No demarcation between America and American imperialism, both same: VS

Kozhkode: Before the inimitable V.S.Achuthanandan, interpretation between the lines by some party leaders of his CPM would not gel well. For he has spoken out in unmistakable terms that America and American imperialism cannot be seen with a different lens.

He made it clear to mediapersons here on Friday that both are the same. Some leaders had explained that the party had no problem with America and its people. The problem was with regard to the policies.

Such an explanation had come in the wake of WikiLeaks information that the CPM leaders including party secretary Pinarayi Vijayan,others like Dr Thomas Isaac, M.A.Baby and V.S.Achuthanandan himself had interaction with counselors of the US administration. The leaders had sought American investment in Kerala for its development.

Now Achuthanandan has made it clear that there can be no demarcation between the US and US imperialism. The US means its imperialism. Its imperialism has isolated itself before the people, he said.

US imperialism had tried to kill revolutionary Fidel Castro 117 times, he alleged.
