We send greeting to all of you and share your struggle. The Iranian socialist workers support strongly
your movement and they are pleased that you have diligently resisted against the
oppression.
The Turkish workers’ class has always struggled against oppression and
exploitation, but has fought for freedom and equality.
At the same time, workers and labour organizations including young
activist are struggling for the protection of their rights as well.
The current protests are mass movements that involve different classes.
The Turkish working class reflects the majority of people demands in society
and is not only important in Turkey but also important in the Middle East
region.
Long live the working class in Turkey
Long live mass movements and young people in Turkey
Long live international workers solidarity
The Turkish government and ruling party known as Justice and
Development have implemented neo-liberalism policies successfully in recent
years. The government of Turkey was able to combine liberal policies and the
Islamic ideology of the Turkish capitalists to develop global capitalism
polices, enhance economic growth and become a reliable power in the region for
NATO.
When mass movements occurred in Arabic countries in the past few years,
the Erdogan government of Turkey led by global capitalism, through this process
of political developments with Syria, Turkey became the front of the imperial
government of America and Europe. Erdogan and the ruling party are proud of
themselves. In such circumstances the Turkish bourgeoisie to consolidate his
power in region performed some steps in solving problems. One of the problems
the Turkish government counteracted was the pressure from the PKK by releasing
Avjlan from prison. They also implemented some Islamic laws that put pressure
on women and set limits for political and labor organizations.
The Turkish bourgeois led by Erdogan and the Justice and Development
party has caused exploitation of workers and has led to investment
exploitation, privatization and accumulation of debt. This debt is being paid
by the people. The current movements, which originally involved the entire
country with its continuation, will challenge the neo-liberalist capitalist policies.
In the past two weeks it has become clear that Turkey will face more worker
strikes, protests etc, which will affect the surrounding region including Iran.
The Imperial monarchy was empowered in the region and then overthrown
by Iranian workers and toiling masses successfully in 1979. But unfortunately
this revolution was defeated by the Islamic Republic of Iran movement which was
supported by American and Europe imperialist countries. The Islamic Republic of
Iran is moved society backwards for many years by using religion and
superstition. This has resulted in a huge profit for international investors
and capitalists. The Islamic Republic of Iran has never been able to gain
credibility among the workers class and toiling masses. Whether by force,
police, army, Islamic revolutionary guards, execution, imprisonment, torture,
it cannot silence the workers and progressive organizations. Over the years
workers have been apart of strikes and protests in many different ways. Currently,
many of those workers and activist are still struggling in Iranian prisons.
Even those outside of the prisons are having a challenging time against the
Islamic regime.
Long live the working class in
Turkey
Long live mass movements and young
people in Turkey
Long live international workers solidarity
