At the start of February, as Trump was amassing his armada in the Persian Gulf, as the people of Minnesota engaged in head on struggle with ICE, as the crimes of the ruling class in the Epstein files left the world aghast – 90 leading revolutionary communists from around the world gathered in Italy.

On a profoundly historic weekend, nearly 20 revolutionary communists and sympathisers from across Taiwan, together with comrades from the International Centre of the Revolutionary Communist International in London, gathered in Taipei for an intensive, tightly organised, and politically rich series of discussions. These discussions not only raised the comrades’ theoretical level, but also set out a clearer and more forward-looking direction for our work ahead internationally, and in Taiwan.

Since 3 January and US imperialism’s criminal assault on Venezuela, comrades of the Revolutionary Communist International have been out on the streets and in the media, emphasising that only the organised resistance of the working class has the power to put an end to imperialism.

Towards the last days of the turbulent year 2025, the Inqalabi Communist Party (Revolutionary Communist Party, RCP) organised a three day ‘Central Communist School’ (Winter 2025) from 19 to 21 December, and a one day ‘Communist Festival’ on 18 December in Karachi, Pakistan’s largest city, in which more than 250 comrades participated.

Revolutions, general strikes, wars, assassinations, and government collapses. These have been some of the defining themes of 2025, which has been one of those years that contain decades.

Trump 2.0. Tariff wars. Hot wars between India and Pakistan, Israel and Iran. Looming defeat for the ‘Collective West’ in Ukraine. Revolutionary events in Serbia, Indonesia, Nepal, Morocco, and Madagascar. General strikes in Greece, France, Belgium, and Portugal. Two internationalist, anti-imperialist general strikes for Gaza in Italy, and the crumbling of the authority of the traditional tools of capitalist rule. 2025 has been quite a year…

It has been almost two months since we debuted our new, feature-length documentary, The Communists Are Coming – A Visual Manifesto. The film has been a huge success, with over 40,000 views on YouTube already, and a flood of write-ins from young revolutionaries inspired to join our ranks! A worldwide theatrical tour concluded this weekend in London and Zurich, following packed screenings across four continents.

It is 28 November, a Friday afternoon. The Revolutionary Communist Party’s (RKP) centre in Stockholm is awash with feverish activity. Stacks of boxes of books have been lined up in rows and are being systematically collected by members of the RKP’s Stockholm university branch using two trolleys. In other rooms, people are rehearsing their contributions to the weekend's discussions, someone is preparing an article – visitors from other cities in the country are looking around.

Over the last two weeks, over 350 communists gathered in Switzerland for two ‘schools of communism’, organised by the Revolutionary Communist Party (German: RKP. French: PCR), Swiss section of the RCI. 

Last weekend, 1,200 communists gathered for Revolution Festival 2025, the largest openly communist event in Britain in decades. Youthful energy, a burning desire to study Marxism, revolutionary optimism, and theoretical clarity all made this a landmark event. 

On the weekend of 8-9 November, the Organización Comunista Revolucionaria (OCR), the Spanish section of the RCI, held its first national Marxist School in Madrid. It was a great success. This marks an important step in the development of our section as it was the first time that we have held two major national events in the same year.

Danish politicians live on another planet. They busy themselves taking selfies, slinging mud at each other and propagandising ahead of the local elections.

Days after a self-described democratic socialist won the New York mayoral election, over 300 communists sang a rousing rendition of “The Internationale” to conclude the third and final installment of the RCA’s 2025 Marxist School series.

Communism has returned to Chicago! In a city with a rich history of labor struggles—including the world-famous Haymarket martyrs and the fight for a forty hour work week—about 200 revolutionary communists met on October 25–26 for the first-ever RCA Chicago Marxist School.

We are very proud to announce that The Communists Are Coming: a Visual Manifesto – a new, feature-length documentary produced by the Revolutionary Communist International – premieres today at 18:00 British time. The whole documentary will be available to watch on Youtube, chronicling the first year of the RCI and explaining the importance of building an international revolutionary organisation today.
