Movimiento Revolucionario Túpac Amaru
Túpac Amaru Revolutionary Movement (MRTA)
The International Represenation of the MRTA reports the following
to the international and national public:
Militants from other Latin American revolutionary movements
will join the MRTA if Fujimori does not free the political
prisoners.
Several revolutionary groups, which we will not specify for
security reasons, have expressed their intention of joining the
political-military struggle of the MRTA in the Peruvian jungle if
Fujimori's government does not agree to free the political
prisoners imprisoned in Peru's jail-tombs.
The inhumane conditions of these prisoners as well as the
sympathies for the MRTA that have been awakened in revolutionary
groups throughout Latin America have caused the formation of a
movement called the "International Combat Block" which includes
members of several nationalities and which will co-ordinate
revolutionary strategies from "the Rio Grande to Patagonia".
Paradoxically, the intransigent position of dictator Alberto
Fujimori is creating a movement of groups joining the MRTA that
will increase the MRTA's political and military strength and will
increase its coordination with other revolutionary groups on the
rest of the continent and throughout the world.
The MRTA has expressed its willingness to continue
struggling for peace with social justice, the only peace that
lasts, but if this peaceful path is closed one more time, we have
decided to continue the struggle by other means, and we are
greatful for the international solidarity of all of the people in
the world that have seen in our struggle the revalidation of
their own struggles, the hope of building a better world without
hunger, without unemployment, without neoliberalism.
Neither Surrender Nor Defeat ... The Struggle Continues!
