International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination
21.03.2019
The 21st of March is marked by the United Nations as the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. As the General Assembly of the United Nations, correctly underlines “any doctrine of racial superiority is scientifically false, morally condemnable, socially unjust and dangerous and must be rejected, together with theories that attempt to determine the existence of separate human races.”
For WFDY, the phenomenon of racial discrimination is nothing more than another extension of the many effects of imperialism in today’s societies. Nowadays, as it is also recognized by a document of the UN, this phenomenon is expressed with “various racist extremist movements based on ideologies that seek to promote populist, nationalist, right-wing agendas and racial superiority, fuelling racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance”
One of the most dangerous and unhuman extents of this phenomenon is the revival of Nazism through the many fascist and neonazist organisations around the world. WFDY, as a true child of the victory of the peoples against fascism, shall rise, bring together all the progressive youth of the world and fight against this monstrosity with unity, solidarity and internationalism.
We state ready and militant!
Defenders of peace and friendship!

The World Federation of Democratic Youth condemns the brutal attacks on Sri Lankan people causing deaths to the hundreds of innocent people and making several hundreds of people injured. We initially express our condolences to the families of the deceased and wish fast recovery to the injured.
We express our solidarity towards Sri Lankan people and we wish strength and courage to face the situation and recover from the trauma together as one. We vehemently condemn all racial and religious extremism which constantly bring bloodshed to the world. We request from progressive youth and students in Sri Lanka to face this situation wisely and to propagate peace within people. We simultaneously, request all the people in Sri Lanka not to divide into ethnic differences but to unite as one nation in the process of recovering from this trauma.
Long live peace!
World Environment Day
05.06.2019
The 5th of June is designated as the World Environment Day after a decision of the United Nations.
The destruction of the environment is an inevitable outcome of the imperialist structure of the world. The imperialist circles, who are primarily concerned about securing their own economic profits without worrying about the peoples, are sacrificing the environment and the future of the planet.
It is a fact that awareness about the pollution of the environment is raised the last years. We welcome the massive demonstrations that raise demands against the environmental exploitation and we reaffirm that the struggle for the protection of the environment in favour of the people, cannot be separated from the struggle against imperialism and its destructive nature.
Personal responsibility is a factor in this matter as well but we call the youth to be cautious about this side of the discussions around environment. The ruling classes of the world, imperialism itself, puts a lot of effort to convince the peoples that the destruction of the environment is something that passes through each individual separately. In this way they attempt to denounce their own responsibility and to hide the catastrophic consequences of the imperialist way of production.
WFDY believes that the only way to put an end to the exploitation and the pollution of the environment is the overthrow of imperialism and the final victory of the peoples. In that direction we will keep fighting the root cause of wars and the destruction of the environment, for the construction of the new superior society of peace and social justice.
