MLKP: Fight For A Free Kurdistan And Democratic Syria
From MLKP International Bulletin #256
December, 2024
Our party views the Middle East question as one of democratization and the struggle for political freedom. National differences, sectarian divisions, and political Islam-based agendas have historically produced not solutions, but deadlock, hostility, and mutual enmity.
After the First Imperialist Partition War, the Syrian state was established on a foundation of cooperation with the British and was later placed under French mandate. As a nation-state, it was constructed on the principles of a single nation, single language, and single flag, a model preserved by the Ba‘ath regime after it came to power in 1963. Colonial domination was never lifted from the Kurdish region of Rojava, which remained under the control of the Ba‘ath regime. The regime‘s policies of forced demographic change, massacres, and denial continued in areas where Kurds lived.
In 2011, under the conditions of popular uprisings across the Middle East, the people of Rojava established their self-administration based on a revolutionary-democratic people’s governance. A woman-liberating system based on the equality and freedom of all peoples has withstood all attacks for 14 years. Over time, the Democratic Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria was established, based on an alliance between Kurdish, Arab, Assyrian, Yazidi, Turkmen, and Armenian peoples. The Rojava-North Syria revolution represents a solution to the Middle East issue on the basis of this understanding and program.
MLKP/Kurdistan is committed to defending the achievements of the Rojava-North Syria revolution. We consider it our duty to struggle for the establishment of a revolutionary-democratic and woman-liberating system in Syria. We call upon the workers, women, youth, and all our peoples from all faiths to elevate the revolutionary and democratic struggle.
We will continue to stand in defense of Rojava and the Autonomous-Democratic Syria against all attacks, particularly the colonial occupation of the Turkish state. Our people must strengthen their organization and self-defense everywhere.
We salute the honorable resistance put forth by the Autonomous Administration and the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). We have full confidence in the fighters resisting in every position, in every city. The Assad regime has collapsed. However, the danger is still great. A jihadist takeover is on the agenda. The barbaric Taliban-led Afghan regime should never be forgotten. The fact that the US, UK, Israel, and the Turkish state are trying to legitimize HTS does not change the reality of HTS.
We call upon our people in Bakur, Başur, Rojhilat, and the diaspora to fight against colonialism and political Islamist fascism.
We call upon all the socialist, progressive, revolutionary, democratic, feminist, and ecological movements of the world to rally around the Rojava revolution and to elevate the struggle for the recognition of Rojava’s status in every area they are active.
As MLKP/Kurdistan, we will continue to fight with our blood and lives. Our revolution in Rojava, for which thousands of martyrs and veterans have sacrificed, will live on! We give our word to the people of Afrin, who have suffered great massacres, that our lands under occupation will be liberated.
Long live Free Kurdistan!
