Heads of Czech Slavia meet Bernie Sanders
-
Observing the 2020 elections in UNSR it became obvious to the heads of Czech communist party that an dangerous deviation has developed in Icholasen. AEN led by comrade Baskin, was at least according to president Sova and prime minister Černá endangering the revolution. And for that reason it was decided that leader of TANKIES, comrade Sanders should be invited to Prague, to show voters in UNSR how well respected he is.
President Sova called minister Sanders and officially invited him to the Prague Castle.

Sanders with Slavomíra Černá and Vratislav Sova
After having toured the Prague Castle and seen its marvellous Czech beauty, Sanders met with high-ups in the KSČS and discussed foreign policy, election strategy and other issues facing leftism in the European Union. He also made a short speech which follows now.
'Ahoj soudruzi! Jak se máte? I'd like to thank Vojtěch Filip and Kateřina Konečná for inviting me here today to Prague to talk with you all. It is a great pleasure to visit this country. Comrades, we face a threat to our revolution in Icholasen, and, as a result, a threat to the world revolution which one day will come if we are strong. Listen folks, it is crucial that the TANKIES win this election. We need to run industry on the national level to harmonise it, exploit natural resources to benefit the proletariat, phase out private enterprise, stop the sale of drugs, limit as much as possible the power of religion, and capital.
Today, Inquistah attacked both of our nations verbally. They assume just because we are socialist, there must be a large constituency of workahs just aching to leave. This just isn't true. They are unaware of the bounty of socialism. Maybe if Mikaela Klingenburg wasn't so dumb and bourgeois she would know that.
Firoux is a also major enemy of the proletariat. He wants there to be neoliberal free movement of workahs. This undercuts wages, and lines the pockets of the richest. That's what these EPA neoliberals want, they want the bourgeoisie to be better off under the guise of freedoms such as 'free markets' 'free movement of labour' and 'free movement of goods'. Who is this freedom for? It is freedom for the bourgeoisie, not the proletariat. This is a wide spread example of capitalist exploitation because the bourgeoisie employs foreign workers at an undercut price which means they are being exploited and wages owed to them are not being paid, and the native workers lose their jobs.
Comrades, we must act to stop wage theft, to stop neoliberalism, to stop Mikaela Klingenburg and her frequent fashion disahstahs, and to stop the AÉN. Thank you, děkuju.
I am ready for some questions.'

"Well comrade Sanders I feel like you described the situation in European Union perfectly. We here fully understand that TANKIES are the candidates of the people of Icholasen and we hope that the people of Icholasen understand that too. I, perhaps, would not be so optimistic about Communist Refugee Program in Inquista failing, we have a reason to believe that it could cause a small brain drain here in our democratic republic, and if other countries would introduce similar programs we would probably have to do something about it otherwise it could badly damage our economy. And Kligenberg calls this humanism. If I can give a bit of advise to you, we here have a law that if you successfully finished studing in our medical school and you have Czech citizenship you have to work in this country for at least 4 years, perhaps similiar law could also be proposed and passed in UNSR and it can give you another lead in the elections over AEN." president Sova said to Sanders, smiling.
"Comrade Sanders, I am positive that TANKIES will win the elections, for you are a people of honor. You yourself even got kidnapped when fighting for the revolution, what can Baskin say? But even the existence of AEN opportunists within the party casts a bad light on your honest work, what is your plan to deal with such opportunists elements inside of the party?" Černá asked.
"And do you know what your candidate Harriet LeRauk meant when saying, I quote " I am against any and all foreign investment in Icholasen."? I certainly hope that she meant only companies from capitalist countries, and not our Czech state-owned companies. And I have one more question, could you please describe your foreign policy more to us?" Černá finished and also smiled at minister Sanders. -
'Yes, humanism indeed.' Said Sanders. He coughed once and readjusted his position at the podium. 'Firstly, yes, the AÉN are dangerous, but we have to fight them in legitimate ways. I do believe they are still communists, they just have a different, wrong, way of achieving true communism. We will fight them within legitimate means.
'That law about medical students would be good, and I will be happy to co-opt that and urge that law is adopted. It is profoundly sensible. We are also moving to increase the pay of our public servants.
'Mrs. Baskin has had a role in the revolution, but I will admit it was small. I do believe that I have much more experience than Mrs. Baskin, including in the revolution.
'Ms. LeRauk was mistranslated, I believe. She was talking about capitalistic investment, that is merely for profit and not for solidarity among the proletariat internationally. She would not be opposed to mutual assistance from state-owned companies from Czech Slavia.
'Our foreign policy hasn't really hatched yet. But, rest assured it's Communist states first, and a firm line against capitalism and capitalist countries. We will be working very closely with Czech Slavia as you were our allies in one of our glorious fights against capitalism. As a base for Nicoleizian planes during our battle with Inquista over Reitzmag, Czech Slavia deserves all the praise and all of the support of the UNSR and it will be lauded in history, in the history of workers.'

"Oh, but comrade Sanders, you must have must have misunderstood what I meant, I never proposed dealing with the AÉN with any illegitimate means." Černá responded and Sova followed her up "But leaving an opportunists elements inside of the party is poisoning the party. Perhaps it would be best, to expulse the leaders of AÉN from the party, and let them form their own after the elections. Let them compete with you, but don't let them poison the party." after his speech prime minister Černá continued "That way you could even please other European countries that are asking for multi-party elections and promised a recognition if such elections do take part in the future. But that is just our suggestion, we urge you to consider it."
"A firm line against capitalism and capitalist countries, there is nothing wrong with such approach, but we must keep in mind that keeping good relations in the EU is also very important for all the countries. And must importantly, any war that would send our workers to an early graves and make the parents cry for their children must be avoided. Are we an agreement on that?" Černá finished. -
'I think that the AÉN are still part of our Communist family, despite some bad ideas. We also do not have the power to expel them, more than they have the power to expel us.'
'I am, above all in favour of peace. I will be firm against capitalists without endangering the lives of people. We are, in theory, in favour of rejoining the European Union and fostering relations, ensuring that there is a new PEL councillor.'

Prime minister Černá and president Sova excused themselves for a moment. But both quickly returned. Černá said: " I very much thank you for your visit dear comrade Sanders, I must go now, but it was very inspirational meeting you, I wish you well in the elections." And with that she extended a hand to him and left the room.
"Well my friend" Sova said "I think we are in agreement on the basics, and I hope I will get to invite you again. I of course also would like to wish you well in the elections. But before you go, if you would allow, I would like to award you with the Order of Friendship. If you would follow me, please." -
Bernie accepted the award graciously and thanked the Czech people for all their hard work in fighting the oppression of workers.
