Revolusjon! | Norway | May 20, 2026 | Translated for The Red Phoenix—

A number of parties and movements from North Africa and the Levant are calling for solidarity with the Democratic Way party in Morocco.

The Moroccan fraternal party Democratic Way has recently been subjected to repressive measures directed against its activities and members, including summoning the party’s General Secretary, Comrade Jamal Baraja, along with other activists, to appear before the National Police of order.

There is no doubt that this persecution stems from the party’s firm stance on the various issues affecting the Moroccan people and its tireless struggle against the oppressive and authoritarian Makhzen regime. It is also linked to the party’s firm opposition to normalizing relations with Israel, a policy that the regime pursues against the will and views of the Moroccan people, as the people unequivocally support the Palestinian cause.

Furthermore, this persecution is aimed at disrupting the efforts of the party’s activists as they prepare for their sixth national congress at the end of July. This, too, is consistent with the authorities’ ongoing practice of suppressing freedoms and undermining the right to independent organization.

The undersigned parties and organizations affirm their unconditional solidarity with the Democratic Way party, its youth organization, and the Moroccan people, and declare:

–We strongly condemn this targeted persecution as an ingrained practice of the Makhzen regime and consider it evidence of the regime’s confusion and fear in the face of growing anger and bitterness against policies of dependency, authoritarianism and corruption at all levels.

–We reaffirm our principled support for the revolutionary and progressive forces in Morocco in their struggle for freedom, dignity, democracy, and justice.

–We call on all forces for freedom and progress in the region and around the world to express their solidarity and organize all forms of support for the fraternal party Democratic Way of Morocco, in defense of its inalienable right to free and independent political activity.
