Many communist parties of the former USSR have sent him floral bouquets, notably those of Armenia 🇦🇲, Moldova 🇲🇩, Georgia 🇬🇪, Kyrgyzstan 🇰🇬, South Ossetia, Abkhazia, Transnistria and Tajikistan 🇹🇯, as well as the Communist Party of the Soviet Union that unites them all.

So too the PD of Equatorial Guinea 🇬🇶, the Communist Parties of Germany 🇩🇪, Portugal 🇵🇹 and Bulgaria 🇧🇬, the Socialist Workers’ Party and the World Workers’ Party 🇺🇸, the Communist Party of Canada (Marxist-Leninist) 🇨🇦, the Romanian Socialist Party 🇷🇴, the FLN 🇩🇿, the FRELIMO 🇲🇿, Juche study groups, associations of friendship with the DPRK, and individual personalities.

Cuba: My Study of Che Guevara’s Work! (27.2.2026)

27/02/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Oddly, Audible, despite hosting some fairly right-wing and far-right tomes – to its credit – it also hosts Marx, Engels, Lenin, Mao Zedong, Ho Chi Minh, and Che Guevara (amongst others). Yes – some are bourgeois aberrations – but others are straight from the original ideological source material and convey clear Socialist and Communist thinking. So far – so good. Recently, whilst carrying-out my academic work of translating ancient Chinese texts into English – I play audio-books in the background – so I can continue to “learn” whilst working. This is how, over the last three-months, I made an effort to study the Cuban Revolutionary experience. This came about after I had a conversation (a few years ago) with a Spanish man now living in Sutton – who surprised me when he said he had no interest in China or the USSR – but rather the Central and South American experience. This got me thinking – as I used to generally integrate all these movements – assuming they were different aspects of the 1917 Russian Revolution (which of course they are). The point is that different ethno-centric experiences abound – even if we are political allies all heading in the same ideological direction.

DPRK: Europe in Trouble Due to US-Enforced Support for Neo-Nazi Ukraine! (23.2.2026)

23/02/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Four years have passed since the outbreak of the Ukrainian crisis. After confronting Russia as a Western assault brigade, Ukraine has ended up on the defensive. It has lost countless soldiers and its economy is in ruins. Even according to the extremely underestimated figures released by the Ukrainian army, there are around 200,000 deserters and 2 million draft evaders. The total lack of young people ready to fight has led to the introduction of a law that imposes compulsory conscription for those over 60.

Seoul: North Korea “Staggered” at Draconian Nature of US Justice Enforced in ROK! (20.2.2026)

Yoon became the country’s third former president to stand trial on insurrection charges, following former Presidents Chun Doo-hwan and Roh Tae-woo, who were convicted for military coup and brutal crackdown under martial law.

The Seoul court merged three trials in December last year for eight suspects, including Yoon and seven other senior military and police officials, charged with performing critical duties in the insurrection.

The court handed former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun a 30-year prison sentence, convicting him of performing a significant role in the insurrection.

The special counsel team sought life imprisonment for Kim, whom it called a mastermind who planned and led the insurrection alongside Yoon by mobilizing the military.

Former Defense Intelligence Commander Noh Sang-won and former National Police Agency Commissioner Cho Ji-ho received prison terms of 18 and 12 years, respectively, for their key roles in the insurrection.

UK: Our Chinese New Year Cards & Coins [2026-4724]! (17.2.2026)

17/02/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

The Trump II era is currently pumping-out the propaganda that “Chinese New Year” is NOT “Chinese” (i.e. not relatable to the 1.8 billion people who inhabit Mainland China) – but is in fact merely the “Lunar New Year” which belongs to everyone but the “Chinese”. Apparently, whilst using coded messaging in the mainstream press suggesting that “old” and “oppressive” regimes should be “overthrown” – the US anti-intellectualism that controls the White House does not seem to realise that there are MANY “lunar” calendar that do not align with the Chinese version (the Buddhist and Mohammedans are two examples). Ironically, within China there are both Buddhists and Muslims who celebrate the Chinese New Year – because they are “Chinese”. Outside of China, Muslims tend to reject anything not permitted by their religious leaders – although Buddhists are far more flexible (as they do not worship an “imagined” theistic entity). The point of Chinese New Year is to share the joy of this “Spring Festival” as traditionally people looked forward to a new rice-crop that would sustain the nation!
