Peru's indigenous Aymara region will not recognise the elections if Fujimori wins, because she has already lost the popular vote within the country. If she wins it'll be due to those from abroad, not in Peru.

Protests & strikes are coming to defend the country's majority.

La pretendida acusación contra el General de Ejército Raúl Castro Ruz, que acaba de comunicar el Gobierno estadounidense, solo evidencia la soberbia y la frustración que le provoca a los representantes del imperio, la inquebrantable firmeza de la Revolución Cubana y la unidad y fortaleza moral de su liderazgo.

Se trata de una acción política, sin ningún basamento jurídico, que solo busca engrosar el expediente que fabrican para justificar el desatino de una agresión militar a #Cuba.

EE.UU miente y manipula los sucesos alrededor del derribo de las avionetas de la organización narco-terrorista Hermanos al Rescate, en 1996.

Sabe bien, porque sobran evidencias documentales, que no se actuó de manera imprudente ni se violó el derecho internacional, como sí vienen haciendo fuerzas militares estadounidenses, con sus fríamente calculadas y abiertamente publicitadas ejecuciones extrajudiciales sobre embarcaciones civiles en el Caribe y el Pacífico.

El 24 de febrero de 1996, Cuba actuó en legítima defensa, dentro de sus aguas jurisdiccionales, tras sucesivas y peligrosas violaciones de nuestro espacio aéreo por connotados terroristas, de lo cual la administración estadounidense de turno fue alertada en más de una decena de ocasiones, pero hizo caso omiso de las advertencias y permitió las violaciones.

La altura ética y el sentido humanista de su obra, derriban cualquier infamia que se pretenda levantar contra el General de Ejército Raúl Castro. Como jefe guerrillero y como estadista, ganó el amor de su pueblo, a lo que se suma el respeto y la admiración de otros líderes de la región y del mundo. Esos valores son su mejor defensa y un escudo moral, frente al ridículo intento de menoscabar su talla de héroe.

12 million people are estimated to have been killed by economic 'shock therapy' in Russia alone.

Russia suffered the worst peacetime economic collapse of a major industrialised nation in history.

The Russian economy nearly halved.

The fall in Russian output was much worse than that caused by the Nazi invasion in the 1940s.

Russian male life expectancy fell by 6.5 years, to 57.6 - back to its mid-1950s level.

The overall fall in life expectancy was on the scale of Vietnam during all-out war in the 1960s.

The suicide and homicide rates doubled.

Real incomes collapsed by 40%.

At the time of the Soviet collapse, one in fifty Russians lived in poverty. By the end of 1998, that surged to nearly one in every five.

Full employment gave way to mass unemployment.

As healthcare funding collapsed by a third and poverty surged, disease such as diphtheria, tuberculosis and syphilis rampaged.

Russia was taken over by oligarchs, gangsters implicated in serious crimes who stole the country's resources.

Murderous conflicts in the former Soviet territory included Chechnya, where potentially hundreds of thousands were killed.

Yeltsin's contempt for democracy was underlined by his bombing of the Russian legislature - and the undemocratic farce of the 1996 election.

Putin came to power after the Russian secret services almost certainly staged apartment bombings which killed hundreds.

The invasion of Ukraine has killed hundreds of thousands of people.

Need I go on? Yes, the collapse of the Soviet Union was one of the great catastrophes of our age.

An alternative would have kept the USSR together (Baltic states aside) on a democratic basis, without ruinous shock therapy.

Notably, a Soviet-wide referendum in March 1991 overwhelmingly voted to keep the Union together (although it was boycotted by six of the fifteen republics - in the Baltic and three small republics).

@YerRamautarsing @EddieBaseball @marclamonthill Capitalist have claimed the right to your labour under capitalism. America has the biggest prison population in the world, who are forced to do labour for the capitalist class. More broadly, America and Western nations built up mass wealth through the slave trade.

[noname @krlstra]

@YerRamautarsing @EddieBaseball @marclamonthill capitalism undermines true individual rights, you may have the 'legal' right to things like healthcare, changing career paths, or education, you don't have the material right to them if you can't afford them.

Over 250 Palestinians are currently studying in Cuba on full scholarship even as Cuba endures a decades long siege. That is internationalist solidarity, of which the Cuban people have a long history of, from Angola to Gaza and beyond. Viva Cuba.

[James🔻 @GoodVibePolitik]

Every Cuban I’ve met has been gracious in immediately clarifying that any of their critiques of the U.S. government do not extend to its people and I can’t help but think of how these people who have been starved—left without food, medicine, and water—still think kindly of us.

You can be as critical of the USSR and the Socialist Bloc as you want, but its collapse has only brought genocide, the destruction of capitalism's concessions to the working class in the West and uncontested imperialist interventions worldwide. That's quite literally a fact.
