The MLCP, the section of the international communist movement in Turkey and Northern Kurdistan, was founded on September 10 1994. The MLCP. is the product of the process of unity lead by the communists from 1989 on and was established through the unity of TDKIH, TKIH, TKP-ML Hareketi and TKP -ML (YIÖ). After the fascist coup of 1980 the revolutionary movement of Turkey suffered from a huge defeat and between 1980 and 1987 the revolutionary movement in Turkey decreased. It was only after 1987 when the movement entered a process of reformation. During the same period the armed Kurdish national struggle lead by the PKK greatly developed and achieved a new level of national revolution at the beginning of the `90ies. This situation brought the duty on the agenda of strengthening the national revolution through the „foundation of a revolutionary workers movement” in Turkey. On the other hand the working class` struggle started to develop with the Netas strike (1987) and the actions and strikes in the spring of 1989. However, the workers` movement and the communist movement developed separately from each other. These requirements united the principle of the unification of the communists with the current political duty of ending the communists` situation of being splitted and ineffective during this important process. The foundation process of the MLCP was accompanied with different incidents on the international level, such as when during 1989-1991 classic capitalism took the place of modern revisionism in the SU and the East European countries and the respective propaganda by the imperialist bourgeoisie that socialism and the class struggle did not longer exist any more and an intensive liquidation period. With the unification period the communists in Turkey and Northern Kurdistan and of the international front fulfilled an important duty. The efforts and the specific method with which the unification revolution had been realised were the experience that belong to the treasure of the international communist movement. The MLCP leads the struggle for the proletariat’s liberation to destroy capitalism, the wage slavery system and to found socialism. It fights for the proletarian dictatorship to reach communism which is its eternal aim. The anti-imperialist democratic revolution program of the MLCP contains the foundation of the Union of the Soviet Republics of the Workers and Labourers on the basis of the unity of voluntariness, freedom and equality of the people of Turkey and Northern Kurdistan. Recently after its foundation the MLCP quickly draw attention to it especially through the uprising in Gazi in Istanbul in March 1995, the struggle against disappearance which developed while comrade Hasan Ocak was forced disappearanced under arrest, the raid on Sultanbeyli , Istanbul, in March 1996 and the struggle of the students` youth in 1996 against the university fees; and because of its ability to unite and involve, with its strong political capacity of reacting and its power to foresee. Especially after the third congress in 2002 the MLCP strongly interfered into every area of the social struggle; its efforts to hinder the NATO summit in Istanbul in 2004, the campaign against the slavery laws in 2003 which aim at the working class and its line against the annihilation and extinction policy against the Kurdish policy. All this made the party bbecome the target of the fascist enemy. Our party MLCP lead its 13 year lasting struggle under the eternal fire of the enemy. The MLCP has hundreds of militants who were tortured and hundreds who were imprisoned. Many of its militants became martyrs. Last year the fascist dictatorship imprisoned once again dozens revolutionaries and communists by carrying out operations on September 10, the foundation year of our party. The state forces that named this as the Gaye (Aim) Operation on the MLCP proclaimed that our party had been destroyed. Now a year of struggle under fire has passed since the operation. The past year has shown that the fascist dictatorship`s attacks to break hope have not been sucessful and that the party has constantly increased its political struggle in all areas. As the expression of this enthusiastic march the 13th year of foundation was celebrated together with workers and labourers on the streets all over Turkey and Northern Kurdistan. A year after the mass detentions a huge number of revolutionaries and socialists have still been imprisoned. On October 26 the “10 September prisoners” will be taken to court in Istanbul. The public prosecution demands altogether 3000 years for these 23 revolutionaries who have been imprisoned on September 8-12 and have been behind bars since then although there has not been any trial with a sentence. At this trial the fascist dictatorship does not only want to take revenge of some leaders of the working class, but at the same time it plans to start a huge attack on socialism, the revolution and communist party. At this trial two wills will meet each other and the whole world will see that even fascism, torture and isolation could not hide the reality, that socialism will free the world and that the fighters for socialism can not be defeated. We call on all revolutionary and communist organisations to show solidarity with the 10 September prisoners and to be with us in this fight to defend communism at the tribunals of fascism. We call on you to organise protest actions in front of Turkish ambassies and consulates in your countries. You could send protest fax and mails to the Turkish president, the Minister for Justice and the court at Besiktas and take part in the international delegation coming to Istanbul to watch the trial.
