Parties and organizations from other countries greeted the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) on the occasion of its 57th anniversary on December 26, 2025. They recognized the Party’s nearly six decades of leadership of the Filipino people’s national democratic revolution.

Well wishers included the Communist Party of Canada (Marxist-Leninist), Communist Party of Australia (Marxist-Leninist), Anti-Imperialist Action (AIA) Ireland, and Friends of the Filipino People in Struggle (FFPS).

“We congratulate you on another year of steadfast commitments, struggle and bold actions to uphold the cause of the Filipino people at home and also abroad,” CPC (ML) national leader Anna Di Carlo said. She recognized the CPP’s efforts despite extremely difficult conditions to achieve victories toward the Filipino nation’s full liberation.

According to AIA Ireland, the CPP-led struggle can now be regarded as one of the world’s most advanced revolutionary movements. “The cadres of the CPP and their comrades have stood undefeated in the face of intense encirclement and suppression campaigns by the comprador US–Marcos regime, and heavy foreign intervention from imperialist troops,” the group stated.

The CPA (ML) noted the surge of protests in the Philippines in recent months. The party said the CPP’s efforts is part of this surge as it leads the Filipino masses’ call for accountability and justice for the US-Marcos regime’s rampant corruption.

“Under the US-Marcos regime, the Filipino people experience worsening conditions with no way out but to pursue the struggle for national democracy and win national and social liberation,” the CPA (ML) stated.

For the FFPS, the CPP’s perseverance is praiseworthy, especially amid the severe counterrevolutionary wars waged by successive US puppet regimes in the Philippines. “In the face of these circumstances the CPP has distinguished itself for self-critically analyzing the situation, adapting to repression and rectifying errors,” FFPS chairperson Robert Reid said.

They also recognized the role the CPP now plays in resisting US imperialism, particularly in the war it is fomenting in the Asia-Pacific region. The US and the puppet Marcos regime are now using the Philippines to ignite a war against rival imperialist China. The US is pouring billions of dollars in military aid into the Philippines and conducting frequent and large-scale war games.

Messages from these parties and organizations also honored the cadres and leaders of the Party who have been martyred in recent years. They said the martyrs of the Philippine revolution must be remembered, and their legacy deserves celebration.

According to the FFPS, the Philippine revolution is significant not only to the Filipino people but also to the oppressed peoples of all nations. “As supporters of the Philippine Revolution, we in FFPS shall continue our efforts to expose the fascist repression of the Filipino government internationally, to campaign against foreign intervention in the Philippines, and to give direct support,” Reid of FFPS said.

The group also stated that it will match this determination and strengthen the flame of unity worldwide as the Filipino people and their revolutionary movement rebuild and reinvigorate themselves.

The CPP’s effort to strengthen relations with fraternal proletarian parties and friendly parties in other countries is in line with its program in the field of foreign relations as outlined in the Program for the National Democratic Revolution (PPDR).
