Today I’m talking to Joti Brar, one of the leaders of the Communist Party of Great Britain, the editor of the party’s publication, and the Spokesperson for the World Anti-Imerialist Platform.

Joti Brar of CPGB-ML is the daughter of the late Harpal Brar.

“Neutrality Studies” is some Swiss nonsense, but at least they’ll listen to communists and anti-imperialists.

What makes a man turn neutral? Lust for gold? Power?

Imperialism isn’t about the creation of vassals, it’s an economic division of the world, which Russia certainly does.

Imperialism is about economic exploitation, and not every economic relationship is exploitative. Until imperialism & capitalism is eradicated, the world will be divided into blocs, but not every bloc will be an imperialist one, because not every state will be imperialist or imperialized. Some will be non-vassalized capitalist states (known as “non-aligned” during the first Cold War), like Iran, and some will be socialist states, like Vietnam.
