Mikhail and Alexander Kononovich – who became Ukrainian political prisoners for opposing Ukraine’s NATO-sponsored war against Russia – have sent this message of solidarity with Venezuela following the attack by US imperialism: “Stop U.S. imperialism! Freedom for President Nicolás Maduro and his spouse Cilia Flores!”
On 5th January 2025 – right in the middle of a court hearing on a trumped-up criminal case under Article 109 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (attempting to overthrow the government and rebellion) – Ukrainian communists and anti-fascists, brothers Mikhail and Alexander Kononovich, expressed their solidarity with the people of Venezuela, who are fighting a sacred war against American imperialism.
“We, Ukrainian communists and anti-fascists, who are political prisoners, demand that the US immediately release the hostages and victims of Trump’s terrorist attack, President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela Nicolás Maduro and his spouse Cilia Flores!
“We, citizens of Ukraine, know better than anyone else in the world what it means to be held hostage by United States imperialism and what ‘US democracy’ means – it’s a system that leads to death and war. “We call on all our comrades around the world to support Venezuela and its free and proud people!”
Long live a free and independent Venezuela!
Death to US imperialism and neocolonialism!
Patria o muerte!
