(en) Russia, AIT: May 1, 2024: No war other than class! Fight with the state and employers, and not with other workers! (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

The population of various countries around the world is in a state of
fratricidal wars, killing in the name of various conflicts, usually
generated by those in power. Those who are motivated to fight are
motivated by profit, serve an ideology, or act out of national hatred
that pits people against each other. These armed conflicts serve to
divert attention from the real oppressors. ---- Whether in Gaza,
Ukraine, Sudan, Ethiopia or Myanmar, despite the differences in
circumstances, the results are the same. Thousands of lives were
senselessly sacrificed at a huge social and economic cost. Young people
being forced to take up arms. While thousands of Russians with
sufficient financial means are fleeing the country to avoid
participating in the war, the army is conscripting the poorest members
of other ethnic groups and is also recruiting the desperate poor from
Nepal. While millions of Americans remain without the most basic health
care and are unable to meet the most basic needs of life, taxes squeezed
from the working class are used to finance the massacre in Gaza. These
are just two of the most obvious examples of how workers in these
countries are forced to finance or directly participate in a war that
does not serve their interests.
It is clear to the International Labor Association that the working
class has nothing to gain from these wars or from the nationalist
distractions that divide people for the benefit of others at the top.
MAT. calls on all the working people of the world to oppose these wars
and, if in their power, to take anti-war action.
As stated in our Statutes, Anarcho-syndicalism "demands a boycott and
embargo of all raw materials and products necessary for war" and
"advocates a preventive and revolutionary general strike as a means of
opposing war and militarism."
On May Day, we defend the rights of workers in many ways, but on this
May Day, let us not forget about the right of working people to live
without the threat of war, without the threat of conscription and
without the waste of public funds for the purpose of murder.
Secretary General of the International Labor Association
