    Russian Communists pledge to restore former Soviet Union
    13:52 | 20/ 01/ 2007



    MOSCOW, January 20 (RIA Novosti) - Russian Communists urged Saturday
    the Communist parties of ex-Soviet states to join their efforts to
    restore the former Soviet Union.

    Communist leaders from Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Armenia and other
    ex-Soviet republics gathered Saturday in the Russian capital to
    discuss the strengthening of future cooperation and the development
    of a common strategy to re-unite the former members of the
    now-defunct Soviet Union.

    "We believe that the restoration of a broken union [between ex-Soviet
    republics] is our key goal, and we will continue our efforts to
    accomplish this [the restoration] task," Russian Communist Party
    leader Gennady Zyuganov said during a plenary meeting of the Council
    of the Union of Communist Parties of ex-Soviet states.

    The participants of the meeting issued a statement calling upon all
    parties on the territory of the former Soviet Union that adhere to
    Communist ideology to join the fight for the "socialist development
    of brotherly nations and their unification into a Union State."

    "Without a union between Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and other brotherly
    republics that used to be members of the Soviet Union, we do not have
    a future," Zyuganov said.
