We continue on the road of Red October - We strengthen our struggle for Socialism

We, 36 Communist Youth Organisations from every corner of the Earth, on the occasion of our participation in the 19th World Festival of Youth and Students, we held in Russia on the 18/10/2017, a common activity dedicated to the 100 years of the October Revolution and we declare the following:

We collectively honour the 100 years from the Great October Socialist Revolution! We honour the outstanding world-historical event of the 20th century that proved that capitalism is not perpetual and invincible, proved that the peoples with their struggle can overthrow capitalism and construct a superior society, socialism.

We honour the event that proved that all the great problems that the young people are facing in the capitalist world, such as imperialist wars, occupation, refugee waves and forced immigration, capitalist crisis, exploitation, unemployment, shattered rights in work, discrimination against women, education, in culture and sports, can be resolved with the seizure of power by the working class, with the revolutionary overthrow of capitalism. In the countries where socialism was built, the youth had important achievements that even today they seem a distant dream for the youth of our countries such as the access to all levels of education, granted and stable work, sports and culture.

The Great Red October Revolution found a poor country and changed it into a global power at the side of all the peoples that challenged the imperialism and defeated the nazi – fascism. It was an inspiration for peoples of all around the world to fight for their emancipation.

The overthrow of socialism, the dissolution of the USSR and the restoration of capitalism in Russia and other socialist countries do not scare us. We decisively declare that the 21st century will be the century of new socialist revolutions.

The ice has been broken and the road has opened, exactly 100 years ago! Now this road is ahead of us! Let us take it until the great, final victory of socialism-communism.

We continue on the way of Red October. We strengthen our common struggle.

Proletarians of all lands, unite!
