Solidarity with the People of Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe was invaded in 1890 by a British detachment commanded by businessman and colonizer Cecil Rhodes. Since that date, the entire population of Zimbabwe has continued to rise up and oppose the invader, waging relentless combat.
To maintain itself and strengthen its positions, the enemy found the necessary help and reinforcements from the British colonial army established in South Africa. After famous battles, the people of Zimbabwe decided to use all forms of struggle.
In 1920, the African people of Zimbabwe began to group themselves into political parties which laid the foundations of the current political situation marked by the existence of the African National Council (ANC) of Zimbabwe.
In 1923, Britain decided to grant Zimbabwe's white settlers self-government. Following this decision, various repressive and discriminatory laws were promulgated against the African people.
All fertile lands were confiscated by force for the benefit of the settlers. After the banning of all political parties by the various regimes formed by the minority of white settlers who succeeded one another in power, the people of Zimbabwe made the decision to engage in armed struggle.
Suffering heavy losses in men and materials, the Rhodesian racist forces are currently engaging in aggression against neighboring African countries (Zambia and Malawi) under what is called the “right of pursuit”.
