On behalf of the IWU-FI, Izquierda Socialista (Socialist Left) convened on Saturday 8 July an internationalist rally in Buenos Aires to honour the historic revolutionary victory of October 1917 and the closing of the Sixth Congress of the international organisation.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In a climate of struggle not devoid of emotion, militants and leaders of Izquierda Socialista, together with representatives of their sister parties of the International Workers Unity \u2013 Fourth International (IWU-FI), trade union delegations and friends of the party, we gathered on Saturday in the auditorium of the Faculty of Social Sciences of the University of Buenos Aires to commemorate the centenary of the Russian Revolution, vindicating the validity of the theoretical and political legacy of Lenin and Trotsky, and the founder of our current, Nahuel Moreno. The event also marked the closing of the Sixth Congress of the IWU-FI, in which leaders of the various sections debated the world political situation and defined the revolutionary policy for the next three years.<\/p>\n

The following delegations were present at the event: Corrente Socialista dos Trabalhadores [Socialist Current of the Workers] (CST-PSOL) of Brazil; Partido Socialismo y Libertad (Socialism and Liberty Party \u2013 PSL) of Venezuela; ARPT and Fuersa of Bolivia, in process of unification; Movimiento Socialista de los Trabajadores (Socialist Movement of the Workers \u2013 MST) of Chile; Un\u00edos (Together) from Peru; Propuesta Socialista (Socialist Proposal \u2013 PS) of Panama; Movimiento Al Socialismo (Movement for Socialism \u2013 MAS, formerly POS) of Mexico; Lucha Internacionalista (Internationalist Struggle \u2013 LI) of the Spanish State; Groupe Socialiste Internationaliste (Socialist Internationalist Group \u2013 GSI) of France; \u0130\u015f\u00e7i Demokrasisi Partisi (Workers’ Democracy Party \u2013 IDP) of Turkey, as well as comrades from the sympathising organizations Luta Socialista (Socialist Fight \u2013 LS) of Brazil and KRD of Germany, and comrades from Norway. Their representatives took the stage in the middle of a warm welcome together with Izquierda Socialista MPs Juan Carlos Giordano and Laura Marrone, and comrade Miguel Sorans, leader of Izquierda Socialista and of the International Secretariat of IWU-FI. Also present were important leaders of Izquierda Socialista who lead the slates to legislators and MPs of the FIT, among them Buenos Aires Province deputy Monica Schlotthauer, Rub\u00e9n \u00abPollo\u00bb Sobrero, Angelica Lagunas \u2014 accompanied by an important delegation of teachers from Neuqu\u00e9n and by Elizabeth Hern\u00e1ndez (Mother of Brian, an emblematic case of \u00abeasy trigger\u00bb in Neuqu\u00e9n)\u2014 and Jorge Adaro. Comrade Liliana Olivero, a candidate for national deputy, sent her greetings from C\u00f3rdoba. Also in the rally, there were workers from PepsiCo and Argensun, fighting against layoffs. A delegate of PepsiCo spoke and important collections were made for the fighting funds. Also attending were Andrea D’Atri, leader of the PTS; Oscar Schaller, plaintiff against the genocidal Milani in the mega-cause of La Rioja; and Juan Carlos Coral, presidential candidate in 1973 of the \u00abglorious PST\u00bb.<\/p>\n
