I think it’s important to understand that Marxist-Leninists should be supporting the people of both countries, rather than picking one of two capitalist states to back. I understand that Russia has its excuses for doing this, and the Ukraine government has its excuses for what it has done, but it’s important to remember that they are both capitalist countries in the age of imperialism; what they are really after is power. Please feel free to correct me if you believe I got anything wrong.
I think it is important to support capitalist iraq to gain its own independence and strength, and then support the people to have a revolution. Do not support the people to have a revolution while iraq is still at war with the west, that will only weaken it further.
