Peace-Loving Working Class Rejects War Hysteria: CPP Calls for Unity and Resolution

The escalating hostilities between India and Pakistan deliberately intensified to evoke war hysteria and precipitate a potential military confrontation are profoundly detrimental to the interests of the peace-seeking masses in both nations. The Communist Party of Pakistan registers its deep apprehension regarding this deteriorating situation. In a communiqué issued by the Central Committee, the Party unequivocally condemns the recent act of terrorism in Pahalgam, in which innocent tourists were brutally slain. The statement asserts that stoking bellicose sentiments and transforming tensions into armed conflict would be catastrophic for both states. War begets nothing but ruin. For Pakistan, already ensnared in a debt-ravaged economy and subsisting on loans from the IMF and other predatory financial institutions, the consequences would be even more devastating.

The Communist Party of Pakistan earnestly urges the leadership of both nuclear-armed states to immediately embark upon diplomatic engagement aimed at the peaceful resolution of the prevailing crisis. The Party further advocates for robust and enduring collaboration between the two countries to eliminate terrorism comprehensively and permanently. The statement highlights that a significant majority of the population in both countries subsists below the poverty threshold—deprived of housing, employment, healthcare, and education. In such bleak conditions, diverting billions of dollars toward armaments under the pretext of war or martial paranoia is a gross misallocation of resources and an act of egregious negligence. While the war economy may enrich vested interests particularly those profiting from the arms trade it will irreparably exacerbate the hardships faced by the toiling majorities on both sides.

War serves no nation’s genuine interests. It is therefore imperative that both governments pursue an immediate and durable diplomatic solution and reallocate their national resources toward addressing the fundamental needs of the millions who remain deprived of dignified livelihoods, education, and medical care.

The peace-loving working class of India and Pakistan must not be cannon fodder for the imperialist warmongers and bourgeois rulers. Down with chauvinism and war hysteria long live proletarian internationalism and the struggle for peace!
