Trump on January 6 -- public domain image By D. Raja, General Secretary, Communist Party of India The year 2026 has begun with a dangerous alarm for the future of the world, showing the blood-stained fangs of imperialism. The United States, under President Donald Trump, carried out a terrible attack on Venezuela, forcibly captured the incumbent President of Venezuela Nicolás Maduro and transferred him to the United States to face prosecution. This was not a covert operation a

This assumption overlooks a fundamental historical reality. In the 1979 revolution, the Iranian people dismantled not only the rule of the Pahlavi monarchy but also the system of domination through which US imperialism exercised decisive influence over Iran

Rather than being an isolated event, the increasing bravado of and remarks from President Donald Trump open the terrifying possibility that, if not opposed, Trump’s war machine will proliferate

By Biljana Vankovska The New Year did not begin with hope or joy, except for the arms dealers. More precisely, for the military-industrial-media-academic-NGO complex that feeds on permanent war. Orders are flowing, profits are booming, and blood has once again become a growth sector. For any normal society, pirates belong in adventure films, not in the civilian power corridor. Yet Venezuela, more precisely, its legally elected president Nicolás Maduro, became the first trophy

Britain's Communist Party has condemned the latest threats against Cuba and challenged the British government to uphold international law. At the party's Political Committee on Sunday (January 11) , general secretary Robert Griffiths was responding to President Trump's announcement that the 64-year long economic embargo embargo on Cuba would now include all exports of Venezuela oil to the Caribbean island. US forces have also hijacked Venezuelan and Russian-flagged oil tanker

Following the deployment of U.S. forces in the Caribbean with the pretext of war against drug trafficking and after the first land strike on a dock area inside the country, the USA uncontrollably escalates its aggression by conducting of a large-scale strike against Karakas, capturing of the President Nikolas Maduro and Cilia Flores. The US is intensifying its aggression against the sovereign people of Venezuela, threatening at the same time the whole region, reviving the Mon

The recent military aggression by the United States and the kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro constitute the most serious and explicit attack that US imperialism has carried out in the entire history of the Venezuelan nation.

The relationship between Cuba and Venezuela transcends traditional diplomacy; it is a phenomenon of direct confrontation against imperialism and a model of cooperation between peoples that has transformed the geopolitics of the Caribbean and South America. This alliance is not a recent or improvised development; it has deep roots, and its destruction has become a primary strategic objective for the United States.

By Atul Chandra and Tings Chak On January 3, 2026, the United States did not merely bomb a sovereign country and capture its president. It displayed, in the most unambiguous terms, a total defiance of the post-War international order that it helped create. When US special forces captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife and National Assembly deputy Cilia Flores from Caracas and transported them to a Brooklyn jail, they did not simply violate Venezuelan sover

The initial bewilderment that followed in the first hours after the US military operation has given way to actions of denunciati

In yet another demented social media rant, Donald Trump threatened Cuba today saying that the embargoed nation would no longer be allowed to get any oil from Venezuela. “THERE WILL BE NO MORE OIL OR MONEY GOING TO CUBA – ZERO! I strongly suggest they make a deal, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform on Sunday. He also accused Cuba of "extortion" against Venezuela, especially ironic given that his government bombed Caracas, kidnapped its president a

By Shadab Murtaza In the analysis of contemporary struggles against oppression and exploitation, a recurring pattern emerges particularly on social media spaces in which debates are often artificially reduced to a false binary. On one side is the defense of local ruling elites and bourgeois governments; on the other is the endorsement of imperialist intervention and externally imposed regime change. This framing not only distorts the reality of class struggle but also sideli

The events of the first week of January constitute an escalation of a long-standing campaign to overthrow the Bolivarian Revolution and resume control on the country with the largest known oil reserve
