United Red Front

On behalf of the Republic of Venzuela, I would like to invite all like minding leftist countries to join the United Red Front. I envisage this group of nations to work together in the areas of education, healthcare and environmentalism as well as assisting each other in matters of defence when faced with threats in the hostile world we live in. Democracy is to be encouraged and the will of the People must prevail.

On behalf of Iran, I'd love to join your leftist block, but fear that it may betray... *sigh*... my hardline Islamic principles.

Venezuela acknowledges the wide ideological gap between our two nations, but hopes that this does not get in the way of mutually beneficial collaboration.

On behalf of truly leftist Bulgaria, I would like to join in for the sake of preserving the spirit, traditions, welfare and original patriarchical values of our country while at the same time establishing valuable links with countries such as Yours.

Regardless of race, colour and religion, we shall be successful in our endeavours since the very fact that there is a will to unite our efforts speaks for itself in a very clear way.

Bulgaria has always been a true helper and preacher of socialist values and principles.

Wow, how did you get Iran?
But then, I'd be pretty much too left-wing for Iran.

Oh and on behalf of Somalia and Tuvalu, I'd join.

I resigned because I couldn't face impersonating a Mullah.

Welcome Somalia and Tuvalu (you represent two countries?)

Also welcome the great country of Bulgaria
This organisation is evil. Singapore will remove all diplomatic posts from Venezula, Iran, Somalia and Tuvalu.

Sweden.


It advocates leftist dogma which will bring economic destruction to the world. It also advocates pure democracy as opposed to liberal democracy. The former is very dangerous.

Socialism leads to economic failure as Afrca shows. Free trade leads to wealth as the East Asian Tygers show.

Hardline socialism - maybe. Modern socialism - not at the very least.

Perhaps when you refer to socialism as something defining rotten economy, you probably mean communism (although I am sure that you understand the differences as we have discussed this before). A socialist movement of the modern times is of views more moderate than the older socialists, when world trade was not as developed as now. If you read the programme of any leading socialist party, take the Bulgarian Socialist Party, which won the parliamentary elections in Bulgaria only two weeks ago, you would see that our views on trade and economy are not by any means useless and detrimental to the welfare of the country.

It is necessary to establish that a socialist government may not be as agile as a capitalist one, but this only stretches as far as the economic discussions go. A socialist government stretches beyond the average salary, the low rate mortgages and good loans. It cares for the community, it cares for preserving traditions and patriarchical values in multi-religious and cultural societies.

Of course i do, though i'm not sure if you do.

Elaborate. Socialists support high taxes. Agreed? These lead to economic problems because it deters investments and so competition.

The United States would like to enquire as to whether Bulgaria is still intent on joining the European Union.

The position of Bulgaria has always been clear. Bulgaria must and will join the modern Europe, of which it has been part ever since the concept of Europe was put in use.

I may also point out that the American ambassador in Bulgaria, Mr. James Pardew is kindly asked to employ a more diplomatic language and only to go as far as his duties are concerned. Comments such as
We are watching you.
ina warning manner when referring to Bulgaria's progress in covering the articles of the EU convention are not acceptable for a politician, if he may be called so, in his position.

On a different note, Bulgaria has always pledged its support to NATO and the US in all latest wars against terror and oppression - airfields and soldiers were at your service both in Yougoslavia and now in Iraq.

Saudi Arabia thinks that the socialist EU and socialist Bulgaria are perfectly suited for each other, indeed tailor-made!

The Republic of Venezuela would like to clarify that we are a democratic socialist Front who wish to cooperate with other progressive countries and organisations for the good of the people. We do not wish to see economic destruction, but we do wish to see the wealth of coutries being used to benefit the people who live there. We support Bulgaria in its wish to join the EU and hope it can be a nother voice inside Europe for a democratic and Social European Union.

Can BOlivia join? It's on the way to democracy and is fiercely resisting privatisation!
