Communist Party of Belarus

The Belarusian Communist Party of Belarus is a political party that operates within the framework of the Republic of Belarus. It is a successor to the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU) that existed in the Belarusian SSR before the dissolution of the…   Soviet Union. As a political entity, it adheres to the principles and ideology of Marxism-Leninism, aiming to establish a socialist society as a precursor to the eventual realization of communism.<br /><br />The party values are deeply rooted in the belief in the working class's leading role in society and the need for a vanguard party to guide the proletariat towards the overthrow of capitalism and the establishment of a dictatorship of the proletariat. This entails the collective ownership of the means of production, the abolition of private property in favor of state or communal ownership, and the creation of a classless society where wealth and power are distributed equitably.<br /><br />The Belarusian Communist Party advocates for a strong, centralized government that can ensure economic planning and social welfare, prioritizing the needs of the majority over individual profit. It also emphasizes the importance of international solidarity among the working classes of different countries, supporting struggles against imperialism and for national liberation.<br /><br />In the context of Belarus, the party is supportive of the country's sovereignty and has often aligned with the policies of the current government, particularly in its opposition to Western influence and its promotion of closer ties with Russia and other post-Soviet states. However, it also criticizes aspects of the government's economic policies, particularly those that seem to move away from socialist principles.<br /><br />Overall, the Belarusian Communist Party seeks to represent the interests of workers and to promote a vision of society that is based on equality, social justice, and collective welfare, drawing on the historical legacy and ideological foundations of communism as it was developed in the 20th century.Читати далі
