Voices of Defiance: The Socialists Against War Manifesto and the Rising Russian Anti-War Movement How Early Dissent in 2022 Shaped a Growing Resistance to Putin’s War in Ukraine

All the versions of this article: [English] [français]

Thursday 17 March 2022, by Collective / Multiple signers, Socialists Against War

  
  • Ukraine (eng)

Published in March 2022, the “Socialists Against War” manifesto was a pivotal document that condemned Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, framing it as a war of conquest driven by a corrupt elite. The manifesto rejected Kremlin propaganda, warned of domestic repression, and called on Russians to oppose the war as a patriotic duty. It laid the foundation for a broader anti-war movement, appealing to left-wing, democratic ideals.

This declaration was one of many expressions of resistance. Feminist Anti-War Resistance (FAR) emerged, organizing protests and mutual aid. Acts of sabotage targeted railways and military recruitment offices, often at great personal risk. Many young men who refused to fight sought safety in self-exile, many activists have joined them, continuing their activism abroad.

The manifesto remains a vital testament to courage and hope in dark times.

The Putin regime was based on the promises of peace and stability. But it has brought the country to war and economic catastrophe.

Like any other war in history, the current one divides everyone into two parties: pros and cons. Kremlin propaganda is trying to convince us that the whole nation has rallied around power. And miserable ancestors, pro-Western liberals and mercenaries of the external enemy are fighting for peace. It’s a completely untenable lie. This time the Kremlin elders were in the minority. Most Russians do not want fratricidal war, even among those who still trust the Russian authorities. They close their eyes so as not to see the world drawn by propagandists fall apart. They still hope that what is happening is not a war, especially not aggressive, but a “special operation” designed to “liberate” the Ukrainian people. Terrible footage of brutal bombing and shelling of cities will soon destroy these myths. And then even Putin’s most loyal voters will say: we did not give you consent to this unjust war!

But already now, tens of millions of people across the country are horrified and disgusted by what Putin’s administration is doing. These are people of different beliefs. Most of them are not liberals at all, as propagandists claim. Among them there are a lot of left-wing, socialist or communist people. And of course, these people – the majority of our people – are sincere patriots of our Motherland.

We are lied that the opponents of this war are hypocrites. That they are not against war, but only in support of the West. It’s a lie. We have never been supporters of the United States and its imperialist policy. When Ukrainian troops shelled Donetsk and Lugansk, we were not silent. Let’s not remain silent even now that Kharkiv, Kiev and Odessa are bombed on the orders of Putin and his camarilla.

There are many reasons to fight against war. For us, supporters of social justice, equality and freedom, several of them are especially important.

  • It’s an unfair, war of conquest. There was no and there is no such threat to the Russian state for which it was necessary to send our soldiers to kill and die. Today they don’t “release anyone.” They don’t help any people’s movement. It’s just that the regular army is smashing peaceful Ukrainian cities by order of a handful of billionaires who dream of maintaining their power over Russia forever.
  • This war leads to innumerable disasters for our peoples. Both Ukrainians and Russians pay dearly for it with their blood. But even far away in the rear, poverty, inflation, unemployment will affect everyone. The bills will be paid not by oligarchs and officials, but by poor teachers, workers, pensioners and the unemployed. Many of us will have nothing to feed the children.
  • This war will turn Ukraine into ruins and Russia into one big prison. Opposition media are already closed. People are thrown behind bars for leaflets, harmless pickets, even for posts on social networks. Soon the Russians will have only one choice: between prison and the military registration and enlistment office. The war brings with it a dictatorship that living generations have not yet seen.
  • This war significantly increases all risks and threats to our country. Even those Ukrainians who sympathized with Russia a week ago now enroll in the militia to fight our troops. With his aggression, Putin nullified all the crimes of Ukrainian nationalists, all the intrigues of American and NATO hawks. Putin gave them such arguments that new missiles and military bases would almost certainly appear along the perimeter of our borders.
  • Finally, the struggle for peace is a patriotic duty of every Russian. Not only because we are the keepers of the memory of the most terrible war in history. But also because this war threatens the integrity and very existence of Russia.

Putin is trying to tightly link his own destiny with the fate of our country. If he succeeds, his inevitable defeat will be the defeat of the whole nation. And then the fate of post-war Germany can really wait for us: occupation, territorial partition, cult of collective guilt.

There is only one way to prevent these disasters. The war must be stopped by ourselves – men and women of Russia. This country belongs to us, not a handful of mad old people with palaces and yachts. It’s time to get it back. Our enemies are not in Kiev and Odessa, but in Moscow. It’s time to kick them out of there. War is not Russia. War is Putin and his regime. Therefore, we, the Russian Socialists and Communists, are against this criminal war. We want to stop her to save Russia.

No intervention!

No dictatorship!

No poverty!

Манифест коалиции «Социалисты против войны»

March 03, 2022

Эта власть держалась на обещаниях мира и стабильности, а в итоге привела страну к войне и экономической катастрофе.

Как и любая другая война в истории, нынешняя делит всех на две партии: за и против. Кремлевская пропаганда пытается убедить нас, что вся нация сплотилась вокруг власти. А за мир борются жалкие отщепенцы, прозападные либералы и наемники внешнего врага. Это полностью несостоятельная ложь. На этот раз кремлевские старцы оказались в меньшинстве. Братоубийственной войны не хочет большинство россиян, даже среди тех, кто все еще доверяет российской власти. Они изо всех сил закрывают глаза, чтобы не видеть, как разваливается мир, нарисованный пропагандистами. Они еще надеются, что происходящее не война, тем более не агрессивная, а «специальная операция», призванная «освободить» украинский народ. Страшные кадры жестоких бомбежек и обстрелов городов скоро уничтожат эти мифы. И тогда даже самые верные избиратели Путина скажут: мы не давали вам согласия на эту несправедливую войну!

Но уже сейчас по всей стране десятки миллионов людей испытывают ужас и отвращение от того, что делает путинская администрация. Это люди разных убеждений. Большинство из них вовсе никакие не либералы, как утверждают пропагандисты. Среди них очень много людей левых, социалистических или коммунистических взглядов. И разумеется, эти люди – большинство нашего народа – искренние патриоты нашей Родины.

Нам врут, что противники этой войны – лицемеры. Что они выступают не против войны, а лишь в поддержку Запада. Это – ложь. Мы никогда не были сторонниками США и их империалистической политики. Когда украинские войска обстреливали Донецк и Луганск, мы – не молчали. Не будем молчать и сейчас, когда Харьков, Киев и Одессу бомбят по приказу Путина и его камарильи.

Существует очень много причин бороться против войны. Для нас, сторонников социальной справедливости, равенства и свободы, несколько из них особенно важны.

  • Это несправедливая, захватническая война. Не существовало и не существует такой угрозы российскому государству, ради которой нужно было отправлять наших солдат убивать и умирать. Сегодня они никого не «освобождают». Не помогают никакому народному движению. Просто регулярная армия разносит в щепки мирные украинские города по приказу горстки миллиардеров, мечтающих сохранить свою власть над Россией навеки.
  • Эта война ведет к неисчислимым бедствиям для наших народов. И украинцы, и русские дорого платят за нее своей кровью. Но даже далеко в тылу нищета, инфляция, безработица коснется каждого. Платить по счетам будут не олигархи и чиновники, а нищие учителя, рабочие, пенсионеры и безработные. Многим из нас будет нечем кормить детей.
  • Эта война превратит Украину в руины, а Россию в одну большую тюрьму. Оппозиционные СМИ уже закрыты. За листовки, безобидные пикеты, даже за посты в социальных сетях людей бросают за решетку. Скоро у россиян останется только один выбор: между тюрьмой и военкоматом. Война несет с собой такую диктатуру, которой живущие поколения еще не видели.
  • Эта война в разы увеличивает все риски и угрозы для нашей страны. Даже те украинцы, которые еще неделю назад симпатизировали России, теперь записываются в ополчение, чтобы сражаться с нашими войсками. Своей агрессией Путин обнулил все преступления украинских националистов, все интриги американских и натовских ястребов. Путин дал им в руки такие аргументы, что по периметру наших границ почти наверняка появятся новые ракеты и военные базы.
  • Наконец, борьба за мир – это патриотический долг каждого россиянина. Не только потому, что мы – хранители памяти о самой страшной войне в истории. Но и потому, что эта война угрожает целостности и самому существованию России.

Путин пытается намертво связать свою собственную судьбу с судьбой нашей страны. Если ему это удастся, то его неизбежное поражение станет поражением всей нации. И тогда нас действительно может ждать судьба послевоенной Германии: оккупация, территориальный раздел, культ коллективной вины.

Есть только один способ предотвратить эти катастрофы. Войну должны прекратить мы сами – мужчины и женщины России. Эта страна принадлежит нам, а не горстке обезумевших стариков с дворцами и яхтами. Пора вернуть ее себе. Наши враги не в Киеве и Одессе, а в Москве. Пора выгнать их оттуда. Война – это не Россия. Война – это Путин и его режим. Поэтому мы, российские социалисты и коммунисты против этой преступной войны. Мы хотим остановить ее, чтобы спасти Россию.

Нет интервенции!

Нет диктатуре!

Нет нищете!
