Trevor Rayne from the Revolutionary Communist Group said the Kurdish liberation struggle is crucial for progress in the Middle East.

Trevor Rayne from the Revolutionary Communist Group and from the editorial board of its paper Fight Racism! Fight Imperialism! has been interviewed by Journalist Erem Kansoy with support of Peace in Kurdistan Campaign.

Rayne has written on the Kurdish people’s struggles since the 1980s and worked for many years with Estella Schmid for Peace in Kurdistan. They travelled together in August 1991 to the Mahsum Korkmaz Academy where they met Abdullah Ocalan and other Kurdish leaders.

The RCG’s publications have stressed the importance of the Kurdish liberation struggle for any progress in the Middle East. They have consistently supported the Palestinian struggle, the movement in Venezuela and the gains of the Cuban revolution.
