Dear comrades!

The black period of capitalist restoration at the Soviet territory since 1991 has resulted to mass impoverishment of working people, to its rapid extinction, during the new bourgeoisie is enriching permanently at the expense of robbing and exploitation of wretched citizens. Physical and moral genocide is going on in our country since in the USSR times we didn’t know mass hunger, drug addiction and prostitution. New bourgeois laws and security agencies defend this extremely unjust situation, the disobedient are put into prison for years and even murdered. We know what those who are in prison are subjected to because we have been there ourselves and we managed to get out. But a lot of our comrades there still need our aid to survive, to get liberty and to continue their struggle. The amount of political prisoners in the ex-USSR increases. Many of those who get liberty cannot find a job, have to live without papers and without a permanent habitation, but in spite of personal poverty we continue to render our imprisoned comrades material and moral assistance as it is significantly worse for them than for us. Their lives and health are in danger, every day they are subjected to different humiliations. To communicate with our arrested comrades we have to cover large distances, to cross state boundaries. In this respect we appeal to you with a request to go to the expense of us for more effective assistance to our imprisoned comrades which is necessary for future socialist revolution. We must not permit the bourgeois regime prisoners’ death!
