Transcript | 22 WOMEN IN THE I want to say that we look upon our achievements not as something for which we have to thank ourselves alone. Our Party grew strong by learning from the international proletariat, from the German, British, French, working class. We, who had to work among the proletariat of a backward country, studied the international movement carefully. We learnt from it, and only after we had understood those experiences could we organise ourselves in such a way as to make possible our victory over the landlords and capitalists, the seizure of power by the workers. Only because our working class learnt from the international working class, could the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics be established. In our Union, working shoulder to shoulder, there are strong and weak peoples who were oppressed by capitalist society. There are a large number of small tribes belonging to our Union. Under capitalism they were oppressed and enslaved. But to-day they are growing ever more conscious of the new life, co-operating with us in creating a new culture which is a sure guarantee that our country, in which all peoples work together in fraternal unity, is unconquerable. We do not separate the cause of our country from the cause of the international proletariat. We know that if the capitalists of other countries dare to wage a mad war against us, it will be the beginning of the end for them, for that war will, in its course, change into a civil war, and its end will be world revolution. That is all that I wanted to say to you here. |
