Unable to quell a growing protest movement against the February coup, the Kiev regime has mobilised army units to attack the people occupying government buildings in the cities across Ukraine’s east.

The right wing opposition to Venezuela’s elected Chávista government has unleashed a wave of violence to try and oust it.
This has left 32 dead and 461 injured – and despite mainstream media suggestions to the contrary it is the opposition violence that is the principal cause of the deaths.
This Saturday (March 22) at 4.30pm in London there will be a unique opportunity to hear from our very special guest the Venezuelan Government’s Minister for Communications Delcy Rodriguez. This will take place after the important TUC supported Stand Up to Racism (http://www.standuptoracism.org.uk/) event, 10 minutes down the road. You can pre-register here
She will give a briefing & update on the current situation in Venezuela, where recent weeks have seen – as part of a campaign launched by Venezuela’s extreme right-wing opposition leaders forLa Salida (The Ousting of the country’s elected Government) – a wave of violent street disturbances in various parts of Venezuela, & continued Government calls for peace & dialogue.
