TPR’s statement to CRFIs’ European Conference
DIP and CRFI must fight for overthrow
Erdogan
An “open conference” can’t resolve the CRFIs’ political crisis
The CRFI is mainly composed by the Argentine
PO, the Greek EEK, the Italian PCL, the Finnish MTL, the Venezuelan OO, the
Uruguayan PT and the Turkish DIP. On its strategy what had always been central
was to oppose to all organizations which said that after URSS dissolution and
Berlin Wallfall, the struggle for power wasn’t any moreposed. The CRFI was the
only one which defended the validity of proletarian dictatorship. It wasn’t a
religious, ultra-leftist or dogmatic approach but the only revolutionary one
because CRFI’s method was based on the real class struggle development and its
revolutionary perspectives. It slogan is: “Capitalist must pay the crisis.
Workers must take the government”. That means that capitalist bankruptcy
objectively poses the task of destroy capitalist state throw the proletarian
dictatorship. That’s the key issue for a Marxist tendency. The bankruptcy was only predicted by CRFI. Itwas
not casual but the verification of the present historical period was the same
that the October revolution opened in 1917. In fact, the CRFI was founded in
Buenos Aires in 2004. That means that the CRFI is the Argentinazo living
conclusion.
However its successful forecast, in this
decisive moment, the CRFI is paralyzed. This can be seen on multiple facts. The
easiest example is that the International Worker, the CRFI’s newspaper, wasn’t
printed for half a decade (2007-2013). The reason of this organizational crisis
is, as always, mainly political. That’s the reason why PO called tovote for
Syriza meanwhile EEK voted Antarsya in the elections of 2012 in Greece. That’s
the reason why CRFI hasn’t said any word about the foundation of the Workers
Party in Bolivia (a labour party based on trade-unions against Evo Morales’
government) meanwhile PO opposed to join the Workers Party and tried an unprincipledalliance
with Peter Taeffe’s CWI against the TPR and AMR-Revolutionary Marxist Group (the
CRFI’s sympathizerBolivian section). Finally, the Arab Spring has arrived to
Turkey - another symptom of the world extension of Argentinazo. But the DiP is
still saying “this is a revolt, not a revolution”. That means that revolution
is knocking the door but the revolutionary vanguard is not recognizing it. The
masses are fighting for “Down with Erdogan” and the DIP is trying to use a “most
accurate tactic” because “the workers are not ready to take the power yet”.
That’s not CRFI’s fundational method and program. Without any doubt, DiP and
CRFI must fight for overthrow Erdogan!
On this European Conference, which is supposed
to be openly, they denied our entry on behalf of the “Organizer Commission”.Also,
the CRFI International Secretariat hasn’t answered to our open letter “The
anti-capitalist bankruptcy under the rise of the Popular Front”. (http://tpr-internet.blogspot.com.ar/2012/07/open-letter-from-tpr-to-pos-xxi.html) This is no casual: we are the
TendenciaPiqueteraRevolucionaria (TPR) from Argentina, organization founded
after our expulsion from PO on June 2009. They reject TPR because they don’t
want to discuss these key issues. They reject TPR because they agree or don’t
want to discuss openly against the anti-capitalist turn.
“DOWN WITH ERDOGAN!” : TURKISH MASSES HAS POSED
POWER ISSUE IN THE CENTER OF ITS STRUGGLE
Masses, who started by defending Taksim Square
from attempts of privatization of the government, now has as slogan “Taksim
would be Tahir” and “Erdogan must renounce”, to honor the Egyptian revolution.
Even the “ColectivoFeministaSocialista” describes the facts very clear: “In
Ankara people goes to the Parliament and in the other towns they go to AKP headquarters
(the ruling party)… AKP government is questioned. It is the first time that
something like this happened in Turkey with this government. Even yesterday at
night, it looks like a sort of “Occupy” movement, but now, it is a massive
popular demonstration which poses against the government to ask for its
resignation” (1/6, www.avanti4.be).Getting the government out would give to masses confidence on its
strength and it would reinforce those who struggle in the streets, as the DIP
says. The TPR, against any speculative method, poses to declare in favor of
what masses are already doing and not to turn its back on them.
THE TURKISH REVOLUTION VERIFIES THAT PO’S
ANTI-CAPITALIST TURN HAD ALREADY TOOK THE CRFI: THIS IS AN OPEN CONFERRENCE
THAT CALLS FOR THE OVERTHROWN OF ALL CAPITALIST GOVERMENTS IN EUROPE… BUT NOT
IN TURKEY
The public appeal of CRFI calls to get out
Merkel, Letta, Rajoy and Coelho but no to kick Erdogan out – one of the most
evident places in the world where the revolutionaries must fight to overthrown
its own goverment. DIP empiricaly recognize a mayor political crisis and that’s
why DiP calls for demission of “Muammar the quimic”. In particular, it’s
starting to show up differences between other ministers and AKP members against
Erdogan but DIP still oposses to raise slogans to use this political
contradictions. From the TPR we refuse to discuss with the masses with a
right-viewpoint because of some uncertain“tactic arguments”. If DIP thinks that the slogan “Down with Erdogan!”
is the slogan of an AKP different sector or other bourgeois group then the DIP
must say it loud and clear. Otherwise, to use the organizational or political
weakness of Turkish workers as an excuse to refuse the revolutionary tasks of
the workers mobilization can only lead to political ruin. We, members of TPR, do
prefer to be wrong with the workers struggle that being right against it.We, as
revolutionaries, must try to resolve the problems through the own struggle. If
the strike has already started, the only revolutionary task is to make our best
effort in order to win. Let’s be clear: if we finally kick Muammar out, it
would be a step forward for the movement. We support that slogan. But in
Turkey, without any doubt, the struggle for kickingErdogan out has already
started. It doesn’t matters what we think is the best. The masses won’t ask us
or wait for us. The problem is if we are in favor or against the slogan
“Down
with Erdogan!”. We cannot refuse this issue.
SungurSavran, the Turkish DIP leader states
“it’s not yet a revolution” and “(the people) are not organized, nor can they
yet become organized so as to set up an alternative government that represents
their aspirations and interests. This is in not a struggle for power” (4/6,
www.redmed.org). But that’s not the central: the key issue it’s to show the
path to our revolutionary goals. This is no new for CRFI: the same problem has
been faced before by PCL in Italy, by EEK in Grecce and now the DIP should do
the same: fight to kick out the capitalist government with the mass struggle.Maybe
the proletarian dictatorship it’s not the next step but to fight a “left
goverment” (Popular Front) which would take power in name of the masses but it all
depends in how deep goes the movement and how powerful is the revolutionary
agitation to show to the masses, through its own experiences, who are they
allies and who arethey foes. We reject the anti-capitalist idea that “power is
not the problem but minimum demands”. It is false that the masses struggle for
workers government and socialism is the future and automatic development of the
class struggle for minimum or tactic demands. We must do as PO in 2001/2002:
kick out the government and ministers, use power slogans and build the united
front for a workers’ government.
The transitional program never was an excuse to
follow the political lack of conscience of the masses but a program to call the
parties and mass organizations who speak in favor of workers and poor peasantsto
break with bourgeois and fight for its own government.Every transitional of
minimum demands that are still defended by workers must be looked in this perspective.
We call the DIP and CRFI to make a call to all organizations to standup firmly with
workers insurgency: Down withErdogan! Let’s make the capitalists pay for the crisis! For workers government!
