Greetings From RCP-USA!

To Central Committee Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist)

Dear Comrades,

On the occasion of the first anniversary of the launching of the People's War in your country we send a revolutionary salute to you and through you to all of the comrades of the Party and to all of the fighters who are waging the People's War. We join with you in honouring the memory of those martyrs who have given their lives in the cause of liberation.

The news of the initiation of the People's War in Nepal and its subsequent advances have been greeted with revolutionary enthusiasm by our Central Committee and comrades throughout our Party. Nepal is a country long dominated by imperialism and which is waging New Democratic Revolution while the United States is the largest imperialist predator in the world today which must be overthrown by a socialist revolution. Although the two countries are very different, the struggles of the proletariat in both countries are united as part of a single world proletarian revolution which will sweep aside all imperialism and reaction and usher in the era of communism.

Historical experience has shown that initiating and maintaining a genuine People's War is no easy matter. It requires daring and sacrifice as well as the clarity of vision and sense of purpose that only the leadership of the proletariat and its Marxist-Leninist-Maoist vanguard can provide. The initiation and sustaining of the revolutionary war of the masses in your country is a precious fruit of the long struggle your Party has waged against revisionism and opportunism. It is a great testimony to the strength of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism and is an important victory and source of inspiration not only for the CPN(M) but for the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement, of which we are proud to be a participant together with you and other comrades all over the world.

We all know that the reactionary regime, Indian expansionism and world imperialism will not easily resign to their defeat at the hands of the Nepalese workers, peasants and other revolutionary masses and that the struggle will be bitter and complex. The CPN(M) has declared its intention to carry through the armed revolutionary struggle until the complete defeat of the reactionary regime and the victory of the New Democratic Revolution. With this orientation and by firmly grasping the correct Marxist-Leninist-Maoist line, the CPN(M) will surely advance wave upon wave, solve new problems as they arise, and overcome all obstacles in the course of the People's War.

Comrades, the Revolutionary Communist Party fully supports you. The revolutionary warfare in your country is every day more a shining beacon for the oppressed masses in the United States and the world over, pointing to the path of People's War, which alone can bring about the defeat of imperialism and reaction and open the door to bright new future of socialism and communism.

Central Committee, Revolutionary Communist Party, USA
