Solidarity with the workers’ movement in Panama

Dear comrades,
on behalf of Serve the People – Communist League of Norway we express our solidarity with the workers’ movement in Panama and wish success with the struggle against the Law 30 (Ley 30).

In the time of crisis in capitalism, the bourgeoisie always tries to throw the cost for it at the working class. The reduction of workers’ rights and the assaults on the working class which already have taken place in Panama is a part of this international strategy of the monopoly capitalism to let the workers’ and other exploited groups pay for the crisis – a crisis created by the same bourgeoisie and monopoly capitalism.

Although there are great differences in the history and economical development of Norway and Panama, a thing we have common is the importance for US imperialism. Panama is of great importance for the USA and because of the Panama Canal and because of the Air Force Bases which are used in their struggle against anti-imperialist forces in Latin-America, Norway is important because of our oil reserves and strategic placing at the Northern wing of Europe. The value of international solidarity cannot be underestimated. There are similarities in our struggle, as there is in communist work all over the world.

Communist thoughts are gaining new supporters and communist organising is experiencing an offensive in the time of crisis – a crisis created by capitalism itself. More and more people are seeing that capitalism means solely new crises and wars.

The working class is on the offensive in many countries, and communist ideology is spreading among more and more people as a consequence of this.

The crisis will make more people be aware of the problems linked with the capitalist system. It is our responsibility to spread our propaganda and to make our politics and our alternative – a communist society – known to as many people as possible.

A correct party line and hard-working, dedicated cadres are decisive for the success of a communist party. We have great tasks in front of us, but through hard work, studies and a good fighting spirit victory can be won for the proletariat and their allies.

NO to LAW 30! The fight continues!
NO a la LEY 30! La lucha continúa!

Long live the PC (ml) P!
Long live international solidarity!
