28 years of struggle for socialism. The Union of Democratic Socialists marks its anniversary 🚩✴️ On November 8, the Union of Democratic Socialists (UDS) of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a SOVINTERN co-initiator party, marked the 28th anniversary of its founding. In honour of the anniversary, the party's national chairman, Crispin Kabasele Tshimanga, delivered a speech outlining the country's main socio-economic problems and the tasks of the socialist movement. The celebration was held under the slogan «Together for socialism in the Democratic Republic of the Congo». ⭐️ In his speech, Comrade Crispin addressed the issues of the DRC's economic independence, the fair distribution of national wealth and the raising of the population's living standards. He stressed that genuine sovereignty must have not only a political but also an economic dimension: «True independence must be measured by our country's ability to feed its population, educate its youth, provide citizens with medical care, produce the necessary goods and guarantee a dignified future for the next generations. The UDS must build its activity on the struggle against neocolonial relations of dependence and for international cooperation based on respect for the sovereignty of peoples». 📣 The UDS consistently adheres to the ideals of socialism and advocates social justice, economic sovereignty and a dignified life for the people of the DRC. We highly value the party's contribution to the development of the SOVINTERN international socialist network, its initiative and active participation in strengthening ties between progressive forces in different countries. 🇨🇩🤝 Congratulations to our UDS comrades on the party's anniversary! We wish you further success in your work, new achievements and broad support among the people! #SOVINTERN_NET #Hub_Sub_Saharan_Africa ⭐️ Moscow Network Hub of SOVINTERN
