Here we see that the PTB is a revisionist organization, an enemy of Maoism, compromised to the neck to the Teng's gang, who usurped the dictatorship of the proletariat in China, and turned themselves into political leaders of capitalist restoration.
President Gonzalo stated in The Interview: "The actual course in China is a revisionist course that is really led by a sinister character, the old and rotten revisionist, Teng Xiao-ping." Furthermore, "Teng is the one who is taking China, formerly "socialist" to an accelerated and unfettered restoration of capitalism."
Four years later, in 1990, the PTB published an article on the repression of students of Tiananmen, entitled: "To Understand Tiananmen," in which its leader Ludo Martens (formerly a right hand of the sinister opportunist Grippa) stated the following:
"The ten years of reform by Teng have contributed enormous material progress . . . It is a tactic long prepared by the CIA (referring to the student mobilization) . . . " "Since China began preaching an economic policy that implies the development of a capitalist sector and the introduction of multinationals, the first antisocialist forces have appeared on the political domain . . . "
Here Ludo Martens shows us Teng's "Socialist China," that represses a student mobilization "organized by the CIA," a "socialist country" compatible with a capitalist economy! This is the position of the PTB, allied to LAB and his World Commission of Opportunism, a position reflecting the worst of modern revisionism, a position nourished by the journalist LAB.
President Gonzalo correctly pointed out the following in the Document "Rectification
Campaign":
"Revisionists in the USSR since 1956, from Khrushchev to the infamous Gorbachev, and in
China since 1976 up to now, with Teng Xiao-ping, have usurped the dictatorship of the
proletariat, restored capitalism and destroyed socialism, therefore, revisionism is the political
leadership of the restoration."
"To uphold, defend and apply Marxism-Leninism-Maoism is a decisive factor in the development of the world proletarian revolution, to demolish imperialism and international reaction and crush revisionism."
The fundamental part of this is: To uphold, defend and apply; principally to apply, which means the application of Marxism to crush revisionism, since imperialism cannot be fought without fighting revisionism. On this matter, LAB and his wet nurse, the PTB, won't comment.
In November 1992, Issue No. 23 of "Revista Solidarity Internationale," was published by the
Anti-Imperialist League (led by the PTB), "a prestigious Belgian organization" according to Mr.
LAB. This issue was devoted to Peru, with the headline: The 1990's Vietnam, where we find
articles by Ludo Martens, and Mr. LAB. In the introduction by Mr. Martens we find the
following:
Is this a minor neglect that we should overlook? No. It reflects Martens' negation of Maoism, and his subservient position on Teng's rotten revisionism, with which the petty-bourgeois journalist LAB generally converged in the six articles he wrote for the PTB magazine. Only once timidly mentioned Marxism-Leninism-Maoism. Did he forget about it? Obviously not. On page 46, speaking of his struggle for socialism, LAB says: "The armed struggle in Peru has a result, a stimulus at the international level, in a context characterized by an intense anticommunist campaign, and the failure of the tyrannies and military bureaucracies in the countries of the East, where even the word socialism is repressed."
Here the answer to his forgetfulness has a clear and specific explanation: In speaking of "tyrannies and military repression in the countries of the East," LAB makes no mention of the blood stained revisionist gang of Teng, that is: The leadership of the capitalist restoration in China. At no time does LAB denounce Teng's revisionist gang, thus opposing what the PCP and President Gonzalo pointed out in 1991:
"We reaffirm with absolute conviction that Maoism is the most decisive, on this matter no doubt can hound us nor paralyze us, we communists, the class, the revolutionaries, are optimists, and nothing will stop us."
"Therefore, this is a general counterrevolutionary offensive attempting to prevent revolution as the principal, historical, and political trend in the world today. Who are those aiming at revolution? Imperialism and revisionism. Both of them, together"
With respect to the second point, it is necessary to make a comparative analysis. On EDI, No. 11, February 1992, LAB wrote an article entitled: "The Tractor of Opportunism Making International Parallelism." This article was a direct attack on "Tractor" magazine (then published by some academics in Paris) because according to LAB, it presented the PCP as an indigenist, Inca, and metaphysical organization that attempted to roll back history. However, the rotten and nauseating attitude is revealed when we read the Revista Solidarite Internationale, which appeared a few months later (Nov. 1992) where LAB's wet nurse, the PTB, cooks a llama stew with President Gonzalo, Pachacuti, Tupac Yupanqui and Atahuallpa as seasonings. This is the indigenist thesis that LAB pretends to denounce. The PTB magazine ends with an article which calls for "indefectible support to Cuba, Socialism and the Cuban Communist Party."
We now see that the concentrated individualism of LAB took him first to adamantly oppose organized work through the PCP-generated organizations abroad (MPP). He turned his EDI into a battle horse against any person or organization who dares to disagree with him and his EDI, and tried to fool some people abroad that his EDI is the PCP's position, and that he is its "representative" abroad.
Acting out of selfish interest, and showing his spirit of factionalism by calling a World Mobilization of Opportunism, integrated by the PTB, and himself as leader, LAB shows the narrowest individualism. His mercenary mentality makes him more interested in his sponsor PTB, than the revolution.
Objectively, we'd like to ask: What are LAB and his World Commission of Opportunism after? Looking at this individual's characteristics, we think LAB, together with his accomplice, the British provocateur Olaechea, aim at spreading confusion and splits between individuals and organizations that honestly support the People's War in Peru. He focuses his attacks on the PCP-generated abroad, and mainly against the brave comrades of the MPP (USA) who exposed his treacherous position, and who at the same time, have been conducting the struggle against the opportunism of Co-RIM (mainly the "arribista" Avakian.) To this end, LAB launched the call to the World Commission of Opportunism, and gathered (in paper only) the most rotten garbage pile of revisionism (PTB) and reaction (MIM), where he would become the "maximum leader."
No one will be able to stop nor tarnish the People's War in Peru, the torch of the World Proletarian Revolution, led by the heroic fighting Communist Party of Peru and its Central Committee. A Party forged in the class struggle by President Gonzalo, incarnating Gonzalo Thought, creative application of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism to the specific conditions of the Peruvian revolution and advancing victoriously to the Conquest of Power and the final goal: Communism.
Long Live President Gonzalo, Leader of the Party and the Revolution!
Long Live Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, Gonzalo Thought!
Long Live the Communist Party of Peru and its Central Committee!
Long Live the People's War in Peru!
Down with the World Commission of Opportunism!
Death to Revisionism!
