DEM VOLKE DIENEN

Of the announcements made by the former Minister of Health, Jens Spahn, about major changes for the care sector, which were to be created with the Care Reform 2022, the only essential part that actually remains is the standard wage agreement.

During the week, Yankee President Joe Biden embarked on his first so-called "Middle East trip". He also visited Palestine, or rather the reactionary Mahmoud Abbas, who warmly received the US president - who proudly called himself a Zionist the day before. Abbas and his clique responded with thunderous applause to Biden's promises that the US would once again provide more development aid to Palestinians. But the Palestinian masses on the streets of Al Quds, the West Bank and Gaza made it clear that the top man of Yankee imperialism has no place in their country.

The current economic crisis is getting worse and worse and thus the situation of the working masses in this country is getting increasingly worse. The seriousness of the crisis, which is far from reaching its peak, can be well illustrated by the current figures of the inflation rate. Last month, inflation was 7.6%, only slightly below the previous month's high of 7.9%, the highest rate in almost 50 years. This high inflation rate ensures that the poorest sections of the proletariat in this country now face the real problem of not being able to finance their lives. The majority of the masses are not yet facing the threat to their existence, but they still have to make cutbacks and major adjustments in order to be able to get through the crisis. The demand and the struggle of the working class for a wage increase that will cushion the burden of the crisis is therefore completely justified. Especially at the present moment.

We share a video report on the international day of action:

Norway

On 9th of July on the anti-imperialists around Norway carried out actions in solidarity with the Indian People’s War.

Oslo: a demonstration took place in front of the Indian embassy in Oslo. Speeches were held and powerful slogans were chanted like ”Up the international solidarity!”, ”Long live the struggle for new democracy – we will see Saibaba free!”, ”Struggle against the crisis and repression – emancipation demands revolution!”.

On 12 June 2022, Welthungerhilfe published its report on the year 2021. What can be read in it shows the catastrophic situation in which the world finds itself under the yoke of imperialism. Right in the introductory text to the report it states:
"Welthungerhilfe warns that the number of hungry people continues to rise, while at the same time the prices of food and transport are skyrocketing. As a result, hunger crises around the world continue to grow. According to recent UN reports, up to 828 million people are chronically malnourished."
828 million people going hungry in the world means that more than one in ten of the world's approximately 7.9 billion people do not have enough to eat.

For weeks now, the protests and struggles of the people of Sri Lanka against the hawkish and corrupt government have continued. Last Saturday, 9 July, they reached their climax. In gigantic battles in the capital Colombo, the popular masses overran the helpless military, stormed the government palace and drove President Gotabaya Rajapaksa to flight. Both he and the prime minister declared their resignations the same day - so the government is in Sri Lanka through the people's magnificent efforts.

On July 9, on the occasion of the Day of Action for the People's War in India, a rally was held in front of the Indian Consulate General in Frankfurt. "Rebellion Ruhr" had called for this rally and some other internationalist forces had also mobilized for this occasion.
