From The Militant, Vol. II No. 10, 1 May 1929, p. 9.
Transcribed by Jan Leder.
Marked up by Einde O’Callaghan for ETOL.
The Militant has just received the first information about the Communist Opposition that has been organized in the Chinese Communist Party. A letter from China states – we quote it as it was written in English – “Chinese Oppositionists, Bolshevik-Leninists, have begun to fight with the opportunism. We are deeply believed that with continuing achievement, Chinese revolution will going again according the way of Leninism. But we are youngest in the world. We want the moral and material assistances from the international Oppositionists. We shall tell you about the present conditions as much as can, when received the letter from you.
The appearance of the first organized movement in the Chinese Party basing itself on the platform of the International Opposition led by comrade Trotsky will be joyfully greeted by every revolutionary fighter. Especially in China did the revisionist line of Stalin-Bucharin-Martinov cause the greatest damage to the revolutionary movement by enslaving the proletariat and the peasantry under the yoke of the bourgeoisie under Chiang Kai-Shek, Wang Chin Wei and Co. The struggle of the Opposition gains new strength, among the revolutionary elements with every new blow of persecution dealt it by the Stalinite apparatus!
