperialist chain), Africa
and Asia - the people are massacred, tortured, disappeared and imprisoned
because they have chosen to fight.
Finally, it is up to us to raise the commitment, we
collect those lives, that example, that blood of
our heroes of the Shining Combat Trenches who on June 19, 1986 offered their
lives in defense of the revolution and their lives and
we enter them into our Our own flesh, that ignites our own mind and tenses our
will more and more, so that that path opened with immense
sacrifice that will be the amazement of the centuries, be
the path that we continue until we fulfill that task in which they insisted. The
best tribute that we can pay them and we are giving up today is to
persist on that path, on that course and we will not stop, as Communist
Parties, as a class and as immense masses of the people of the world, and we
will not stop until communism. May this be the serious commitment that we
assume today, once again, in homage to the heroes of the people.
Long live the XXXV Anniversary of the Day of Heroicity!
Honor and eternal glory to the fallen heroes!
Long live the revolution!
Unite under Maoism! Down with revisionism!
