A historic demonstration took place in Caracas on February 8. The march represented the advances and contradictions of the revolution. It marked the development on a higher plane of the revolutionary struggle of the working class, but also the weaknesses of the movement. Above all, the march showed that the UNT can be united, as well as what must be done if the revolution is to be taken to the end.
The Frederick Engels Foundation is intervening at the Havana Book Fair for the third consecutive year. Again, the works of Trotsky are proving to be the main attraction, together with other Marxist works. So far two successful book presentations have been held by the Foundation.
Last week, on 8 February, thousands of workers marched in Caracas to call for the nationalisation of Sanitarios Maracay, CANTV, Sidor and other companies. The comrades of the Corriente Marxista Revolucionaria have written a report (in Spanish) which we will have in English soon. We have compiled a picture gallery of the demonstration here.
