RedSymphony resonance conducted an interview with the Minister for Foreign Affairs of Valoriana.

Greetings to all on this unique occasion of our meeting with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Valoriana. My name is Alexander Chenkov, and I work as a valorianian journalist for RedSymphony Resonance. It is a pleasure to meet you, sir.

 journalist: We would like to ask a few questions regarding the revolution.

Minister: Sure go ahead.

journalist: What were the primary catalysts or driving factors behind the recent revolution in your nation? 

Minister: It was mainly inequality, with many people struggling to pay rent, can’t heat their homes and can’t even afford to heat a can. Whilst landlords and energy companies make record profits at the expense of the working class.
journalist:  How would you characterize the current political landscape post-revolution?

Minister: Post revolution, Valoriana has transitioned from a capitalist nation with a constitutional monarchy and a corrupt government to a socialist republic, with power to the proletariat. The ruling party, the Workers’ Justice Party (WJP), is committed to the ultimate goal of a communist society.

journalist: In what ways has the revolution impacted the socio-economic fabric of your nation?

Minister: The revolution has completely changed the socio-economic, under the new socialist system, resources are allocated equally, healthcare and education are free and workers have greater control over profits. Income inequality has plummeted and wealth is redistributed evenly by the WJP.

journalist:  What role, if any, have imperialist powers played in either supporting or opposing the revolution?

Minister: Imperialist powers have consistently opposed the revolution, seeking to preserve oppression of the workers for their greed and selfishness. They use several tactics, such as economic sanctions, propaganda campaigns and interventions, seeking to destabilise the socialist government, but the WJP manage to stop it.

journalist:  How would you describe the current relationship between your nation and imperialist powers in the aftermath of the revolution?

Minister: Post revolution, the nation resists imperialist powers, who have recently cut ties with the People’s Commune of Valoriana (PCV). The WJP rejects their attempts to dictate our domestic affairs and take away our independence.

journalist:  Has there been any discernible shift in foreign policy priorities or strategies following the revolution?

Minister: Our new foreign policy promotes cooperation between socialist nations and forging alliances against imperialist and aristocratic powers, as well as working together for establishing a communist society.

journalist: Regarding ideology, does your nation align more closely with Marxist-Leninist principles or a form of revisionist Marxism?

Minister: Valoriana aligns closely with Marxist-Leninist principles, as the guide of the new socialist nation, but also supports Trotskyism, as we believe a revolution shouldn’t be confined to a single nation. Their ideologies play important roles in the WJP.

journalist: How influential is Marxist ideology in shaping domestic policies and governance structures post-revolution?

Minister: Marxist ideology is very influential in the WJP, shaping our approach to economic planning and international relations. Marxism helps guide our efforts to achieve true equality and justice.

journalist: Are there any notable ideological factions or debates within the ruling government or political spectrum regarding the interpretation and application of Marxist principles?.

Minister: Within the WJP and the People’s Assembly, there are ongoing debates and discussions regarding the interpretation and implementation of Marxist principles, whilst there may be different perspectives on specific policies or strategies, there is unity in advancing the socialist cause and building a better future.

journalist: in conclustion, it should be noted that the Western Maghreb was the first nation to forge diplomatic ties with the newly  Valorianan government. In your opinion, what part does the Western Maghreb play in the Orbis, and has socialism been successfully established there? What are your opinions on Hoxhaism as well, given its impact on certain socialist movements?

Minister: we think that maghreb play an important role in the world of Orbis, and socialism is successful there. I kind of support Hoxhaism, as countries should have their own path, but Valoriana's path is Marxist and Trotskyist.

journalist: Thank you so much sir, for taking the time to speak with us in this interview.
