The silence of both French and Indian governments, and regulatory agencies, on the three-part series by French investigative portal, Mediapart, is telling indeed.
With the Brazilian Supreme Court annulling all charges against Lula, will the world’s sixth most populous country move away from fascism and towards a social democracy putting economic justice and anti-imperialism first once more?
A discussion with Joao Pedro Stedile, one of the leaders of the Landless Movement of Brazil, on the current situation in his country, which is submerged in a very grave health crisis as well as another crisis resulting from the disaster produced by the appalling government of Jair Bolsonaro.
Today, surprising everyone, an authentically popular left has finally arisen in Peru, after Pedro Castillo won the first round in the recent Presidential elections. The rural teacher and farmer from Cajamarca now faces off against the ultra-right-wing Keiko Fujimori in the second round in June.
The majority of the population faces a long and protracted conflict with the Tatmadaw. The coup and its subsequent repression have created a new sense of solidarity among the minorities, and is also uniting them with the working classes in the cities. Either they together build a new Myanmar; or the alternative is barbarism.
Israelis think that their continued assaults on the Palestinians—uprooting their orchards, razing their villages, imprisoning and killing them—will make the Palestinians simply throw up their hands and go away. But that will never happen. The Palestinians will win by their simple resolve to stay where they are.

The U.S. is in competition with–in fact is in conflict with–China in Africa. The approach of both is starkly different. One is marked by violence and racism and the other by a solidarity with roots in the Third World movement.
America’s domestic violence (shootings, massacres, world’s highest prison population, etc.) cannot be distinguished from the wars and blockades waged by the USA and its arms sales and 800 military bases around the world, that are involved in almost continual bombings and drone killings.

For more than seventy years now, week after week, it has continued to analyse the changes taking place in the country and the world from a socialist standpoint, and thus promote the spread of socialist ideology in the country.
