p On behalf of millions of Communists, we participants in the International Meeting of Communist and Workers’ Parties send fraternal revolutionary greetings to our Indonesian comrades.

p Having proclaimed anti-communism as the foundation of their policy, the reactionary forces of Indonesia in alliance with world reaction have brutally put to death leaders of the Communist Party and massacred hundreds of thousands of Communists and other patriots, and subjected their families to repressions and persecution. This is the fourth year of unceasing bloodbath in Indonesia. Thousands of patriots are in prison or concentration camps, or exiled to certain death in the foulest parts of the country. The present rulers of Indonesia have banned the ideas of scientific socialism. They seek to exclude from Indonesian political life everybody who cherishes the democratic gains of the people. The crimes of the military dictatorship in Indonesia and its antinational policy are wrathfully denounced by the whole of progressive mankind.

p The communist movement lives on in Indonesia despite the police terror. Under the extraordinarily difficult conditions of underground activity many Indonesian Communists are fighting to restore the Communist Party of Indonesia and uphold the interests of the working people. They courageously defend the country’s national independence against the inroads of imperialism, which makes use of the anti-popular and anti-national policy of the Indonesian ruling circles..

p The international Meeting pays homage to Indonesian Communists who fell victim to the bloody terror and expresses its internationalist solidarity with those who are continuing the struggle. The Meeting believes in the future of the fraternal Party, that it will overcorrie the difficulties of the present period. We are convinced that by firmly adhering to the principles of Marxism- Leninism and proletarian internationalism the Indonesian Communists, in alliance with other progressive democratic forces of Indonesia, will lead their people to the triumph of the bright ideals of genuine national independence, progress and socialism.
