This statement was adapted from the World Federation of Democratic Youth’s Twitter thread, originally posted on July 12, 2021.

The World Federation of Democratic Youth reiterates its support for the Cuban Revolution, its youth and its people and we denounce the criminal blockade against Cuba and that is being used to destabilize the island. The criminal blockade of the United States against Cuba has serious repercussions against its youth and its people, has been denounced on countless occasions and only seeks to put an end to its popular sovereignty and to impose the interests of imperialism on Cuba.

Stop Anti-Communist Attacks in Germany! Solidarity with the DKP, SDAJ, and Junge Welt!

The Deutsche Kommunistische Partei (German Communist Party, DKP) announced on Thursday that they may be barred from participating in the upcoming Bundestag election in Germany, with the Federal Returning Officer citing a delay in submitting annual reports as the cause for the ban. As Germany suffers under the rise of the right and its greatest economic downturn since the establishment of the current state, this ban would prevent an essential progressive voice from fighting for peace and disarmament, increased social services and economic equality, and more rights for young workers and students in the Bundestag.
