The US government, led by the far-right Donald Trump, continues to increase its warmongering and interventionist offensive in Latin America in general and against Venezuela in particular. 
On December 16, the U.S. declared a total blockade on oil tankers entering or leaving the country. This comes after issuing warnings about the dangers of flying to […]

A service as essential as travel and transit cannot be left over to profit. At the core of capitalist thinking is the commodity. Everything is reduced to the logic of being a commodity, everything is seen through the lens of profitability, to see how much money it can make the capitalist. This logic ruins transit.

AMLO and Sheinbaum's governments have only brought superficial changes to life in Mexico. As hope turns to disappointment, Mexicans face mounting pressures and repression while the big bourgeoisie plays at being the "rabid opposition"

In Portugal, the main trade union confederations, CGTP-IN and UGT, have called a general strike for December 11, 2025. This is the first joint strike by these unions since 2013, a clear sign of the degree of mobilization and dissatisfaction among workers in the face of a profound attack on their rights. The motto of […]

Today's Sino-Japanese conflict isn't the result of some irreconcilable hatred or a rehashing of historical grivances: it is a crisis of imperialism and global capitalism.

Hernández has been convicted, with evidence, of the crimes that the Trump administration has baselessly accused Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro of committing. But Hernández walked free from jail on Dec. 2, and the U.S. invasion of Venezuela seems poised to begin at any moment. This hypocrisy is obscene, but it's also a consistent pattern of the US-instigated "war on drugs"

The history of Guinea-Bissau has been marked by a tireless struggle for freedom and popular sovereignty. From the anti-colonial resistance to the democratic advances of recent decades, the Guinean people have repeatedly shown that they do not accept living under authoritarian regimes. Sissoco Embaló's self-coup is therefore part of a desperate attempt to erase the memory of that struggle and impose a political setback that will not be tolerated.

The reactionary, genocidal civil war in Sudan has already caused bloodletting surpassed only by the 2003 Darfur Genocide committed by some of the same forces. The violence and impunity, as always, are tied to the direct complicity of imperialist and regional reactionary forces financing the conflict.

Immigrants must stand in solidarity with the struggle for Indigenous liberation as we fight the legacies of imperialism and settler-colonial rule.

While less of an economic powerhouse than China or the U.S., Russia has nevertheless consolidated an imperialist economy led by its energy and war industries, which it has used to invade Georgia and Ukraine, as well as to prop up subservient regimes in Kazakhstan and Syria, at the same time as it grinds the screws of oppression and political repression inside its own borders. Russia's economy today is a case study in the principle of combined and uneven development.

While the US is still the most powerful imperialist nation, China's growth into an imperialist rival is of major global relevance. The imperialist dynamics of its economy are critical to understanding the international geopolitical balance of power, but even beyond that represent a faction of the capitalist class that exploits workers where it has influence and which must be organized against.

The latest amendments to the Constitution of Pakistan were not passed through public consent or democratic consensus. They were crafted from above by a civil-military bloc that has dominated Pakistan's political order for most of its history

Even as we celebrate the release of Egyptian activist Alaa Abdel Fattah in late September, it is also our duty as revolutionary socialists to keep exposing the horrors of the Egyptian carceral state and to solidarize with the thousands of other political prisoners who continue to languish in its dungeons.

Winning against ICE is going to take more than what NGOs have to offer. We need a democratic mass movement that can go beyond the Democratic Party formula

The Trump administration has decided that the limited humanitarian protections offered by Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for millions of refugees is “contrary to the national interest.” This includes the protections previously offered to refugees from a list of countries victimized by U.S. imperialism, including Haiti, Honduras, and Afghanistan—along with the latest country in the sights of the imperialist war machine, Venezuela.

Popular protests in Pakistan-administered Jammu and Kashmir have won promises of significant reforms from the federal government. Securing the implementation of these reforms will required continued mobilization, but the path to true democracy, socialism and freedom in Kashmir requires the organization of a Constituent Assembly that can challenge the legitimacy of the state and surpass its constitutional crisis.
