May God’s mercy and forgiveness be upon the martyrs of the Sudanese revolution, speedy recovery for the injured, freedom for the detainees inside the dark cells and the safe return of the missing.
In continuation of our steadfast people’s struggles against the coup council and its militias, which do nothing but killing and shedding the blood of the Sudanese people in cold blood, the peaceful processions of the ninth of June took place in various areas of Khartoum State and other neighborhoods in the rest of the states of our beloved homeland. These processions were subjected to the most severe types of excessive repression with live bullets, tear gas and stun grenades directed directly at the bodies of the peaceful revolutionaries.
Our proud people:
In spite of the murderers’ claim that the state of emergency had been lifted, their forces perpetrated these heinous crimes, which resulted in the injury of more than eight peaceful revolutionaries by live ammunition in the city of Khartoum alone. In addition, one of the revolutionaries in the city of Madani sustained a direct hit from a live bullet to the chest, as well as other injuries with conditions ranging from stable to unstable.
Our free people:
We, the East Khartoum Neighborhoods Resistance Committees Coordination, affirm that these violations will not deter us or stop our peaceful struggles; rather, they will strengthen our resolve to bring down and hold accountable these militias that feed on the blood of our comrades in the streets of the revolution.

‘When Moscow sneezes, Kyiv spikes a fever’ – A popular saying.
“Decree of Kyiv Mayor Volodymyr Klitschko to cancel the decision of Prince of Kyiv Yurii Dolgorukyi on the foundation of Moscow in 1147” (AE UA, 10.06.2022)
“In accordance with Articles 319 and 327 of the Ukrainian Civil Code […] repeals the decree of the Grand Duke of Kyiv, founding Moscow issued in 1147, as “a historical misunderstanding”
It has been just a day or so ago since the Russian Duma wanted to revoke their decree of independence of Lithuania. The Ukrainian capital has retorted to the Russian provocation with their own decree. As it states that it was a historical misunderstanding to found the Russian capital in 1147. Kyiv was founded in 482 and we can see the years that had gone since then.
The decree of Kyiv Mayor Klistchko will have no effect or make a standing. Nevertheless, it proves the historical ties and how things were in order. When President Putin wants to speak of colonies and areas of which are bound to not make sovereign decisions. Maybe, he should look into the factors of his “empire” and the creation of the Russian Federation, as it today. Not just cherry-pick the ones to fit his narrative or stories. Because, there could easily be grievances from neighbours back in time. If he wants to play the game of historical connections and who has the rights of a certain area. That could go to Sweden, Finland, Poland, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania or the Kyivian Rus (862-1242), which was the latter who decreed the foundation of Moscow.
That’s why in the early beginnings of the war against Ukraine. When Putin claimed Kyiv didn’t have a nationhood or such. The richness of history and such goes deep. Only a fool and a deluded person would deny that. This is why the ones his invading with his “historical rights” too was initially behind the existence of the city of which he resides and holds power in. Kyiv decreed it and the rest is history. The Duma and Kremlin should reconsider their stances. The rest of Eastern Europe and other historical factors could come into play. Which isn’t only fitting the ones Russian Empire, but fits their historial perspective too. Therefore, when you start this game… out will play too.
Right now it is was an answer of the Kyiv City Council. This decree will not change things or make a direct difference. Though it shows there are historical ties, but maybe not in the manner of which fits the narratives of Putin. This instead shows that the “colony” wasn’t always that or the ones under control of Moscow. Could at one point decide its faith. Meaning that the imperial mindset of Putin is screwed, because the same argument can be used against him and his territories. Most likely not something he wants or has sought after.
That’s why the revelation of this decree only shows what sort of political games that can be played. It isn’t only the Duma or Kremlin who can have a say or show historical documents of origin stories. This is what the Kyiv City Council did by revoking the founding decree of Moscow. By doing so they “cancelled” Moscow. Though we know there is more to this and will not make a difference.
Just effectively trolling and showing the Russians that they can only do the “dance” if they have a chance. Peace.



Honorable Revolutionaries:
Since the start of the coup, the brutal coup authority has used the dictionary definition of destructive totalitarian regimes, employing murder and bloody repression and throwing civilians from symbols of the revolutionary forces and field leaders from the resistance committees into the depths of prisons and detention centers, in a pitiful attempt to curtail the movement of the rebellious masses across the country. This totalitarian approach, however, backfired and afflicted the putschists, their political and social incubator, and the remnants of the former regime. The revolutionary consciousness that surrounded the masses of our people during their peaceful and victorious movement from the beginning of the glorious December revolution until today has produced thousands of leaders who are highly skilled in the organizing of peaceful resistance action and mastered of the art of subjugating dictatorial regimes; the streets are boiling like a cauldron under the feet of tyrants every day, despite the overcrowding of prisons and detention centers.
Our heroic steadfast people:
Freedom is a right, not a privilege. During today’s march, more than 25 young men and women of the resistance committees were arrested in front of the People’s Palace. We hold the coup authority fully responsible for the safety of detainees, and we reaffirm our principled rejection of all forms of harassments, arrests, and confiscation of freedoms.
May the whips of our usual peacefulness inflame the backs of tyrants and turn their fragile authority’s dreams of survival into a never-ending nightmare until its complete overthrow and the establishment of a full civil authority that carries the torch of the process of civil democratic transformation and the state of freedom, peace, and justice.

Today, the Prosperity Party, the ruling party and the majority in Ethiopia published a piece or an article called: “The historical mission of prosperity is to plant and strengthen democracy/ the truth of a miracle” which I will discuss the parts that I see as vital, because it shows the sentiment of the ones in-charge and in-power at this very moment.
This sort of piece shoulder be published without questions or looked into. Since, it shows their heart and what they assess as important. That’s why there is a few pieces and wordings, which is very interesting to say the least.
“One of the biggest causes of the collapse of the constitution and political breakdowns in Ethiopia is the lack of democracy and the rule of law” (Prosperity Party, 10.06.2022).
The Prosperity Party’s biggest pet-pee is the “rule of law” and “law enforcement”. That is the key to most of their activities. They are using law enforcement to rule and control the society. This has been done steadily since it’s inception and Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed Ali time in office. That has been evident and clear. The ones that has followed the actions and orders from the government. Can see how the army and police has oppressed the public under the name of “rule of law”. Therefore, the Prosperity Party hasn’t launched a new era in concern of this. To the contrary they are repeating history and creating the “Medemer Terror” a new edition of the “Red Terror”. It’s all done in the name of Prosperity and “unity”, which we be discussed further on.
“Prosperity was born out of the struggle of the people and the pressure of the force that has been struggling to bring change in EPRDF. Prosperity’s historical mission is to plant and consolidate democracy. Prosperity is a party that created a chance for a successful generation transition in Ethiopian politics” (Prosperity Party, 10.06.2022).
What is striking here is how the Prosperity Party claims its “consolidating democracy” after the period of EPRDF. Alas, what the PP has done is to consolidate power within the ranks and at all levels of government, which means that the PP has majority and control. That’s because the election and how it has operated. This means that it took control and ensured that it would “win” a landslide. It wasn’t an election, but a proper selection. This because, the state blocked all major opposition, as they were either barred, in prison or not allowed to enter. Therefore, this transition from EPRDF to PP was consolidating power and not directly making the Republic more democratic. That’s a vast difference and this transition has been bloody and caused more internal conflict. It has not created peace and it’s been ordered by the ones in power. Therefore, the PP cannot just runaway from the responsibility for its actions and creating more conflict, not less…
“By believing that there are direct survival risks in our country, by taking a firm stand that citizens’ overall needs can be achieved through democracy and the rule of law, we can escape the cycle of conflicts that have caused us human interest and structural based oppression. Also, stop the rebellion of citizens caused by democracy and the lack of rule of law” (Prosperity Party, 10.06.2022).
The Party here is really spelling it out, but also showing it’s directly working against itself. Because, here it’s not making direct sense. Why do I say that? Well, they speak up against conflicts and “structural based oppression”, which has been the hallmark of this government. What is further showing their based ideals.
The PP wants to create democracy, but doesn’t accept rebellion. Because, dissent and opposition is natural in any democracy. Maybe not by direct force or by armed rebellion, but by words and manifestos. Which haven’t been respected or gotten an option in the Republic under the PP. The PP has gone after anyone and therefore, the “rule of law” is a banner it uses to stifle the opposition. That’s not how you build democracy, but instead take a hold of power by force.
The piece ends with: “When we say that we will plant and strengthen democracy, the leader of democracy starts by spreading legal framework and mediators. Democracy doesn’t just come by wish. Democracy and rule of law can’t be differentiated. Therefore, rule of law is essential to plant democracy. And rule of law is something in democracy” (Prosperity Party, 10.06.2022).
At this point in time… the only thing the PP is planting is more bloodshed and more oppression. It is far from democratic by not only nature, but by the actions it has taken. There is nothing in that would suggest any sort of democratic or building of institutions, which would reflect the true will of anyone else, then the ones that was predisposed by the central leadership at large. Therefore, the rule of law is just a shield now to mask the true intentions. The vision of democracy and such is just beautiful words, which is meaningless, when at any given time there is political prisoners, prisoners of conscious and journalists who reports who are on trial over their reporting. We can easily say that the PP isn’t delivering anything of this.
The PP isn’t planting democracy. It is planting full consolidation of power and a one-man party, as the PM is the overlord and warlord who directs everything. That is the reality here and he cannot forge a narrative now. They are not reforming or changing, no they are masking and making insignificant changes to ensure the PM gets his will done. Peace.
