Iran ceasefire: Trump’s humiliating climbdown
“Total and complete victory. 100 percent. No question about it.” With these words, Donald Trump described the two-week ceasefire with Iran announced last night. Just hours prior, Trump had threatened that “an entire civilization will die” – which elicited not a word of criticism from America’s allies. But shortly before his own deadline expired, Trump…

Trump faces impossible dilemma as Iran gets the upper hand
Four weeks into the US-Israel war of aggression against Iran, the war aims of US imperialism have not only not been achieved, but they look further away than before.

The Cuban Revolution is facing its most dangerous period ever
The oil blockade decreed by Trump on 29 January is slowly but surely asphyxiating Cuba, which relies on oil imports for 60 percent of its energy production.

The war on Iran: where do communists stand?
In the morning of Saturday 28 February, Tehran was shaken by a series of loud explosions as US and Israeli missiles struck the capital of Iran. Clouds of smoke were also seen rising from Tehran, Qom and other Iranian cities, announcing the commencement of war. At a stroke, the endless parody of meaningless negotiations was…

Trump prepares for war with Iran – down with imperialist aggression!
Once again, the eyes of the world are fixed on every word and gesture of the man in the White House, Donald J. Trump. With one third of the entire American Navy assembled in the region, and with Trump oscillating between threats and calls for negotiations, the question on the lips of millions is: will…

Workers of the world, rise up to defend Cuba!
Cuba is now facing an almost complete blackout after Trump imposed an oil blockade on the island. The aim is clear. US imperialism sees an opportunity to finally crush the Cuban Revolution after 67 years of relentless assault. It is the duty of the world’s working-class movement to rally to the defence of the Cuban…
