The political crisis in the Ukraine has passed through the stage of the direct violent confrontation. Meanwhile there has been implemented the variant of the crises solution that is in favour of the most reactionary, bourgeois-nationalistic, openly pro-fascist forces.

The current crisis in the Ukraine is a manifestation of the most embittered internecine struggle within the ruling class of bourgeoisie, an attack of the part of the big Ukrainian financial-industrial Capital that has been climbing to power and striving the redistribution of property, against the established circle of capitalists close to the government. Both interests of western as well as of the Russian Capital are present in this struggle in a varying degree. It’s obvious that the leaders of the World Imperialism, first of all the USA and EC (within EC this is Germany) as well as Russia have been trying to change the situation in the Ukraine to serve their own interests. A direct and unprecedented intervention of the ruling circles of the USA and EC has been taking place. This intervention in the internal affairs of the Ukraine is carried out by various means: by financing the so-called oppositionists, by provoking coups d’etat and rendering the assistance in the organization of such coups, by applying political and economic pressure up to the point when they issue direct orders who personally should be included in the Ukrainian government and who should be nominated candidate for Presidency.

These politics of the leading Imperialist states represent clear continuation of the unpunished imperialistic aggressions and provocations carried out in the past against Yugoslavia, Iraq and Libya, currently – against Syria, and against other Arab and African countries, the politics of blockade and threats applied against Cuba, Venezuela, Korean People Democratic Republic and Iran as well as with the use of the politics of the “soft” coup that was already used in a number of Latin American countries. These politics are the manifestations of one the most basic economic principles of Imperialism, i.e. the struggle for the redivision of the World between Imperialistic powers that is characteristic for all phases of the monopolistic stage of Capitalism. Under the modern conditions these politics have been more and more taking the shape typical for Fascism, i.e. of a direct terroristic dictatorship by the most reactionary, most chauvinistic elements of the financial Capital as exactly described in the definition of Comintern.

We should also clearly understand that apart from the external intervention, these have been exactly the politics of the big bourgeoisie’s clan hitherto in power as represented by the Party of Regions, that carried on and intensified the predatory politics of their predecessors (by former Ukrainian presidents Kravchuk, Kuchma and Yushchenko). Those politics have led to the deterioration of the working class’ and all the people’s position and to the hideous increase of corruption that allowed the “oppositionists” to revive and use in their struggle for power the public moods of a considerable parts of the population that have the darkest, the most reactionary nature, the moods that are next to openly Nazi.

The struggle of capitalists for power objectively tends to weakens the ruling class and to create the preconditions for strengthening the workers’ politics as any crisis should do. Nevertheless it hasn’t been the case in the Ukraine. The Ukrainian working class has encountered the crisis while being disoriented, ideologically disarmed and disorganized; the workers have found themselves to be hostages of their exploiters’ politics.

We find it to be our duty to take part of the responsibility for the weakness of the communist and workers movement in the Ukraine. We should tell openly that we firmly believe that one of the main reasons for such state of the workers’ movement both in the Ukraine and in Russia as well as in the majority of the western countries is a strong right opportunistic bias in the communist movement, the politics of actual co-operation with the ruling bourgeois class that have been pursued over decades by many big Euroleft parties as well as by some others that use similar strategies and tactics.

In exactly the same way as Opportunism betrayed Socialism to Capitalism at the times of Gorbachev, the successors of his cause have been retreating nowadays before the advancing Fascism. Working people are being disorganized by opportunists, they are being held captives to such parliamentary illusions as hopes for honest elections, as creating different variants of left to center governments and as alleged possibility of creating progressive unions of capitalist states.

Such illusions and the deceptions of working people must be resolutely disposed of.

Working class, all working people should have their own class politics to fight Capitalism of all sorts and by all clans for their own power – the power of working people. Workers’ class fronts and proletarian detachments can and should turn into centers of antifascist struggle of all honest people and progressive forces all over the World, as the struggle against Fascism that is not accompanied by the struggle against Imperialism and against its base in the workers’ movement – i.e. against Opportunism, would mean an empty and deceitful phrase only.

Communists and working people of all countries should be the first to enter the ranks of the forces of resistance to the advancing Fascism in the Ukraine in Syria, in EC countries, in the USA as well as all over the World.
