Resolution
of support to the struggles of the peoples of Africa and of the peoples of Guadeloupe,
Guyana and Martinique
Presented
at the International Communist Seminar, Brussels, May 2-4, 2001
After
having analyzed the international situation dominated by the capitalist globalization
and its disastrous consequences on the living conditions of the popular masses,
Noting the severe blows to the fundamental rights of the peoples of Africa, Guadeloupe,
Guyane and Martinique, the culprit of which is imperialism,
We, participants to the International Communist Seminar hold in Brussels from
May 2 to May 4, 2001,
- condemn the policies of aggression, of imperialist exploitation and of neo-colonization,
of which these peoples are victims.
- condemn the criminal social and economic policies, imposed to the popular masses
by the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF), instruments of capitalism.
- support all the struggles of national liberation and of emancipation of these
peoples.
- ask the UN to put Guadeloupe, Guyane and Marinique on the list of the countries
to decolonize.
- ask France to acknowledge the right and the will of the peoples to self-determination,
as stipulated in the UN charter.
- ask all the imperialist powers to stop their financial, political and military
support to the dictatorial regimes which plunder and murder the populations.
- support the struggle of the people of the Democratic Republic of Congo against
the imperialist aggressors and their Rwandese and Ugandese servants.
- condemn the coward murder of the president Laurent-Desire Kabila, successor
of Lumumba.
- ask UN to take firm and effective sanctions against Ruanda and Uganda for the
genocide of the Congoleses, the occupation and the plundering of the ressources
of the DR of Congo.
- demand the immediate stop of the wars initiated by the imperialists (cynically
called tribal wars) in order to further plunder the natural ressoures of the conflict
zones, rich in minerals (gold, diamond, copper, oil) and aiming at transforming
the continent in colonial counters: it is the goal of the recolonization.
- demand the closure of all the imperialist military bases in the countries of
Africa, of the Caribbean and all over the world. These bases are indeed directed
against the peoples and their nationalist leaders, who refuse exploitation and
the imperialist and capitalist domination, or against all those who lead a independent
or socialist social and economic policy in the interests of the peoples and not
of the multinationals.
