Trump and Putin in Alaska. The noose tightens around Ukraine's neck
Italian version We will write more extensively in the coming days about developments in world relations. Not everything is already clear and definite about the outcome of the meeting between Trump and Putin in Alaska. But a first basic assessment is possible – the US-Russia summit in Anchorage has followed the script of the most classic deal between imperialist powers over the skin and rights of other countries and peoples. 'Those who are not at the table are on the menu', an old...

What is happening between US imperialism and Russian imperialism?
Trump's openness put to the test by Putin's closure. The unknown variables in global relations
Italian version Lenin frames imperialism as a dynamic phenomenon, permanently exposed by its very nature to ever-changing relations, particularly between the great powers. Today, the change of direction of the planet's main power makes Lenin's method of analysis all the more relevant. The mobility of world relations has accelerated sharply, with repeated changes of scenario and many unknown variables. Trump’s persona and his now proverbial 'unpredictability' is a secondary...

Russian imperialism and the Zionist state. Lessons from the Iranian crisis
Why did the US, Israel and Russia voted together at the UN against condemning the invasion of Ukraine? What campism doesn't want to see
Italian version The story of the war against Iran sheds light on various aspects of the global scenario, even on those that may not be immediately obvious and on those that the ideological blindness of campism refuses to see. One of these aspects is the relationship between Russian imperialism and the Zionist state. But let's take it one step at a time. The first indisputable fact that emerged was the refusal by Russia and China of any military assistance to Iran when it was under attack....

Zohran Mamdani wins NYC Democratic primary
Good news about voters, no solution for the city
Italian version On June 24, social democrat Zohran Mamdani won the Democratic Party primary election for Mayor of New York City — informally, since the primary used ranked-choice voting, and the final results wouldn’t be published until July 1. Mamdani took 43.5% of the first-choice votes; Andrew Cuomo, his establishment opponent, took 36.4%; and Brad Lander took 11.3%. Since Mamdani and Lander cross-endorsed each other, Lander’s second-choice votes would presumably go to...

US attack on Iran, a new step of imperialism going rogue
Trumpism faced with the complexity of the Middle East theatre
Italian version The US bombing on Iran is one more chapter in the history of the world's leading power going rogue. It is further proof of the umbilical cord between the Zionist state and US imperialism, whatever the political colour of the US administration and the Israeli government. Nothing the Zionist state has done and does would be possible without the long-standing fundamental support of US (and other) imperialism. This is a truth that must nevr be forgotten. The formal and public...

Millions rally against Trump
Italian version On June 14, five million people, maybe more, rallied against Donald Trump and his policies in more than 2,000 cities and towns across the US. The rallies were called by Indivisible and other organizations of the Democratic Party left. Their theme was “No Kings.” June 14 was the third set of large anti-Trump rallies in as many months. The April 5 “Hands off!” rallies drew an estimated 3.5 million people in 1,400 locations. Rallies on May Day drew an...

Iran is alone against the Zionist aggression supported by all Western imperiaslist powers
Russia and China deny any real aid to Iran
Italian version The war of the Zionist state against Iran has the direct support, and/or political endorsement, of all the old imperialist powers of America and Europe. The new imperialist powers, Russia and China, rivals of the former, won't lift a finger to defend Iran. This is a bare fact. A fact full of political significance, for anyone willing to face reality. First of all – the Zionist war has wiped out in few hours the hypocritical humanitarian masquerade of European...

We denounce the aggression of the Zionist state to Iran
Italian version The aggression of the Zionist state to Iran is part of the Netanyahu government's warmongering policy. The same colonial state that is exterminating the Palestinian people is asserting its almighty power throughout the Middle East. After occupying Gaza, colonising the West Bank, attacking Lebanon, expanding its occupation of the Syrian Golan Heights, and bombing Yemen, Israel is now once again turning its missiles and bombers against Iran. We do not recognise any right of...

The International Trotskyist Opposition joins the International Socialist League
The unity of the revolutionary marxists around the world moves forward
Italian version The congress of the International Trotskyist Opposition (ITO), held in Rimini on May 23-25, decided by a large majority to dissolve itself in order to join the International Socialist League (LIS). This is a step forward for the unity of consistent Trotskyists around the world. The decision taken by the ITO is consistent with its basic approach. The ITO was a small international organization (present in Italy, the US, Denmark, Britain, France, and Hungary) of which the PCL...

The death of a Pope
Italian version As communists, we do not join in the universal, unanimous mourning for the death of Pope Bergoglio. In particular, we disagree with the ecstatic commemoration of his figure by the so-called radical left. Of course we deeply respect religious freedom and the feelings of the personal religious faith. But not at cost of the truth. Religion – any religion – is the opium of the people, as Marx wrote. The Catholic Church is the main world-wide dispenser of this opium,...
