DUSHANBE, January 31, 2011, Asia-Plus -- The main reason for recent unrest in a number of Arab nations, in particular Egypt and Tunisia, is a neocolonial politics that has replaced an approximately 300-year politics of colonialism, the leader of the Communist Party of Tajikistan (CPT) Shodi Shabdolov said.
According to him, the neocolonial politics in those countries has been conducted for 20-30 years. “At first glance everything is in compliance with requirements of international law, Egypt is a sovereign and independent nation, but it cannot fully manage its incomes earned from sale of oil and gas as well as tourism without consent of some countries. Egypt even cannot open its border with Palestine without approval of the United States, Israel and some other countries. This is neocolonialism.”
“To add to these problems, separate families have ruled these countries in their own way for decades, misappropriating national wealth,” said the CPT leader, “People know that the government collects huge revenues, but nobody see them, except members of one family.”
Shabdolov noted that the situation emerged in Tunisia and Egypt evokes concern of some world powers, because it is becoming obvious from day to day that religious radicals or representatives of Communist movements that were banned both in Tunisia and Egypt may come to power in countries of the Arab world.
Both these versions do not suit the capitalism-dominated countries, the CPT leader said.
