Conclusions of the 10th International Anti-imperialist Conference and International Colloquium in Nairobi, 2026

On May 9—the historic Victory Day over fascism—and the following day May 10, 2026, the 10th International Anti-imperialist Conference and International Colloquium were held in Nairobi, Kenya. Jointly hosted by the World Anti-imperialist Platform and the Communist Party Marxist–Kenya (CPMK), delegations from anti-imperialist parties and political organizations worldwide engaged in in-depth presentations and discussions under the themes: “Anti-imperialism and Anti-fascism in Africa” and “The Drive into an All-Out World War 3 and the World Anti-imperialist Front.”

The participants reaffirmed that, amid a grave global situation where the flames of World War 3 ignited by imperialism are spreading beyond West Asia to the entire world, Africa has become one of the most dynamic fronts of the world anti-imperialist struggle.

We all agreed that the “Africa-France Summit (Africa Forward Summit)” to be held in Nairobi, Kenya, from May 11 to 12, is not a forum for innovation and cooperation, but merely a neo-colonial scheme of plunder by French imperialism to compensate for its defeats in the Sahel region and sustain its hegemony in Africa.

Reaffirming the validity of the conclusions of the 7th International Anti-imperialist Conference and Colloquium held in Dakar, Senegal, in October 2024, we, the participants, reach the following practical conclusions:

  • We strongly condemn the brutal fascist repression by the pro-imperialist proxy regime of William Ruto in Kenya, and will maximize our righteous international solidarity under the banner of anti-imperialism and anti-fascism against the repression of the CPMK, its General Secretary Booker Omole, and all progressive forces.
  • We denounce the ongoing civil war in Mali as a reactionary plot resulting from planned provocations by imperialism and its fascist puppets. We actively support the anti-imperialist liberation struggle of the Malian people and highly value the anti-imperialist, self-reliant achievements of the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) comprising Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso.
  • We are convinced that to be completely liberated from the shackles of imperialism and colonialism, economic self-reliance must be achieved alongside political independence. We fully support the just struggle of the African people to defend their financial sovereignty and break free from the chains of neo-colonial institutions such as the IMF, the World Bank, and the CFA Franc system. We call for the creation of a “Pan-African Extraction Watchdog” to investigate and expose all exploitative contracts by French and Western corporations, and we demand the renegotiation of all mining and energy contracts to ensure that Africa’s resources are utilized for the benefit of the African people.
  • We call for the total and immediate shutdown of all Western imperialist military bases in Africa. We demand that the International Criminal Court immediately investigate and prosecute the serious crimes committed by British and French forces in Kenya
  • We consistently advocate that the oppressed and exploited masses of both imperialist and colonized countries must firmly unite in a single world anti-imperialist front under the common goal of “Down-with-imperialism
  • We recognize the roles played by China and Russia as major countries within the anti-imperialist camp in contributing to the liberation struggle of the African people. We shall wage an uncompromising ideological struggle against pro-imperialist, revisionist, and opportunist forces that misrepresent China and Russia as imperialist.
  • We note that the war in Iran is serving as a catalyst, accelerating the unity of the anti-imperialist camp and the division of the imperialist bloc. In order to bring an end to the aggressive wars of imperialist and Zionist forces, we stand firmly in solidarity and struggle together for the victory of the “Axis of Resistance,” including Iran.
  • We consistently support the justice of the anti-imperialist and anti-fascist struggle being waged by the people of Russia and Donbas against the Ukrainian neo-Nazis and the imperialist war machine, NATO.
  • We will maximize our solidarity and cooperation with the anti-imperialist governments and forces of Venezuela and Cuba to demand the immediate repatriation of President Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores, and the cessation of US imperialism’s economic blockade and military threats against Cuba.
  • In order to promote unity among anti-imperialist African states, parties, and organizations, we actively cooperate with the Pan-African organizations that participated in this Nairobi International Anti-imperialist Conference, including DUP, WAPO, AAPRP, PAT, and LP-U.
  • Under the principle of revolutionary Pan-Africanism with anti-imperialism and internationalism, we shall strategically and continuously organize international anti-imperialist events in Africa. We will continue strengthening practical solidarity with anti-imperialist and anti-fascist organizations and revolutionary political organizations in Africa, while deepening and advancing the mass anti-imperialist and anti-fascist struggles across the continent.
    In every country, we shall intensify propaganda and political activities aimed at exposing imperialist war maneuvers and organizing and mobilizing the broad masses into the just anti-imperialist struggle. In particular, we shall actively consider the establishment of an alternative media network that will serve as a major base for anti-imperialist propaganda and information exchange among anti-imperialist forces.

The participants of the 10th International Anti-imperialist Conference and International Colloquium held in Nairobi, Kenya, shall do their utmost to strengthen practical solidarity and strategic cooperation against imperialism and fascism.
