NEW
WORKER supporters heard the views of two leading communists on the Ukrainian
crisis at a meeting in central London last week.
New Communist Party leader Andy Brooks
and Michael Chant, the general secretary of the RCPB (ML) opened the discussion
at Euston’s Cock Tavern, a regular haunt for New Worker forums over the past
few years, that was chaired by Theo Russell from the NCP London District.
Michael spoke about the right of the
peoples of Ukraine to self-determination and role of imperialism in the crisis
and Andy talked about the solid support of the communist movements in Ukraine
and Russia for the anti-fascist struggle against the imperialists and their
local puppets. And both stressed the need to step up the solidarity work in
Britain to halt the drive to another imperialist war in Europe.
This was, naturally, taken up by the
comrades in the audience during the discussion which broadened to cover the
general threat to world peace from US-led imperialism.
The meeting, organised by the NCP’s
London District, was the third of this year’s series of talks for New Worker
readers and supporters to discuss contemporary issues.
