Supersonic Aeroplane!

China: Socialist Technology Develops “Super-Sonic” Aeroplane”! (21.1.2025)

Concorde, the first supersonic passenger-carrying commercial airplane, was built jointly by aircraft manufacturers in the United Kingdom and France. It was first flown in 1969 and was put into commercial operation in 1976. However, the epochal jetliner did not fit well in the civil aviation industry due to its loud noise, high fares, stringent requirements for airports and environmental impact.

If everything goes according to plan, the prototype for a commercial-use supersonic airliner named Dasheng — or Monkey King, a legendary hero in Chinese mythology — is expected to conduct its maiden flight in 2030. If that becomes reality, Dasheng will revolutionize the global air transportation sector, he added.

“Just imagine making an intercontinental flight within just two to three hours that you would now spend 10 hours or longer on,” Deng said.

Internationally, enterprises in the United States and Europe have been racing to design and construct a new generation of supersonic airliners to meet the potential demand of fast intercontinental travel.

Cuba is Not Alone!

Havana: In the Face of the Imperialist Onslaught – Cuba Will Win! Statement of the Revolutionary Government! (21.1.2025)

This new act of aggression by the United States government against the Cuban people shows, once again, the true, cruel, merciless objective of these and so many other measures of siege and suffocation, which are applied against Cuba for the purpose of domination. It is a reaction of impotence in the face of the inability to bend our will and in the face of the respect, sympathy and support that the Revolution inspires among the peoples of the world.

The economic blockade, its reinforcement and the new aggressive measures will continue to weigh, with a very damaging effect, on our economy, the standard of living, the potential for development and the legitimate dreams of justice and well-being of the Cuban people, as has been the case in recent years.

Long Live the Communist Party of Palestine!

Gaza: Communist Party of Palestine Statement! (21.1.2025)

These military movements aim to strengthen American hegemony in the region at the expense of the peoples of the Arab region and their aspirations for freedom, independence and separation from imperialist control. If the agreement is implemented, our Palestinian people will find themselves facing a new entitlement in the West Bank, where they will have to defend their existence and rights against the policies of the occupation and the fascist, murderous settler gangs. The large and violent attack on Palestinian villages by these murderers is the greatest evidence of the upcoming challenges. The Palestinian masses in Gaza and the West Bank will remain in a permanent confrontation with the occupation to preserve their dignity and survival, which requires a unified Palestinian position against any form of normalization with the Zionist occupation and confronting its plans and attacks.

UN Began With Good Intentions!

Russia: USSR and [1945] Founding of the UN 80 Years Ago! (21.1.2025)

The creation of the United Nations was the result of the Great Victory in World War II, which was achieved thanks to an unparalleled feat performed by Soviet soldiers and millions of lives of citizens of the USSR, as well as of other states that were part of the Allied troops. The Soviet Union, the successor country to which Russia is now, was at the origins of the UN. It was in Moscow in the autumn of 1943 that the Allies, i.e. representatives of the USSR, the United Kingdom and the USA, agreed to establish an international organisation to protect future generations from another global conflict. Russia then took the leading role in the process, and the idea was refined and finally put into practice at the San Francisco Conference in 1945. The UN became the core of the system developed at the Yalta and Potsdam Conferences, with the UN Charter setting out the fundamental norms of international law that formed the Decalogue for the behaviour of states in the international arena.

Ex-Labour Leader Arrested!

UK: Jeremy Corbyn “Interviewed Under Caution” for Israeli “Anti-Genocide” Protest! (20.1.2025)

The BBC and Sky News both colluded with the (unelected) British Establishment and Israel (which interfered in the internal functioning of the UK political system) to keep Corbyn out of political power because he wanted to a) recognise Palestine and b) return the NHS to the principle of “care” over “cost” (restoring the “Socialist” principle behind it – that Thatcher took away). Although Corbyn is a Trotskyite who has made numerous (false) anti-China statements – for many leftists, the restoration of the NHS was good enough to support Corbyn. The right-wing Labour Government today has not (and will not) reverse one single Tory cut or policy! Starmer’s idea for saving a collapsing (privatising) NHS – is more privatisation! The damage done by US and EU-demanded cuts to the Socialist NHS – is more cuts! What we are seeing below – is the consequence of a dictate issued by 10 Downing Street! The right-wing of the Labour Party wants to permanently “separate” from its traditional left-wing component (and then reform the left out of existence). The antics of Jeremy Corbyn (who had his fellow Trotskyite – George Galloway – “banned” from an earlier Pro-Palestinian march) is a damaging reminder for Starmer of what the Labour Party used to be! Although I quote the BBC and Sky News below – remember these bourgeois entities revel in the demise of the left and are thoroughly right-wing in nature!
