Kathmandu, Nov 13: Former Prime Minister and coordinator of the Nepali Communist Party, Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’, will spend five days in Russia.
Prachanda departed for Moscow, the Russian capital, today, accompanied by his chief personal secretary, Gopal Prasad Acharya. They are scheduled to arrive in Moscow at 11:30 pm local time.
He will attend the World Conference titled ‘For the Freedom of Nations’, being organised in Moscow by the All-Russian Political Party from November 14 to 17. The conference is expected to bring together communist leaders from around the world.
The conference aims to oppose efforts by powerful nations to expand their economic, political and strategic influence over weaker and developing countries.
The organisers argue that every country should have the right to determine its own political system, development path and national policies. They have organised similar conferences in the past.
In 2024, an international conference titled ‘For the Freedom of Nations and a Just World’ was also held in Moscow. It advocated a multipolar world order rather than the dominance of the United States and Western powers, while seeking greater political and economic cooperation among developing countries and nations of the Global South.
The report clarifies that the All Russian Political Party is not a single political party but a grouping of political parties operating across Russia.
According to Prachanda’s personal secretary, Keshav Rawal, he will return to Nepal after completing his five-day visit.
During his stay, Prachanda will participate in the conference and hold other meetings.
He is scheduled to arrive back in Nepal on November 19.
