International-Meeting-of-Communist-and-Workers'-Parties-Pellizza-da-Volpedo,-Il-Quarto-StatoGiven that the escalation of the political conflict in Ukraine is the result of the struggle of oligarchic groups for the post of President of Ukraine, which is for the general world and Ukrainian public is given for “the desire of Ukrainians to European values”. 

Paying attention to the facts brazen interference of foreign countries, especially the EU and U.S. in the internal affairs of an independent and sovereign Ukraine, which were, in fact, instigators in the escalation of social conflict, the clearest example of the realization of which is the realization of technology policy “color revolutions”, the implementation of which we are seeing in recent years in Yugoslavia , Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, countries in the Arab world – to achieve their geopolitical goals, but certainly not to protect the interests of the absolute majority of the peoples of these countries.

Stressing that the citizens of Ukraine are on different sides of the conflict are not able today to fully observe and evaluate their class interests in opposition, and, in fact, protect the squares and “maidans” the interests of big capital.

Expressing grave concern that under the conditions of severe political and economic crisis in Ukraine, clearly raises his head fascism, which is a direct descendant of bourgeois Ukrainian integral nationalism, xenophobia, Russo phobia national intolerance that have a direct result of government pandering to these phenomena and contradictions.

Today in Kiev, a despicable act of vandalism was carried out by fascists and the ultra-nationalists. According to reports the headquarters of the Communist Party of Ukraine was burnt downed and totally destroyed in an act of vandalism.
We hold the European Union (EU), US and the fascists elements responsible for this despicable act of anti-communism and downright lumpiness.
